Hinduism

Good Thinking has collaborated with members of London’s Hindu community to create mental wellbeing resources that align with the beliefs and teachings of Hinduism.

“इस नश्वर संसार सेबिना आसक्ति और बिना भय केसाथ मिलें। जीवन केप्रकट होनेपर विश्वास करेंऔर तुम सच्ची शांति प्राप्त करोगे।"

“Meet this impermanent world with neither attachment nor fear. Trust the unfolding of life and you will attain true serenity.”

Bhagvad Gita 2.56

With the support of the Hindu Forum of Britain, the Hindu Council UK and BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir – Neasden Temple, Good Thinking has produced a range of guides and videos to help members of London’s Hindu community boost their wellbeing and cope with losing a loved one. Some of these resources are available in various languages.

The five ways to good mental wellbeing, which are recommended by the NHS, align well with Hindu beliefs and teachings, such as advocating a sense of belonging and bringing learning into your life.

Good Thinking’s Five ways to good mental wellbeing & Hinduism guide provides practical advice on boosting wellbeing through the lens of Hinduism and with reference to sacred texts. You can read the guide in your preferred language by selecting from the options below.

If you’d like to print the guide, we’ve created a printable version (full colour is recommended). Please make sure your printer is set to A4, check the 'Print on both sides of the paper' option and click the 'Flip on short edge' button to ensure that the pages print the right way round .
