Great buy!

This book provided me with a lot of the answers I was looking for when trying to decide how to witness to my Indian family members. The author doesn't merely tell you verbatim what to say but he equips you with the background knowledge of the religion and how you can use that in conjuction with what you know about Christianity to effectively witness to a devout Hindu. The book was brand new just as the seller stated and it arrived on time and there was even a papyrus bookmark inside!

thorough and helpful

I appreciated Mr. Thirumalai's book. It was well written. It is not a dry theological treatise, but a thought provoking essay. It is written for the lay person, yet would be stimulating for the scholar. He wedded practical and profound insights together like a gifted writer. I was impressed with his use of biblical passages and hermeneutical explanations. I personally did a lot of highlighting as I read the book. Chapter after chapter the religion of Hinduism is explained in a wise and compassionate manner. Whether the subject is Karma, exorcism, rituals, salvation, or the daily life of Hindus, the author unfolds the mystery of the religion, yet does so with a heart for the Gospel. I highly recommend this book as a thorough covering of the issues needed to get a handle on basic Hinduism. I applaud Mr. Thirumalai for this endeavor.
