<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Hinduism''' (known as '''{{IAST|Hindū Dharma}}''' in some modern Indian languages<ref>such as Hindi, Bengali language and other contemporary Indo-Aryan languages, as well as in several Dravidian tongues including Tamil language and Kannada</ref>) is a religion that originated on the Indian subcontinent. In contemporary usage Hinduism is also referred to as '''{{IAST|Sanātana Dharma}}''' ({{lang|sa|सनातन धर्म}}), a Sanskrit phrase meaning "eternal dharma".<ref>The Concise Oxford Dictionary of World Religions. Ed. John Bowker. Oxford University Press, 2000; The term can be traced to late 19th century Hindu reform movements (J. Zavos, ''Defending Hindu Tradition: Sanatana Dharma as a Symbol of Orthodoxy in Colonial India'', Religion (Academic Press), Volume 31, Number 2, April 2001, pp. 109-123; see also R. D.
