The story of Shiva's marriage is symbolic of the perfect fusion of the male and the female principles which, according to a Hindu view of life, are the moving powers behind the universe. Shiva (the male principle), the Supreme Consciousness, will acquire the power to create and destroy the elements only in conjunction with Shakti ( the female principle). That was why Vishnu and others were keen to see Shiva married. Though the word Shiva rarely occurs in the Vedas (it does in the Yahurveda) there are adequate references to show Rudra(another name for Shiva) as the Supreme Consciousness. The Kenopanishad mentions UMA as the maya or the manifestation of the Supreme Consciousness. The story of Sati brings home to us in simple terms, the truth and beauty of a lofty vedic concept.

About the Book

Book 'Saturn: The King Maker' unravels the king maker role of Saturn in addition to Saturn's significance in timing various vital events of life. 'Saturn: The King maker', an un parallel work on the mystiques of Saturn so far, contains 14 chapters. First two chapters deal with the introduction of Saturn as a member of the solar system and its astrological connotations. Much dreaded ruthlessness of Saturn is only a one sided picture and a fuller understanding of this Graha requires systemic study. Various information regarding Saturn, its significations, and occupations & diseases etc under Saturn's control are vividly discussed. Saturn in Puranic contexts makes an interesting reading.

Next two chapters describe in detail Saturn's placement in twelve houses and twelve signs. Introducing various dimensions of different houses of birth chart we proceed discussing the appropriate results of Saturn's position in different bhavas at the time of birth. The enigmatic Saturn renders modified results when placed in different signs or Rashis. The impact of Saturn in various signs is carefully studied. How the aspect of various planets on Saturn, and vice versa, change the results to amazing extent and how the malefic Saturn becomes benefic are the subject matter of these two important chapters.

The fifth chapter unravels the 'Different positions of Mysterious Saturn' which narrates Saturn in Ascendant and Retrograde profiles as well as brief discussion on the positions of Saturn in 12 houses: as many as 26 states of Saturn are described.

Next three chapters deal broadly with the transit of Saturn. The 6th chapter discusses about proven principles about transit of Saturn which can determine the time of marriage, accurately and exactly. The 7th chapter deals with the 'Nadi principles about Saturn's transit'; expertise in which can make one predict precisely the timing of events. And the 8th chapter 'Saturn the Great Timer' contains detail event-by-event analysis of lives of great personalities and contains various rules with regard to predicting the exact spell of time interspersed with examples to explain the rules propounded.

The chapter on 'Saturn: The King Maker' deals with crux of the theme, the most marvelous and amazing role of Saturn in elevating one to the position of King, minister, head of the state or of the industries. On the contrary, adverse disposition of Saturn brings fall from power, miseries and losses which is the point of discussion in the chapter Saturn in the 10th house: Fall from power.

Next 4 chapters shed light on the relationship of Saturn with other planets such as Sun and Jupiter which play an important role in deciding events related to marriage, progeny and profession. Thus, in totality, the book demystifies the commonly held view about Saturn's enigmatic character and describes at length its constructive role in molding the basic pattern of life. It is a must read to gain comprehensive knowledge about Saturn and to remove the myths about its malfeasance.

DESCRIPTION:

जिसे हम प्रेम कहते-समझते हैं, क्या वह सच में प्रेम है? क्या अकेलेपन की वास्तविक प्रकृति वही है जिसका अनुमान हमें डराता है और हम उससे दूर भागते रहते हैं, और इस कारण जीवन में कभी भी उस एहसास से हमारी सीधे-सीधे मुलाकात नहीं हो पाती? दैनिक जीवन के निकष पर इन दो सर्वाधिक आवृत प्रतीतियों के अनावरण का सफर है: ‘प्रेम क्या है? अकेलापन क्या है?’ जे. कृष्णमूर्ति के शब्दों में अधिष्ठित निःशब्द से रहस्यों के धुँधलके सहज ही छँटते चलते हैं, और जीवन की उजास में उसकी स्पष्टता सुव्यक्त होती जाती है। ‘मन जब किसी भी तरकीब का सहारा लेकर पलायन न कर रहा हो, केवल तभी उसके लिए उस चीज़ के साथ सीधे-सीधे संपर्क-संस्पर्श में होना संभव है जिसे हम अकेलापन कहते हैं, अकेला होना। किंतु, किसी चीज़ के साथ संस्पर्श में होने के लिए आवश्यक है कि उसके प्रति आपका स्नेह हो, प्रेम हो।’

