I agree on the first paragraph. But the second is out of touch with how people think about Hinduism in India, it's a mistake many people in the west seem to make with regards to it. It is not like Abrahmic religions where there are mandated precepts with regards to sins, it's closer to eastern religions in a way. That is all to say, most people do not think of Hinduism, and its being open to various truths, on a day to day basis that then informs how they traverse the world. It's all cultural, a backdrop. There is no "Catholic guilt" type phenomenon from people growing up being told certain things are bad and then feeling bad when they do them. Hinduism is really not thought of for the vast majority of people beyond festivals and it does not inform their corruption. That corruption exists due primarily to economic conditions, to get ahead of others due to the population. You see the same phenomenon in China which decidedly does not have Hinduism.
