The history of Hinduism is often divided into periods of development, with the first period being that of the historical Vedic religion dated from about 1900 BCE to 1400 BCE. The subsequent period, between 800 BCE and 200 BCE, is "a turning point between the Vedic religion and Hindu religions", and a formative period for Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. The Epic and Early Puranic period, from c. 200 BCE to 500 CE, saw the classical "Golden Age" of Hinduism (c. 320-650 CE), which coincides with the Gupta Empire. In this period the six branches of Hindu philosophy evolved, namely Samkhya, Yoga, Nyaya, Vaisheshika, Mīmāṃsā, and Vedanta. Monotheistic sects like Shaivism and Vaishnavism developed during this same period through the Bhakti movement.

Rather than one consistent, monolithic structure, the same myth appears in sundry versions, varies with diverse traditions, developed by different sects, people, and philosophical schools, in different regions and at different times, which are not compulsorily held by all Hindus to be literal accounts of historical events, but are taken to have deeper, often symbolic, construal, and which have been given an involute range of interpretations.
