About the Book : The work which Pandit Natesa Sastri has been engaged in for so many years, and of which this volume is only one small exemplar, deserves every welcome and support, as much from his own countrymen as from foreign dwellers in the land. He is doing most excellent work in collecting, arranging and recording in concise and easily assimilable form some of the more noticeable tales, traditions, customs, beliefs, and ceremonies of the Hindus. And it is to be hoped that many others of his educated fellow countrymen will follow his good example. For there are mines of wealth to be exploited in this manner, and there is work for many scores of writers, compilers and translators. But nowadays, at any rate, he who runs may read many excellent treatises both by natives of India and by Europeans on various aspects and characteristics of Hinduism and the Hindus; and for a general workaday knowledge of the Hindus there is no more useful, and at the same time more interesting, study than that of current beliefs and practices such as are described by the author.
