Review
"Babb convincingly interprets the apparently diffuse sum of commonalities in various traditions that add up to form 'Hinduism' from the point of view of their function. . . . Babb's fundamentally important study illuminates aspects also connected with overseas Brahmakumaris."--"Journal of Asian History
