The dark princess beholds a flower seemed to be engrossed, the batik painting of the beautiful lady is inspired by a wall fresco in the world famous Ajanta caves in India which date from 2nd century BCE TO 4th century CE. The batik painter has captured the basic essence of the Ajanta art. The artist has successfully reproduced the soft roundness of her breasts, the curves of her waist, the gestures of her hands. The stylish jewelry worn by the princess is a fashion statement in itself.

The spectacular stone figure of Maharshi Patanjali is given a refine and detail treatment with some deep sense of finesse and refinement. Patanjali is the propounder of Yoga sutras. Often Patanjali is identified with primordial Vishnu, or the early stage of Vishnu. He is also known as the Adishesha, the incarnation of serpents that provided recreant resting place for Lord Vishnu. Patanjali's feet are often shown as coiled serpents. In Hindu mythology Adishesha, sometimes also known as "Ananta" (The Endless One), is the thousand-headed ruler of the Nagas, the serpent race that is thought to guard the hidden treasures of the earth. Since yogic knowledge is the ultimate the secret treasure, many yogins still bow to Adishesha before beginning their daily yoga practice. "Salutation to the king of the Nagas, to the infinite, to the bearer of the mandala, who spreads out this universe with thousands of hooded heads, set with blazing, effulgent jewels."

The beautiful figure of the Lord Buddha is given a beautiful treatment by the sculptor with deep sense of sculptural attainment. His half-closed eyes reveal a deep sense of enlightenment and satisfaction. His typical hairstyle is given a refine treatment and the face reveals a rare sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

Description:

Most spiritual seekers have no real idea of what exactly it is that they are seeking -- even after having spent years chasing the chimera of Enlightenment.

It stands to reason that if you want something desperately you would take great pains to find out what it did for those who have ‘got’ it. So if you desire Enlightenment, it would make abundant sense to at least check out what the ‘Enlightened’ ones have to say about the state of self-realization. That is what Enlightened Living does for you.

In this book Ramesh Balsekar, arguably the most renowned exponent of the ancient philosophy of Advaita today and the author of 30 well-known books, presents you a clear perspective on the self-realized state, in his hallmark lucid style.

If you have believed the sage to be a glorified vegetable, passionless and neutered to all pleasure and all pain, if you have believed that he is in a never-ending state of cocooned bliss or if you have believed that there is some-‘one’ out there to enjoy that ‘blissful’ state, this book shows you just how mistaken you are.

To make its point, Enlightened Living presents an impressive array of Masters -- from Adi Shankara to Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, from Ashtavakra to Ramana Maharshi, from Jnaneshwara to Nisargadatta Maharaj and Sengtsan -- to share with you, in the simplest terms possible, the reality of the state of self-realization. Pointers are used, insights are bestowed and cobwebs vigorously dusted away till what you are left with is a deeply satisfying clarity -- which may or may not be intellectual.

The serpentine image of Patañjali has been beautifully carved out of stone by the sculptor. He is shown as an incarnation of Adi S'esha, Ananta, (endless one), the first ego-expansion of Vishnu. His primeval energies and opulences, is part of the so-called catur vyuha, the fourfold manifestation of Vishnu. He is seated on his serpent, Adisesa. (Adisesa is in fact one of the many incarnations of Vishnu).

There is an anecdote about the birth of Patanjali. While seated on his serpent carriage Vishnu was enraptured by the dancing of Lord Siva. Vishnu was so affected that his body began to vibrate causing him to pound down heavily on Adisesa, who consequently suffered great discomfort. When the dance ended the weight was instantaneously lifted. When Adisesa expressed his desire to personally learn the dance so that he could perform the same for the pleasure of the God, Vishnu was impressed and predicted to Adisesa that one day Lord Siva would bless him and he would be incarnated so that he could both shower humanity with blessings and fulfill his own desire to master dance.

On the other hand, a virtuous woman named Gonika , who was totally devoted to Yoga and Lord Shiva, the father of yoga, was seeking for someone to be a worthy son to her who could inherit her knowledge of yoga. When she couldn’t find any suitable one, she prostrated before the Sun. She scooped up the only gift she could find -- a handful of water -- and beseeched him to bestow her with a son. She then meditated upon the Sun and prepared herself to present her simple but sincere offering. On seeing all this Adisesa -- the bearer of Vishnu -- knew that he had found the mother he was looking for. Just as Gonika was about to offer her handful of water to the Sun, she glanced down at her hands and was astonished to see a tiny serpent moving in her hands. She was even more astonished when, within a few moments, that serpent had assumed a human formby order of Shiva. Adisesa, who it was, in his turn prostrated before Gonika and pleaded with her to accept him as her son.

Thus Patanjali is believed to be an incarnation of Adisesa and the stone figure depicts Patanjali in the Caturvyuha form.

Description:

“How can I tell if I’m making progress in my spiritual search?” “Can I speed it up at all, and if so -- how?” Answers to these and other crucial recurrent questions can be found in this book. But be warned: these answers are uncompromising and may shatter your misconceptions. Ramesh S. Balsekar -- life-long devotee of Ramana Maharshi, and disciple of Nisargadatta Maharaj-has been sharing his wisdom with seekers from all walks of life, for the past 20 years. Gently but insistently, he points to the fact that there is nothing anyone can do hasten his or her spiritual progress, because the individual seeker, the “me”-entity, just does not exist. The outcome of our spiritual search is not in our hands. Rather, it is in the hands of that power -- call it Consciousness or God-which turned us into seekers in the first place. All manifestation is a reflection of that same impersonal Consciousness, and it is That which is seeking and which does or does not become enlightened, according to Its own ineluctable functioning. Madhukar Thompson recorded, transcribed and edited all conversations featured in this book. Brimming with earnestness and authenticity, they stand as a vivid testimony to the modern-day seeker and provide invaluable insights into his/ her predicament. The text is illustrated with a series of cartoons which underscore key aspects of Sri Balsekar’s teaching. They ensure that the book, and the seeking itself, are lively experiences, full of enjoyment and liberally sprinkled with laughter.

