Tales From Ancient Hindu Religious Texts - CP Balachandran Nair
Tales From Ancient Hindu Religious Texts - CP Balachandran Nair is a paperback for readers who want to go a little deeper than a quick summary. Runs to about 373 pages, so it's suited to slow, reflective reading – a few pages at a time, ideally with a cup of chai nearby.
What it's about
In ancient India, the Gurukula system cultivated disciplined students who mastered their minds and grasped concepts such as Prakriti, Purusha, and the four Vedas. Under the guidance of their Guru, they explored the Self and Ultimate Reality through meditation and morality. Today, however, morality has declined, and invoking God is often seen as unsuitable. The ancient teaching of "Satyam Vada, Dharmam Chara" (speak the truth, abide by dharma) is largely absent, and students seem more focused on pleasure and luxury.CP Balachandran Nair
