Hinduism ultimately destroys itself with its own dogma just as science always disproves itself—a common theme in eastern religions and philosophies. This is the concept that western culture adopted a little later due to cultural diffusion. They described it as a serpent or dragon eating its own tail for nourishment. They called the creature, Ouroboros.
