  1. Sayan Dubey –

    Easy to understand, but a little too simplistic for my taste. Good for beginners, though. I expected little bit more depth.

  2. Anjali Agrawal –

    While informative, the book felt a bit repetitive at times. Good overall, but not Pattanaik’s best work.

  3. Rohan –

    A thought-provoking read! Pattanaik simplifies complex ideas. Some parts felt repetitive, but overall, a good introduction to Shiva’s symbolism.

  4. Riti Fauzdar –

    Informative and engaging, but could have benefited from more diverse perspectives. Author focused too much on one.

    A wonderful introduction to Shiva’s symbolism! Well-written and accessible. I would definitely recommend it to others.

    A decent overview, but lacks the depth I was hoping for. Good starting point though for beginners. Can be read once.

  13. Thejus Chandran C –

    Intriguing exploration of the linga. I appreciated the author’s perspective, but it could be denser with information, i would have liked more context.

  14. Ayush Patel –

    Excellent book! Provides a new lens through which to view ancient concepts. I will definitely read it again!
