The Heart Of India: Sketches In The History Of Hindu Religion And Morals

About the Book:- In this little book the author have brought together a few sketches of the things that are nearest to the heart of the millions. From the school of Pundits certain thought have gone forth which in a more or less vague form have become an integral part of the peoples’ stock of ideas. Something therefore has been said of these, but not much. The main part has been to show what has been the worthiest answers given by the Hindus to the great questions of man’s relation to God and fellow man. In the humble way these books shall be the ambassadors of good will and understanding between East and West, the old world of thought and the new of action.
