Description
Guruda Purana is an ode to the dead. In Hindu ethos the dead is given more respect than the living ones because the dead can commit no wrong and with his passing away, all his misdeeds and sins also disappear.
This holy scripture also tells how the eternal soul can be purified by the correct rites and rituals. A must read for those who respect their dead ones.
This Purana will answer all your queries related to deliverance and salvation. You will be more informed on the body’s emancipation after death.
