But I recently starting studying Hinduism and I really want to study it more and more. The problem, there seems to be so much material out there that I wasnt sure where to start.
For example, Im interested in studying the vedas, but I dont know which one to start with or if it would even make sense to me at this time.
I love to read and study, Im just overwhelmed. Help! lol
What books and scriptures should I start with?
At this point I only know the sheer basics of Hinduism.
Namaste,
Welcome.
It is nice to know that you are interested in the Vedas but I would say it is better to begin with a bit simpler scriptures.
There are many books but if you could tell some more details like the deity you like or the name of a particular system/tradition/ideas(ex.Vedanta,Yoga,Vaishnava,Shaiva etc.) then members can suggest appropriate literature.
