Spiritual And Religious Software For Linux

"While some might assert that Linux itself is a religion, there are plenty of religious and spiritual people who use and love Linux. Therefore, there are naturally a number of software packages for various religions. In my search for such software, I have undoubtedly left some out, so feel free to suggest any I have missed. Most of the software is for the two largest religions: Christianity and Islam. Because of this, I have not included every software package for those two religions.

"Hinduism

"Primarily practiced in South Asia, Hinduism undoubtedly has a large number of Linux users.

"Quick Jyotish – A Vedic astrology program

"Linux also has support for sanskrit language and text.

"Buddhism
