Why Hindu Standards

Sanatana Hindu Dharma is not just a religion, it is a greater science. Hinduism is the most sophisticated, scientific representation of existential truths catered to every unique system of thought capable by the human mind. For the last two decades the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism Jagatguru Mahasannidhanam His Divine Holiness Bhagavan Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam has been reviving all the aspects of Hindu tradition which give life-solutions to all problems. Furthering His mission and vision of supporting humanity with the best of what Hinduism has to offer, His Divine Holiness Bhagavan Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam has guided Hindu Compliance System (HCS) to formulate these life-solutions from the Veda-Agamas in form of user-friendly Hindu Standards.

What are Veda-Agamas?

Mahadeva’s silence is Upanishads. His words are Agamas.
- S.P.H. J.G.M. Nithyananda Paramashivam.

The Veda-Agamas are Hindu source scriptures that were revealed by Paramashiva (or Mahadeva - the primordial Hindu Divinity) Himself. As per records, they are more than 60,000 years old and their exact age is unknown. The Vedas are the pure science and the Agamas are the applied sciences in the form of Yogic science, knowledge sciences, spiritual lifestyle science, and science of rituals.

Standards from Veda-Agamas were used by 33% of humanity

For the past 10,000 years of recorded history, Hindu Standards derived from the Veda-Agamas were internationally accepted by all ancient Hindu nations (such as modern-day, India, Nepal, Indonesia, etc). These Hindu nations constituted more than 33% of entire mankind. Even today, Hindus worldwide accept the Veda-Agamas for their respective sects.

The principles given by Sadāshiva, received by Devi, adopted by Vishnu, to run this Universe is Agama
- S.P.H. J.G.M. Nithyananda Paramashivam.

In Hinduism, there are more than 10,000 Agamas. All Agamas were revealed by Paramashiva, this includes Agamas not just for Shaivism but also for all sects of Hinduism.

What is considered a Hindu Standard?

HCS compiles the trillions of verses of the Veda-Agamas into easy to apply, user-friendly documents called Hindu Standards.

Hindu Standards are repeatable, harmonized, agreed, and documented way of doing something as per Hinduism. A Hindu Standard contains technical specifications and precise criteria designed to be used consistently as a rule, guideline, or definition. Hindu Standards provide the fundamental concepts, principles for sustainable solutions for quality control & management (QCM) as per the Veda-agamas. Hindu Standards are applicable to all organizations, regardless of size, complexity, or business model.

Standards, in general, can be thought of as the collection of methods and formula that describes the best way of doing something. Hindu Standards are the best way of doing something as per Hinduism and at the same time progressing on the path of Living Enlightenment (Jeevanmukti) - the ultimate liberation while living in the body - the foremost purpose of human birth.
