Essentials of Hinduism

Many wonder what Hinduism is, and are often astonished to learn that it has no particular creed. Indeed, Hinduism is hard to define, encompassing an infinite variety of thoughts within its fold. In this book, an attempt has been made to provide a bird's-eye view of Hinduism, with extracts from the speeches and writings of one who may be said to be the best exponent of Hinduism in modern India. The excerpts have been culled from the author's Complete Works.
