Book Reviews of What is Hinduism?
Book Review: an information-packed, illustrated tour de force of this worldwde faith
Summary: 5 Stars
You may have heard "Hinduism is more than a religion... it's a way of life," and wondered what that meant. Well, here it is, in full color.
This photo-packed book shows the reader the everyday life and ethics of the world's billion practicing Hindus, details the bhakti of temple worship, explains the much-loved home shrine in every home ( included is a complete home puja, step-by-step ), celebrates the warm hospitality which results from inviting the Gods into one's home each morning and consequently viewing every guest as a divine being, and finally explores the realm of profound tangible meditation practice, culminating with a revleation of the best news of all for one's soul and it's relation with God. A must read for serious students of comparative religion, as well as practitioners.
Recommended for teachers, libraries and schools. Last summer I used this book to teach 100 youth, ages 9-19, during a seven-day camp. Highly useful for such an application, as the succint, stand-alone sections are each a small course in themselves.
