Prepare the sacrifices, sacred hymns, abstain from sex, eating meat, making money and meditate 16 hours a day because this week is The Smoothbrain’s Guide to Hinduism. Journey with us back to a far-away land, to a golden-age shrouded in the sands of time, to discover an ancient civilization shrouded in mystery and the origins of the oldest religion on the planet.
