BOOK SUMMARY

This selection from the Rigveda oldest of the four Vedas has been meticulously translated by the author giving special attention to the metre of the verse. He has been able to bring out the essence of the verses in poetic form unlike many previous translations which have only managed to give us a simple rendition of the same in prose. With introductions to each group of verses and explanations as to the Deity that has been invoked he has succeeded to clarify any kind of misconceptions that may trouble the reader as to the context of each group of hymns. When we read through the verses we are able to comprehend the depth of thought behind the composition of these ritual verses. Who were the main deities? What was their relevance in the larger picture? What were the origins of the Deities mentioned? To what extent did these verses include other civilizations? These and many more questions are answered by this small volume.
