I am Not a one to decide work done by swamiji is good or not. I am just writing this to encourage the ones who want to start reading this. This book gives a complete and very good proved pictures of all the dharmas and tradition in our religion. The way swamiji completes each topic is fabulous with a proof in 3 to 4 different ways. Many things mentioned in the book are must understand by all the hindus and understand what is the scientific reason to follow that

We need a simple yet profound description of what the Vedas, Upanishads and prayers ordain, what are their inner secrets,
His holiness Chandrasekharendra Saraswati Swami known as Periyava (Respected elder in Tamil) has described all these in simple terms,
If you want to understand what bhakti is, what sanatan dharma is, Grab this book!

Great description of the Hindu dharma. Swamiji subscribes to the varnashrama dharma and has his own theory on the demise of the institution.

Comprehensive book on the Hindu system but has some of authors own viewpoints that may sound chauvinistic for the modern world.
