| Abstract: | Family law is a concoction of various personal laws, such as Muslim law, Christian law and Hindu law. But the primary focus of this research paper would be on the Hindu personal law. Every personal law begins with the phrase as to whom this particular act would apply to, but it has rather become a point of discussion as to whom the Hindu personal law would apply for. Section 2 of Hindu Marriage Act 1955 defines ‘Who is a Hindu’, however unlike other religions its application clause as given under section 2 is rather ambiguous and is still in need of delineation. Even the personal laws have failed to interpret the term Hindu duly. No one including the person from a theosophical society can fathom the appropriate meaning of the term Hindu. It is notable that the origin of Hinduism is still undivulged. This article seeks to trace back the origin of Hinduism, its relevance in relation to family law and to accentuate its distinctiveness that isolates it from other religions. When many seek to uncover the essence of this term, they often fail to consider its territorial significance, this term was never really coined to refer to a particular religion rather was coined to refer the set of people belonging to a particular region. This raises a question as to how this term acquired its religious significance. Hinduism always stood different from other religions in a way, when other religions focused on the manifestation of their belief on God, Hinduism believed in “Aham Brahmasmi” that sought to manifest one’s belief in himself, as it is believed that each person is intrinsically divine and the purpose of life is to seek and realize the divinity in oneself. This article provides with a hermeneutical interpretation of Vedas and shed the light on who is a ‘Hindu’. |
