"Hindu" is actually not a religion. It is just what Persians and Turks called us, and the name got stuck. Actually, we call ourselves Aryan or Aryaputra (the Sons of the Aryans) and Hinduism is called Arya Samaj or Arya Dharma. Jainism came much later.

Yeah I know Hinduism isnt technically a religion in a lot of ways in the Western sense and can be variable depending on where you are. Deities can change from village to village. At least Jainism is a tidy traditional religion which can be pointed to as prominently using the swastika. --- I am I - you are you. These are irrefutable truths.
