The purest gems lie hidden in the bottom of the ocean or in the depth of rocks. One has to dive deep into the ocean or delve into the rocks to find them out. Similarly, truth lies concealed in the language which keeps on changing with the passage of time. Man has to learn that language before he discovers that truth. But he has neither the means nor the leisure to embark on that course. This series of Ancient Indian Tradition and Mythology is a voluminous translation work by eminent scholars and will help the readers to acquire that eternal knowledge of truth.
