Book excerpt: Every Indian should know at least the essence of The Mahabharata and The Gita, irrespective of their religion because it teaches more of management principles in life. In this busy world, we do not have time to read even essential books. Also, most of the youngsters do not have the opportunity to read our scriptures. With that idea, this book was created to have a reading in 100 minutes. If you are interested and need more clarifications, you can always refer to standard books. Importance is given to express the concepts and morals rather than the entire story. In the end, even the principles of The Gita are explained in a nutshell. In fact, religion can only be experienced and not taught. This book endeavors to demonstrate how Hinduism has been wrongly quoted by many and it aims to bring forth the truth. There are so many myths also. When Atma is same in all living beings can there be a superior one or an inferior one. Even a dog is not inferior to human being. How can God separate human beings and bring castes? If so, is He a God? We can’t blame God for all the egoistic mistakes done by humans in the name of God. God has no form. But Hinduism says you can make innumerable forms as you like as everything is God. In Mahabharata all these questions are answered, including who is a Brahmin? Can a Brahmin by birth superior? Etc. The approach to various religions may differ. That is the nature of God’s creation so that there is diversity in everything. Imagine the number of languages we have. Like that, even though the ultimate principles of religions are same, they were modified simplified as per the norms of the local people. The problem with simplification is that it creates controversy. The advantage of simplicity is that it is easily understandable. People take only the problems in their hand and cause in-justice to their own religion and humanity. If people are egoistic of religion, they are one of the worst criminals in the world, because all religions teach peace, love and harmony.
