വിജ്ഞാനപ്രദം

Fantastic Book. Just like other Tharoor books, we researched, information filled.

In the last 70 years I have not met a Hindu. I have met Iyers, Iyengars, Bhumihars, Kayasths. Saryuparis and Kankubjs. I have also read why I am not a Hindu. But for the first time an illustrious Indian, proud of his faith and traditions has written a well researched book on Hinduism. I recommend this to all Hindus and all those who want to understand Hinduism. An enriching and enriching and ennobling book.

Started with good info but later turned for political bias and lot of mis information and untrue incidents. How can an educated person come down to this level for his political benefits

Worth reading

exceptionally great.

Good
