Shrutimantramala is a collection of Vedic mantras hand-picked by Dr R. Ranganji that portray societal, marital, basic, and universal values such as humility, togetherness, equality, respect for elders, and world peace. Starting with basic everyday principles and ending in world peace, it covers many seemingly simple principles and values that, when imbibed, help us live righteous and fulfilling lives. We can also learn that the devas in the Veda are shown in a deeper outlook. The Veda teaches us Dharma through these exemplary devas. More about this is given in the works “What is Dharma”, “Darshan” and “Veda – my passion”. Simply put, this pocketbook can be said as the essence of the Veda.
