Hindu culture and concepts of Hinduism are one of the most interesting ones one can get across. The deepest philosophies of this world are symbolized in such simplistic signs and rituals which are done almost daily, that the outsiders will only keep wondering at those… But those who take interest in the matter and want to dive slightly deeper Hinduism has only an ocean of knowledge and wisdom to offer.
Why do we light a lamp? Why do we do namaste? Why do we wear marks on the forehead? Why do we apply the holy ash? Why do we regard plants and trees as sacred? Why do we fast? Why do we chant Om? Why do we do aarati? Such and numerous other questions are answered in this book. The writing has really excellent quality and explanations are easy to understand. This small booklet is one of the best books on this subject. I am sure every reader will end up enriched many folds if one reads this book.
Highly recommended to all.
