Strange Stories about Hindu Saints Temples and
Historical Atrocities
Foreword
This book has a collection of articles to cater to the needs of people with different tastes. They can be classified under five broad categories. 1) Temples, 2) Saints and Miracles, 3) Stories about Gem Stones , 4) Historical incidents and 5) Anecdotes . I struggled a lot to find a common title to the book and at last decided at the current title after several additions, commissions, and omissions.
The story of diamonds in Hindu literature starts with Bhagavata Purana. During Lord Krishna’s days, the Syamantaka diamond caused murder and mayhem. I have written about it under the title Hope Diamond in another book published already. Since these are written as separate articles for my blog over a period of 12 years, one can open any chapter and read it. There are over 40 topics dealing with the subjects mentioned above. In some articles I have added my personal experience as well. Hope our readers also find them interesting.
