Okay, this is what the Sanatana Dharma actually was built upon from the very early Vedic days. This is about 10-9th centry BCE. There was no such thing as worshiping. There were hymns and prayers to the 8 rulers of the 8 directions (dikpalas) and were considered supreme being. The concept of trinity and other gods, came much much later. Mahabharat was only written much later around 6th century AD. 330 millions gods were first propounded in Puranas, during the 1st-3rd centuries (writing assuming that you know the origins of veda, upaveda, upanisads and puranas). that's when hinduism really got corrupted. priests were telling us that if i don't puja so-so god like Indra, Ganesh etc., he will be pissed and put bad on us. well sanatana dharma never talked about anything bad. no harm is done to us, unless we want to. we do not gain or loose by whether worshiping or not. we just need to realize the truth and embrace it. if you can't, that is fine. you might just be following other paths to moksha, which is still okay. There is no correct path. All path leads to Moksha, but we have to completely understand that truth. it's like, if you start walking a long distance in a straight like (vector), at some point you'll come to the point where you originated. Same truth applies to the Universe, the mind the body and the soul. No matter what we do, we'll still remain the same, just more understanding of the truth. experiece is gained.. which is good, which may not be true for someone else. However one truth is for sure - i (my body, mind and soul) exist and i see other around me who exist. they are related to me somehow or the other, whether object, living, dead or illusionary. And by the way, hinduism does not have hell. None of the Vedas, Upavedas and Upanisads have hell. They do have the realm of bliss, where we are all happy. but it considers mrytulok, or the land of the mortals to be the realm of suffering, not necessarily hell... We do not have to fear the almighty, whether God, Allah or gods.
