5.0 out of 5 stars Best to understand AdvaitaReviewed in India on 19 November 2014

This book explains Advaita Philosopy. And explains so succinctly without the usual complexities associated with philosophy. By the end Advaita is understood so clearly as if we have studied a lot of matter. I recommend this. Would love to read his other books Hinduism For Our Times and Classical Hindu Thought: An Introduction but are too costly, Rs 3K and 5K respectively. Hope and wish cheaper editions are published

3.0 out of 5 stars More pedagogic than devotionalReviewed in the United States on 19 July 2007

Honestly, I read a little here and there in this book, e.g. skimmed it. By the title I thought it would have more of a devotional nature, i.e. it would lead the reader into a personal experience and understanding of Hinduism. Therefore it was not what I was seeking. I kept it for my library because it will be a good book for reference and for the possible occasional indepth analytical understanding of aspects of Hinduism.
