This is a collection of articles selected from the multi-volume set The Cultural Heritage of India. The series is an eight-volume, nine-book colossus of 7896 pages. The series is described as a massive collection of the wisdom of India, gathered under the guidance of the Ramakrishna Institute of Culture to promote the study, interpretation, and dissemination of the cultural heritage of India.

A need was felt to bring out a smaller summation of the series which is the book we present here.
