I have now read the shastras for more than 2 years and it's been a delightful experience reading these shastras.
Start with Gita, Bhagavatam, Puranas, Upanishads and Vedas.
Remember these shastras and don't forget the characters in them. Remember these books by seeing the index and contents of each chapter.
That's how I read the Gita, Bhagavatam, Puranas, Upanishads and Vedas.
Now here comes a twist, if you are done reading these shastras, then I have a surprise for you.
There are many ankh books of the shastras and the best part they have all the same characters and stories from the shastras like Gita, Puranas, Upanishads and Vedas.
So, now here comes a tiny secret, the ank shastras and few small books specify where the contents are coming from whether it's Gita, Bhagavatam, Upanishads and Vedas.
Ank books mein zikhar kiya hai ki kaun se shastra se shloka aa raha hai.
Zikhar Hai!
Now the list of ankh Books are-
Bhagavannaam mahima aur prathna Ank
Sadhana Ank
Shvupasana Ank
Tattvachintamani
Dharmashastra Ank
Hindu Sanskriti Ank
Bhakt Charita Ank
Sant Ank
Santvani Ank
Shri Krishna Ank
Shakti Ank
Ganesh Ank
Hanuman Ank
Surya Ank
Shri Ganeshapurananak
Bodh Kathaank
Dan Mahima Ank
Sattakatha Ank
Veda Kathaank
Sadhan Sudha Sindhu
Sadhan Sudha Nidhi
Jeevancharcha Ank
Seva Ank
Bhagavad Prem Amk
Rama Ank
So the tiny secret is that they are all authentic and are mentioned where the content is coming from like Gita, Puranas, Upanishads and Vedas.
Now, if anyone wants to challenge the shastras then we have a proof. These shastras have been written carefully and the content that comes from them are authentic.
After reading the Gita, Puranas, Upanishads and Vedas, if you would like to have another round of shastras then the ankh shastras are all there.
Now here is the decision you need to make, whether you'd like to have another round of the same stories or if you'd like to stop.
The choice is yours.
But don't just give up on them, it's really delightful to read them.
The ankh books are just a compilation of all the shastras in a new way.
So, will you read the compilation, the decision is yours.
All the best!
Know Yourself!
