The Eternal Religion

One of the oldest living religions of the world, Hinduism is also widely regarded as, arguably, the most accommodative—inclusive in its essence, despite the distortions that creep into any faith over time. In this rich and illuminating collection, Karan Singh, one of the most admired and sensitive scholars of Hinduism in our time, draws upon seventy years of his writing on aspects of Hinduism, to show why he believes that ‘the spiritual equality that [Hinduism] teaches is more egalitarian than perhaps any other concept known to man’, and why it ‘still has the power to provide inspiration and illumination to many millions throughout the world, whether or not they formally belong to the Hindu faith’.
