About The Book: Kasi or Benares: The Holy City of the Hindus by John Murdoch is a thorough exploration of Varanasi (Benares), one of Hinduism’s holiest cities. Murdoch delves into the city’s religious, cultural, and social significance, focusing on its spiritual role as a major pilgrimage site. He describes rituals, temples, and daily life, offering insights into Hindu worship and religious practices. While admiring the city’s cultural heritage, Murdoch, with his missionary perspective, advocates for social and religious reforms, reflecting his vision for India’s modernization under British influence.