DESCRIPTION: 

गांधीजी की 'आत्मकथा' जो अंग्रेज़ी में प्रसिद्ध हुई; उसके असली स्वरूप में तथा उसमें जो 'दक्षिण अफ्रीका का सत्याग्रह का इतिहास' है, इन दोनों के कुल पृष्ठ करीब एक हज़ार होते है। इन दोनों पुस्तकों के कथावस्तु को पहली बार संक्षिप्त करके इकट्ठा करके प्रस्तुत करने का प्रयास किया गया है। क्योंकि गांधीजी की शैली ही संक्षिप्त में कहने की है इसलिए यह कार्य सरल नहीं है। एक बात और भी है कि वे सदा जितना उद्देश्यपूर्ण तथा महत्त्व का हो उतना ही कहते हैं। अतः उन्होंने जो भी कुछ लिखा है, उसमें काट-छाँट करने से पहले दो बार सोचना ही पड़ेगा। आधुनिक पाठक गांधीजी की 'आत्मकथा' संक्षिप्त में माँगता है। उसकी इस माँग को मद्देनज़र रखते हुए तथा स्कूलों-काॅलेजों के युवा-विद्यार्थियों के लिए यह संक्षिप्त आवृत्ति तैयार की गयी है। असल ग्रन्थ का स्थान तो यह संक्षिप्त आवृत्ति कभी नहीं ले सकेगी; लेकिन ऐसी आशा रखना अवश्य अपेक्षित है कि यह संक्षेप पाठक में जिज्ञासा अवश्य उत्पन्न करेगा और बाद में अपनी अनुकूलता से जब फुरसत मिलेगी तब वह असली ग्रन्थ का अध्ययन करेगा। इस संक्षेप मंे गांधीजी के जीवन में घटी सभी महत्त्वपूर्ण घटनाओं का समावेश हो ऐसा प्रयास किया गया है, इस में भी उन घटनाओं का कि जिसका आध्यात्मिक महत्त्व है इस कारण उन्होंने पुस्तकें लिखी हैं। गांधीजी के अपने ही शब्दों को चुस्ती से पकड़ रखे है। ऐसी भी कई जगह हैं कि जहाँ संक्षिप्त करते समय शब्दों को बदलने की ज़रूरत मालूम पड़ी है वहाँ बदल भी दिये हैं; लेकिन यहाँ भी एक बात की सावधानी रखी गयी है कि उन्होंने जो अर्थ दर्शाये हैं उसके अर्थ में कोई परिवर्तन ना हो। संक्षिप्त करते समय महादेवभाई देसाई द्वारा तैयार किया गया ग्रन्थ 'माई अर्ली लाईफ' विशेष उपयोगी हुआ था।

About the Book

Saundarya-lahari is a beautiful poem with spiritual, mythical and tantric principle intricately women into it. It consists of a hundred and three hymns in praise of the Goddess Tripurasundari. The first forty-one stanzas are referred to generally as the Ananda-lahari (the Ocean of Spiritual Bliss), while the second part gives its name to the whole book. The highest forms of worship envisaged by the Vedic seers are far above the level of many. Therefore, other suitable forms of worship have been formulated. One such is the Sri Vidya, worship of the Supreme in its feminine aspect. In this text, Sri Samkaracarya expounds that worship in its pristine purity.

