Refreshing Insight and CandorJuly 22, 2007 This book provides intelligible and practical insight into the traditional spiritual culture of the Veda. While reading, it became clear how integral this material is to understanding the works of all traditional spiritual schools. Along with providing this insight, the author also challenges the status quo previously put forward by scholarship and spiritualist alike, giving the reader wider perspective on this crucial information. With the help of this book, spirituality becomes an approachable, living culture void of blind faith, dogma, misconception and confusion found in many current spiritual philosophies.
A great sharing of knowlegeJuly 3, 2007 This book opens up a whole world of spirituality for the reader. It is a complete and thorough exposition of the meaning behind the ancient spiritual texts. Though the author concentrates on the works of Vedism (Hinduism), his findings are applicable to all religions. If you're tired of having your religious quandries answered by statements like "that's just the way it is", or "we are not meant to know", or "the reasons are lost in the ashes of time", then read this book. It doesn't matter if you have a PhD in Orientology or have never heard of the Veda, this book will have something to offer you in your quest for knowlege.
Wonderful ReadNovember 12, 2003 A marvelous read which both challenges and informs. The author offers a unique take on interpreting the Vedas which has far reaching implications. Once you have read this book and understand the concepts, you are unable to read any scriptures or legends in the same way again. The writing style and text type does take some getting use to, but on the whole doesn't distract from the fascinating content. Well worth reading.
