With Forewords by H.H. Kanchi Kamakoti Shankaracharya and Swami Paramarthananda

Providing a wire-frame for the juxtaposition of the hoary sacred texts of Hinduism, the book offers a first acquaintance with them in a simplistic and authentic way – all peppered with bite-sized excerpts ranging from the holy Vedas to the Puranic tales along with meaningful insights that whet the appetite.

V. Krishnamurthy (b.1927), was a professor of mathematics for four decades and an author of several books in mathematics. Since his retirement as Deputy Director, BITS, Pilani, in 1988, he has been writing on spiritual matters and has also given numerous discourses on religious topics to Indian as well as foreign audiences. He has to his credit nine books on Hinduism and spirituality, the latest being Thoughts of Spiritual Wisdom. His website www.profvk.com contains a large variety of highly read articles on Hinduism, covering fundamentals, bhakti, jnana, Vedanta, science and spirituality, translations of Sanskrit and Tamil philosophical works and also videos of his lectures through the YouTube. The precision, clarity and an irresistible appeal to the modern mind in all his writings and speeches go back to a rich experience as a successful communicator of mathematics during his professional life as also the spiritual training that was received from his father from early childhood.
