NEWS, EVENTS AND RECOMMENDED READINGS


HINDUISM FOR TODAY BOOK

Check out this new book on Hinduism.  It's a refreshing new way of narrating Hinduism, in the form of a dialog by eight committed but very diverse Hindus.  Four men and four Women, having practiced Hinduism in their own way, talk about Hinduism very knowledgeably.  They compare their experience and thinking to other world religions and philosophies.  They pursue and arrive at the form Hinduism should take in this day and age.  The book is accessible to general reader who is serious about the subject.

There is a book description on the back cover of the book, accessible at the book exhibit at the above websites.  Tim Renfrow designed the beautiful cover and provided editorial assistance.  Thanks to many friends and well-wishers who made the book possible!

Ramesh was presented with the community service award by the India Club of Greater Dayton on November 10, 2012.  Again, this was made possible by the always sharply questioning participants of his classes in Bhagavad-gita, Hinduism, Vedic philosophy and Upanishads.  Many thanks!
