Life transforming book

This is an enormous work and very important too, and even though it is difficult to present to a "modern" mind David Frawley has done a great job. The work consists of understanding and interpreting the Vedas properly, which are almost 6-7 thousands years old if not more and are written in Vedic Sanskrit, which again is more complex to understand and interpret than regular Sanskrit. This is a book is very important from the point of ancient India's (true) history as well as is extremely important from the point of view of world's history as we understand today. It is a book that also provides the much-needed encouragement and foundation for anybody seeking a spiritual way of life.

A Must read book!

This is an excellent book which I would reccommend strongly to anyone who is interested in Hinduism or the history of the Vedic Culture in general as it gives both traditional and historical accounts of events in ancient India as well as the significance behind Hindu ideals and deities, the greatness of India's Rich Rishis and Kings! All Traditionalist Hindus should keep a copy in their own homes as it gives Hindus inspiration and glory of their culture, which they should be proud of as David Frawley shows us!

A very important book on ancient India

Challenges old notions regarding ancient Indian history and makes a powerful case for a new view based on new archaeology and literary analysis. A MUST BUY for any lover of Indian history!
