Overview

Hinduism is known for its mysticism, on one hand it talks about Self-realization by realizing the impersonal God called Brahman (metaphysical concept) and on the other hand, it talks about so many personal gods represented with four hands holding weapons, responsible for creation, protection, destruction and their adventures on earth. The philosophy which talks about impersonal God is called Advaita (non-duality) and the one which deals with personal Gods is called Dvaita (duality). There is always a conflict between these two philosophies over thousands of years. How two totally contradictory philosophies can exist within the same religion? To solve this long outstanding puzzle, I started exploring what Hinduism is all about, which has led to the birth of this book.

This book briefly talks about my life journey and my search for Truth, but the core of this book is dedicated to reveal the concept of God in Hinduism. This book has been written to convey the actual meaning of representation of Gods in Hinduism which was not revealed for the last 25 centuries. This book will surprise the whole world and change the way Hinduism has been perceived so far. This book describes every minute detail of all major Hindu gods and what they actually convey with precise scientific explanation. This book opens up new research opportunity in religion, science and history.

After clarifying the concept of gods in Hinduism, it talks about the core similarity between Hinduism and Buddhism. In the later chapters it talks about mind, self-awareness and how to remove our mental barriers and accept each other in order to create a more peaceful world.

About the Author

After graduating from a well-known university and working for world class organizations, circumstances forced me to shift my attention to some of the fundamental questions, which were running in my mind since childhood. What is life and why we have been always taught to run after something? In no time, I stumbled upon an unknown land, where only very few people have ever visited. I was taken aback by the nature of existence and beauty of life, all my questions got dissolved. Many people are also searching for this unknown land but not able to reach there, either because of wrong approach or because of misguidance. There is a lot of confusion in this space with so many directions, which are pointing diametrically opposite to each other. Therefore, I decided to clear some of the misconceptions and make it easier for the seekers who wants to know the nature of existence as well as themselves..

Are we living our life or due to circumstances, we are forced to live a life, which we don't like. What is important for us in life? Each one of us tend to see life from a different perspective based on one’s background, education, culture and family through which one has been brought up. We are in a constant struggle to maintain our perspective, while navigating through different phases in life. We never miss an opportunity to criticise or downgrade other’s perspective but have we ever questioned our own perspective and understanding of life. because every culture has its own prejudices and shortcomings, to be able to accept one's own shortcomings and prejudices is the first step towards finding the meaning of life. Growth is not something which stops after reaching adulthood, or after completing post doctorate. Growth happens when we start to understand ourselves as well as our role in this universe, thereby aligning ourselves towards the will of the universe. Thereby we can create a tremendous change in this world through our actions and can leave this world as a peaceful and lovable place in the hands of the future generation.
