Hinduism of the oldest living religions in the world, with approximately a billion adherents, Hinduism is both a school of thought and a way of life. Drawing from a colossal pool of texts – from the Upanishads and the Vedas to the Gita and the Puranas – the religion melds together a range of voices. Yet, given the complexity of its philosophical thrust, the contradictions in its discourse, and the sheer immensity of its bank of wisdom, Hinduism remains a mystery, even to its followers. This book attempts to simplify an undeniably complex belief-system, and sheds light on its eternal laws.
