While we analyze the changes that have taken place in the Hindu faith, we have to look at the changes that have taken place in the cultural, theological and socio-economic spheres all around the world in the past 2500 years. We see great Religions coming up and others destroyed as the political power of one community wins over the other with religious and social turbulence. There were many faiths, mostly polytheistic, including the Pagans, the Druids, the Romans and the Greek in Europe, and the Egyptian faiths and several others in the Middle East including the Ancient local faith in Persia somewhat related to the Hinduism. Many of them had multiple "Gods" and many forms of worship of God in a male, female and in some animal forms. Each one believed in a miracle of appearance of a Prophet, a Messiah or an incarnation of God in their community to uplift the society out of its sufferings.

Monotheism was preached by the faith established and organized by Abraham among the Jews, to believe in "One God" as explained by them. When the Jews were slaves under the Egyptian rulers in their kingdom, Moses appeared on the Scene to deliver the Jews out of the bondage. They accepted him as a leader who delivered them from slavery but still waited for a Messiah from God. When the Jewish people were getting the power and established a great community around Jerusalem, Judaism was popular. The Romans and Greeks were working for them for many hundred years. About 500 years later the Roman kings were invading the territory. Jesus Christ was born at this time who preached the sermons as the revealed word of God and Christianity was born. Many of the Romans and Greeks followed the faith and 500 years later, moved the center of activities to Rome and Greece as Christianity was established all over Europe and became dominant as a powerful social and political force among the Europeans. After this time, as the Arabs lost the power in their land, Prophet Mohammed had the revelation of Divine Truth and established Islam as a Religious, Social, Cultural and Political force among Egyptians and Arabs. He moved the center of action to Mecca.
