Abstract Religion has the potential to transform humanity from isolated societies into vast, complex, and urbanized ones. Human society undergoes constant change with the evolution of religion, which can lead to an increase in the number of religions. So, the conflict of religions is created not due to the multiplicity of religions but due to egoism and the false notion of man. Due to egoism, religion becomes utterly perverted, and it deviates from its essentials into non-essentials, from the observance of ethical virtues and the experience of spirituality to rites and rituals, sacraments, and ceremonies. This trend of religion is diverse in Mahatma Gandhi's view, and he believes that all religions are true, have some errors, and are almost as dear to him as his own Hinduism. His statements may sound somewhat contradictory, but the spirit behind them is that the universal, ethical, and spiritual principles of religions are great truths. However, the long traditions of religion, as well as some dogmatism, orthodoxies, and cruelties associated with the religion, cannot be defended. Therefore, Gandhi asserts that there is no religion higher than truth and righteousness. He rejects any religious doctrine that does not appeal to reason and conflicts with morality. This article will focus on the extent of his understanding of religion and discuss his views on Hinduism from a religious perspective.
