Summary
Kim Knott: Hinduism
Eighty percent of the population of India, as well as thirty million people outside the country, are followers of Hinduism. In this short introduction, Kim Knott provides a concise and expert overview of the major religion, as well as an analysis of the challenges it faces in the 20th century. The author discusses the most important issues in Hinduism, such as the central place occupied by the Vedas as religious scriptures, the role of Brahmins, gurus and storytellers in conveying divine truths, as well as the importance of hymns such as the Ramayana. It also touches on the question of the place of women and dalits (untouchables) in modern society. All this contributes to making this book a stimulating read, both for Hindu and non-Hindu readers.
