Written in a dictionary-style format, the book explains key terms, personalities, rituals, epics, philosophical ideas, and cultural practices, making complex subjects easy to understand for both beginners and informed readers. Authored by John Dowson and presented in this edited edition by Mahendra Kulasrestha, the work draws on classical sources to provide clear explanations of Hindu religious, social, and literary traditions.

Covering a wide range of entries from mythology and sacred texts to historical figures and cultural symbols, the book serves as a valuable resource for students, researchers, and general readers interested in Indian culture. Informative and thoughtfully organised, this title offers a reliable introduction as well as a handy reference for deeper exploration of Hindu heritage.