Introduction

THE Saundarya-lahari, 'the Ocean of Beauty', eminently shares the characteristics of (i) a poem displaying the finest touches of poetical fancy, (ii) a Stotra, hymn, in praise of the Goddess Tripurasundari, (iii) a series of Mantra-s, mystic formulae, to be used by the Upasaka along with the corresponding Yantra-s, diagrams, wherein the Devi is to be conceived as abiding, and (iv) an exposition of the Agama-s and Tantra-s, bearing on the worship of the Supreme Being in Its aspect of the Sakti, Creative Energy, known as the Sri- vidya, embodying the underlying principles of Vaidika-dharma and as such having the sanction of the Veda-s. In its first forty-one stanzas it encompasses the Ananda-lahari, the Ocean of the Blissfully Sublime. AS the very names and the design of the two parts indicate, it points, on the one hand, to the way of approach to the Paramatman, attainable only through true spiritual devotion and knowledge of the real nature of the Paramatman, supplemented by the successful accomplishment of the highest Yoga of Nirvikalpa-samadhi; on the other hand, it leads in effect to the merging of the Jivatman of the Upasaka into the non-differentiated Brahman, so exquisitely expounded in the Upanisad-s and other authoritative works dealing with the Monistic ideal of the Vedanta, through the worship of the qualified Brahman, so well portrayed in Stotra-s, Agama-s, Tantra-s, Purana-s and the Karma-kanda, thus typifying Nirgunopasana through Sagunopasana in essence. A unique feature or the Sanatana-dharma of the ancient Rsi-s of this Punya-bhumi of ours, which has enabled this time-hallowed system of theirs to endure through the ages, consists in the fact that it is elastic and comprehends systems adapted to the capacity, idiosyncrasy and stage of development attained by the various classes of persons owing allegiance to it, from individuals on the highest to the lowest rungs of the ladder of spiritual evolution. The highest forms of worship envisaged by the Vedic Seers of yore stand far above the ken of the vast majority, for whose delectation suitable forms of worship of Visnu, Siva, the Sakti and other Vedic deities have been elaborated by the large number of Agama-s, Tantra-s, Purana-s, Itihasa-s, etc., all within the ambit of the Vedic ideal. and these have cap- tured the imagination of these classes and continue to hold sway over their minds even to the present day. One of such forms of worship is the Sri-vidya, the worship of the Supreme Being in Its feminine aspect of the Sakti. Creative Energy. which embraces two forms: (i) the Internal. meant for the more advanced. assuming the character of worship of the Supreme Being in the aspect of Siva conjoint with the Sakti, at the various centres of energy of the human body. passing through various stages on to the highest. eschewing all rituals and ceremonies; and (ii) the External. intended for the less evolved. assuming the form of worshipping Yantra-s inscribed on the Bhurja leaf. gold and other metallic plates. coloured linen or slabs. to the accompaniment of the repetition of particular Mantra-s made up of the Matrka-s. with appropriate gestures. postures. facing of particular cardinal points. offerings of Dhupa, Dipa, Naivedya, etc. - all with a view to acquiring special psychic powers. gratification of specific desires. etc. of the Upasaka, The former. known as the Samaya-marga, is based on the Samhita-s of the Subhagama-pancaka, the works of five great Seers, and does not in any way, run counter to Vedic principles. The latter, known as the Kaula-marga and dealt with in the sixty-four Tantra-s, although primarily intended for the worship of the Devi, has in course of time afforded scope for the inclusion of vulgar practices (Vamacara) smacking of Kapalika and Ksapanaka usages, appealing to the venal side of human nature and exercising a demoralizing influence on the votaries to an extent not countenanced by the Veda-s, These unwholesome features of the Sakta cult began to weigh on the minds of high-souled reformers of the type of Samkara-bhagavatpada, who soon opened a crusade against such practices by expounding the sublime truths of the Samaya-marga in their writings and preachings, with a view to uphold the beautiful methods of the Samaya doctrine and supplant the ugly features of the Kaula-marga, Hence this work is appropriately called the Saundarya-lahari, the Ocean of Beauty, washing out in its torrent the filth accumulated in the Kaula-marga and restoring the purity of the Sri- vidya in relation to its external forms and ceremonies. In this laudable attempt he seems to have been ably served, in a later generation, by Laksmidhara and Bhaskararaya, two celebrated scholars and stalwart mystics acquainted with the inner working of the worship of the Sri-vidya, in their commentaries on several works relating to it. Laksmidhara's zeal for the preservation of the Samaya-marga in all its purity and for the reform of the Kaula-marga is so great that he even steps beyond the province of a mere commentator and differs from the author of the original work in matters of detail, where he thinks his own personal experience of the recondite practices warrants him to do so.
