Hindu Syncretism

Hindu Syncretism is a form of religious syncretism characterized by the integration and mutual transformation of Hindu beliefs, practices, and symbols with those of other religious traditions, particularly Islam and Christianity, within the Indian subcontinent, resulting in shared devotional forms, hybrid deities, and communal rituals that reflect a distinctively Indian pluralistic spirituality.
