Synopsis
Book 1, Celebrate, showcases pooja and features complete walkthroughs of every South Indian festival celebrated by the people of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Book 2, Understand, presents an overview of Hindu cosmology and culture, toothsome festival recipes, and guides to festoons, kolams, and etiquette.

Here is the wisdom of your aunts and grandmothers, never before collected in one place – and for those who just don’t have the time, cheatsheets and choices between quick and elaborate pooja options are within easy reach. Infused with a warm, personal tone, Follow the Hindu Moon is a tribute to the family who worships together.
