SANATANA DHARMA RATNA MALA CHARTS
Some extracts from Reviewsof these charts are given below:
The Hindu, Madras:
An unconventional and novel series … each one of them dwelling on one particular topic from the vast spectrum of the tradition and philosophy … Some of the charts go into sophistications that are not usually available to a layman … Some are narrations from history and mythology … intended to be read, reflected on, thought about and discussed.
The Indian Express, Madras, New Delhi and Hyderabad
Novel presentation on the multi-dimensional aspects of Hindu spirituality through an unconventional, but yet, traditional, series of charts that reflect all the factors of Hindu heritage and religion. … The overall presentation proceeds from the grassroot levels to commendable depths with painstaking care to ensure that the ‘explorer’ does not get lost in the ‘mythological and spiritual woods’ The charts narrate with praiseworthy visual support historical and mythological vignettes crisply, briefly and without sacrificing thematic essence. The conscientious calculated and painstaking efforts put in this presentation-venture by the mathematician-scholar must be specifically appreciated … a highly commendable job.
Life Positive, New Delhi:
If you want to know more about Hinduism, but are too lazy to delve into its dusty tomes, here are useful charts for you… which convey the message in a glance .
