how do you suggest the books so easily...Is there any Hindu common place, where you people meet and discuss in Singapore ?

Yes, i attend Hinduism classes in Singapore. And we are given books/texts to read and materials which are used to conduct classes.

But thats not the only reason. I feel Hinduism is soooo large and diverse. I feel it would be usefull for any student of the religion to start from non biased basics, where they learn in general the tenents of Hinduism.

Once they understand the principles, they can then read specific literature of their choice like Gita, Upanishads, etc.

If everyone jumps straight into the specific texts without learning the basics of teh religion, it will be like throwing a F maths book to a pre school kid. They wont understand and it would destroy their quest for knowledge.
