Hinduism has no formal conversion into or excommunication from the faith. A Hindu views the entire universe as God's and everything in the universe as God. Hindus believe that each person is intrinsically divine and the purpose of life is to seek and realise the divinity within all of us.
Connect with yourself with knowledge and peace with various knowledge unfolded

Knowledge of God as understood in the New Testament is highly reflective of Old Testament conceptions yet also expansive with reference to the centrality of Jesus. Both Testaments represent theological knowledge as based on divine self-revelation—a gift of the Spirit.

Omniscience is the property of having complete or maximal knowledge. Along with omnipotence and perfect goodness, it is usually taken to be one of the central divine attributes. One source of the attribution of omniscience to God derives from the numerous biblical passages that ascribe vast knowledge to him

A Hindu views the entire universe as God's and everything in the universe as God. Hindus believe that each person is intrinsically divine and the purpose of life is to seek and realise the divinity within all of us. The Hindu belief is totally non-exclusive and accepts all other faiths and religious paths.

Hinduism is a way of life for many people around the world. The Hindu philosophy comes from a wide range of beliefs from scriptures and many other varied religious literatures. The Hindu culture is one that revolves around love and respect for others. For example, respect for elders is a foundation of Hindu culture.

In Hinduism, it is believed that God is one eternal energy, who can take any form or Avatars according to the situation and in the favour of mankind and it's also believed that a part of Brahman lives inside every single being in the universe or multiverse

The reasons for "losing of Vedic knowledge" are the following :
1. Vedas were composed by a minority of sages who themselves were a minority speaking for spirituality among the majority of ritualists.
Evidences :
Rig Veda 7.103, the frog hymn mocks cleverly the ritualists, but in a clever cryptic way.
The whole of Rig Veda purposefully avoids the elaboration of rituals, and the only ritual described is the "Ashva medha" (RV 1.162, 1.163, 1.164) seen by the most talented poet Dirghatamas Aucathya. The Aucathya is the only poet who is bold enough to describe and bash a ritual in Rig Veda. 1.163 and 1.164 shows the greatness of this poet's inspired words in debunking and demeaning the ritualism and asking us very cleverly to switch to symbolic sacrifices, to spiritual sacrifices. The 1.164, if you read any translation, you can see the whole of Rig Vedic mysticism in that. Such was the rebuttal to rituals from Rig Veda.
Rig Veda 10th mandala mocks the soma ritualists trying to materialise the life essence soma.
Yajur Veda, contrary to the belief enforced by the Brahmanas, are not about doing rituals, but to show how to symbolise rituals that were becoming popular during its period. (Reader can read even any worst translations of Yajus to understand my point. Just go through a full description of sacrifice without any prejudice, and you yourself shall find the deliberate attempts of Yajur Veda to symbolise them) For example, take the Taittiriya 7.5.25.
Atharva Veda too has similar instances, and there is no single instance in Atharva Veda that tells a mantra to be "used" for a "spell" or "curse" in a "particular time".
They are simply prayers of olden age.

2. Vedas are aliens in language and culture to the preceding scriptures
Vedic language, esp. for Rig Veda, is much more coherent in meaning and usage to other older Indo European languages than Classical Sanskrit. For example, when I went through a verse from Rig Veda "matsvA sushipraH mandebhiH stomebhiH", I found the word sushipraH being much peculiar, and translated by Indians and foreigners as "good - nosed" or "fair cheeked"
The poem thus reads as "Delight O fair cheeked, in the delightful praises". what has fair cheek or nose do in this case?
I had to refer to the PIE studies. The word shipra was related to "krifa" (Alb.) mane, hair and several cognate words for hair and an ambiguous word for jaw. Soon, it striked me. Shipra should mean beard. And beard is always a sign of wisdom in Vedas. In the same poem, Indra was asked to drink soma and give soma. Sushipra thus means sage, and is in harmony with the poem, calling Indra to enjoy praises when he himself is a sage who creates the poetry of nature. The epithet of sage is still common, and features in almost all poems of Rig Veda. Thus, this instance shows why certain ideas of Rig Veda are not comprehendible only by having nirukta or Griffith's translation in hand. (You can frown at me, but try to see the situation for real)
3. Vedas are maddeningly poetic that many of their poetic metaphors are not easily found in later scriptures.
