Synopsis

The Hindu scriptures are a unique blend of the subtle philosophy of Vedanta on one hand and gross, fetishist worship on the other. Hinduism appears as a strange amalgam of the highest classical literature with gods and goddesses, rituals and festivals, ceremonies and celebrations. The Hindus themselves are confused and confounded by this mixture.
