The True History and Religion of India by Shiva P. Maiyas examines the earliest history and tradition of India, from around 3000 BCE to the present day. While many sources maintain that the basic tenets of India's culture and beliefs came from invaders and settlers from abroad, this book explores the inherent continuity of self-evident truths and ways of life that make up India's ancient past. The book reveals evidence of the diversity of spiritual, ideological, and scriptural strands that have developed and enriched the culture throughout its history. Maiyas explores how cultural pasts are often distorted to serve a certain purpose or agenda, and puts forth a case for understanding India's origins in its own ancient and traditional scriptures, texts, and rituals. He further presents the idea that the civilization of ancient India was built on a foundation composed of unity in diversity. The book's aim is to spread awareness and educate people about India's true history and its venerable religious heritage.