Description:

“I no longer care if I get enlightened or not. In fact, I don’t care even if I do care !” Such is the seeker’s attitude just prior to the occurrence of enlightenment, according to Ramesh S. Balsekar -- a life-long devotee of Ramana Maharshi and disciple of Nisargadata Maharaj. This book -- the sequel to Enlightenment May or May not Happen-deals with a wide range of topics including karma, reincarnation, the nature of manifestation, the guru-disciple relationship and the contrast between enlightened and unenlightened experience. The central theme, however, is the spiritual search and what can or cannot be done to speed up its progress. All conversations featured in this book were recorded, transcribed and edited by Madhukar Thomson. Brimming with earnestness and authenticity, they document Ramesh’s unique ability to adapt ancient Advaita Vedanta teachings to suit the predicament of the modern-day seeker. The text is illustrated by a series of cartoons which serve to remind us that even the serious business of spirituality has its funny side, and which ensure that the book, and the seeking itself, are lively experiences, full of enjoyment and liberally sprinkled with laughter.

Description

Sati, meaning `true` was one of the daughters of Daksha. Sati is a Hindu goddess of marital felicity and long life and is worshipped by all Hindu women for the long life of their husbands. Sati is the first consort of Lord Shiva and his second wife is Parvati, the incarnation of Sati. In the Puranas it is mentioned that Sati lures Shiva from leading a lonely life into creative involvement in the world. Sati or Dakshayani is also known as Uma, Aparna and Sivakamini. She was named Gauri for her fair and golden complexion. She is also known as Dakshayani for being the daughter of Daksha. To win the heart of Lord Shiva, Sati abandoned the lap of royal luxury and went to the forest, where she devoted herself to austerities and the worship of Shiva. After a long time of rigorous penance, Shiva was finally pleased with Sati`s devotion and married her much against the wishes of Daksha. Daksha being an arrogant king cut off all his relations with Sati and deprived her from his family. Later, Daksha once organized a huge Yajna to which all the Gods were invited, except Sati and Shiva. Sati went to the Yagnya against the wishes of Lord Shiva. Shiva then provided her with a guide to attend the Yajna. Sati was greeted coldly by her father Daksha. They were soon in the midst of a heated argument about the demerits of Shiva. Daksha criticized Shiva in the face of all gods. Sati could not stand such abuse and she immolated herself. When Lord Shiva came to know about this devastation, he was furious. He created Virabhadra and Bhadrakali, two fierce creatures who wreaked chaos and disorder in the Yajna area. Everyone present in the Yajna along with Daksha was terrified. An enraged Lord Shiva performed the fearsome Tandava dance with Sati`s charred body on his shoulders. During this dance, Sati`s body came apart and fell into pieces at different places on earth and these places came to be famous pilgrimage sites for Hindus.

Lord Shiva carrying the body of Goddess Sati , a beautiful sculpture that speaks a thousand words.The sculpture indicates about a story from Lord Shiva's life,according to the legend Daksha the son of Brahma ( the creator god), was a proud and haughty king. Daksha prayed to the Mother Goddess that She be born as his daughter. The Mother Goddess agreed on the condition that he would never displease her. He acquiesced and so She was born as his daughter Sati. Sati fell in love with Lord Shiva and married him against her father's wishes, though daksha hated Shiva. Once daksha organized a great yajna (sacred fire ceremony) and to slight Shiva does not invite him. When Sati heard that her father was holding a ceremony, She wanted to go despite not being invited. She thought that she was family and did not need a special invitation.Shiva cautioned her that only misery would result of her going uninvited but she was adamant. So Shiva reluctantly gave her permission but requested her to maintain her composure in the face of insults that daksha would heap upon him.

There was none to welcome her at her father’s residence. And worse still, she was openly insulted by her father and his party. Instead of correcting himself, daksha humiliated Sati also, for marrying a tribal brute. Unable to bear the insult Sati proclaimed that she is giving up her life and in front of an astounded audience she stepped into the sacrificial fire. News of this ill-treatment and the demise of Sati reached to Lord Siva. He summoned Veerabhadra (wrathful lieutenant) and ordered him to make a clean sweep of the Yajna and the participants thereof. Accompanied by a battalion of ghouls he went to the site of the ceremony. All daksha's men were killed including daksha himself whose head was severed. Then Shina began stalking the three worlds while holding Sati’s body. The other Gods approached Lord Vishnu (the preserver) who was also present at the ceremony for help as they were afraid of LordShiva’s rage.

Lord Vishnu realized that it was too late to reason with Shiva. He let loose His chakra or disc like weapon and cut up Sati’s body into pieces. The various parts of Her body got scattered on fifty one places all over India and wherever a part of Sati’s body fell became a Shakti Peeth or sacred abode of the goddess, devotees built a shrine to the Goddess Shakti. These shrines enjoy a large following today.
