This work provides a well Written col1ection of lectures delivered by the author on various religions of India. He has given an exhaustive account of Hinduism, its main branches and its religious books like the Vedas, the Upanishads and the Bhagwat Gita etc. His description about Hinduism during various kingdoms is very fascinating. He has described Zoroastrianism, the Persian religion microscopically. The author has presented Mohammedanism, prophet Mohammed, the Quran, Paradise and Hell in an artistic way. Animism, the religion of wilder races, has been given an important place in this book. The description of principles of Buddhism and Christianity give mental satisfaction. The study goes beyond the ‘confines of a particular religion and propagates the fundamentals of all the great religions of India.
