"A Concise Encyclopedia of Hinduism" by Swami Harshananda (head of Ramakrishna Math at Basavanagudi, Bangalore) is a monumental work that covers a wide range of topics including scriptures, philosophy, mythology, religion, rituals and sacraments, pilgrim centers, ancient arts and sciences, and archaeology. It also includes details of Hindu festivals and their significance and the lives & works of people connected with Sanatana Dharma and culture.

It took nearly 33 years for Swami Harshananda to complete this work. He has given Hindupedia the rights to edit and publish its entries online. Below are the entries published to date.
