About the book 'Amruthopanishattulu', he said that it comprises 60 'putas' of those lessons. He congratulated and blessed Narasimha Reddy for his effort in compiling such a book of great endeavour throwing light on the Vedas. Siva Reddy appreciated the author for not only reading and understanding the Vedas, but also for respecting ‘Gurus’ through his book. He said that the book was written in a simple Telugu language and easily understandable. He quoted Swamy Vivekananda as saying: "If you don't believe in anything, believe in the Upanishads.” He opined that the Upanishads are scientific as well.
