  1. Ajey Dixit –

    The book gives great insight into ancient Indian religions. It could have been organized better to avoid some confusion, though.

  2. Satyam Shukla –

    It explores the topic well but can be a bit heavy for casual reading. It’s clearly well-researched, though.

  3. Venkateshapperumal R –

    Prasad’s book provides a valuable ‘from below’ perspective on ancient Indian religions. Some parts were a bit tedious.

  4. Om Ashokkumar Sahitya –

    A deep dive into social history through the lens of religion. The author really knows their stuff! Could be more accessible.

  5. Shubham Raj –

    A fascinating look at religion from a different angle. I enjoyed the focus on the common people, but sometimes it felt a bit dry.

  6. Kanishk Kumar –

    The ‘from below’ approach is very interesting! It sheds light on lesser-known aspects of religious life. A bit slow at times, but informative.

  7. Arosh Kumar –

    I learned a lot about the religious practices of everyday people in ancient India. It’s a unique perspective on the period. Recommended!

  8. Nishant Batan –

    Unique insights! The writing style is academic, but the information is valuable if you are interested in the topic.

  9. Rahul Meena –

    I liked the focus on non-elite religious practices. This book provides a needed alternative viewpoint. Recommended for history buffs!

  10. Sarvesh Maruti Darade –

    This book was an interesting exploration of religion. It could have benefited from more engaging writing, though.

  11. Garvit Sangal –

    Prasad offers a fresh perspective. Some parts were dense, but overall, it was insightful and thought-provoking. Worth the read if you’re into social history.
