Description
The interpretation of a religion from a [purely intellectual and academic view-point, however appealing it may be to the philosophical mind, rarely mirrors the true spirit of the religion.
This book containing the reflections of one who has all along been in active service in the field of Hindu Religion both in India and abroad, accomplishes the task admirably well.
