## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good
*by M***F on August 22, 2019*

Good book, but the book doesn't smell so nice yes I said smell. It came with a strong odor to it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Choose The Golden Book over all other versions, rumour ...
*by E***A on September 23, 2014*

Choose The Golden Book over all other versions, rumour says it contains the words of the gold plates given to Moroni founder of the Mormons.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent original Sankrit excerpts with English translation
*by B***R on July 17, 2012*

An excellent book, great-looking cover, thick pages and good binding (although I can't tell how long it will last since I've owned it for only 3 months). It contains excerpts of select hymns of the Rig Veda and is not a comprehensive summary of all hymns.The book is divided into 3 parts. The first part is by A. Macdonell, forms the majority of the book and has a separate chapter of hymns on each Vedic deity. Each chapter begins with a description and origin of the deity followed by a selection of hymns dedicated to the deity. Each hymn is presented in original Sanskrit in both Devanagari and Roman scripts, followed by an English translation. There are chapters to Agni, Indra, Varuna, Savita, Vishnu, Visvedevas, Usha, etc. There are also a few chapters on non-deity hymns like Funeral, Gambler, Frogs, etc. Although most of the prominent hymns are presented, a few important ones are missing, like the Gayatri Mantra, Wedding hymn, River hymn, etc.The second part is by Max Muller and also has separate chapters of select hymns on each deity. However, no hymns are presented in original Sanskrit, only the English translations are given. The third part is by H. Oldenberg and is similar to the second part. Many of the hymns in the second and third parts are the same ones in the first part, the only difference being the different translations of the authors.Overall, a highly recommended book by three Vedic scholars to get a good flavor of the Rig Veda.
