Hinduism Clarified and Simplified

Hinduism Clarified and Simplified is the best book on Hinduism written so far; and most exclusive and exhaustive one. Almost everything worth mentioning has been included in it. Sanātana Dharma, the Eternal Religion, is now called Hinduism. According to Manusmriti, it is Mānava Dharma: Human Religion, the Religion for all human beings. Hinduism as the Mānava Dharma wishes all to be happy and healthy: sarve bhawantu sukhinah. Hinduism as Eternal Religion asks all to grow from inside and absorb cosmic energy; to know the self and the Creator Brahman; and to get united to that Absolute God through pure deeds, moral acts, penance and meditation for moksha (Salvation). Read, think, and follow the dictates of sublime and divine visionary rishis for knowledge, control, balance, hope and faith; for complete living through dharma, artha, kāma and moksha; for health, happiness, peace, pleasure, prosperity, revelation and enlightenment; and freedom from the endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth. #v&spublishers

    (xv) Belief in Saguna and Nirguna: Hindus have different ways of worshipping, and believe in God without Qualities (Nirguna Brahman) and God with Qualities (Saguna Brahman).

    (xvi) Kaivalya Prãpti (Moksha): Hindus believe in eternal emancipation or liberation from the ties of the world, unity with the Almighty, or salvation through perfect purity.

    Without getting at the root of these beliefs one can hardly understand Hinduism and Hindu culture.
