Hinduism, resting on numerous and varied scriptural texts obviously requies an encyclopaedic treatment. This book aims to give a broad outline of the prominent features of this religion. It aims at acquainting the busy reader with all that Hinduism stands for, and that as quickly as possible. The author succeeds admirably in giving a clear and precise account of the fundamental categories of Hindu thought in a very interesting manner.
If a person who lives in God becomes miserable, what is the use of living in God? What is the use of such a God? Throw such a God overboard into the Pacific Ocean. We do not want such a God!
-Swami Vivekananda
