DESCRIPTION:
New Enlarged Edition Though he is considered one of the foremost of India's philosophers, Shankara is also one of the most misunderstood. Much of the misunderstanding of Shankara's position may be due to the absence of a lucid presentation of his life and works in a comprehensive and readable form. This short monograph is an attempt to meet that need for the benefit of those who have no previous acquaintance with philosophy. Shankara was one of the most subtle of Indian philosophers, and though for him intellectual dexterity was not an end in itself, the reader will find some reasoning worthy of his steel in the following pages.

DESCRIPTION:
The story of a profound and beautiful guru-shishya relationship In the impoverished village of Rikhia, a forgotten corner of northern India, its primarily aboriginal Santali population subsisted without electricity, water, roads, or sanitation. Malnutrition, disease and illness were par for the course of their collective lives. Until. . . Today, there has been a 360-degree transformation in this community. You can see well-fed toddlers playing on quiet roadsides, calling out 'Namo Narayan!' to passers-by, older children cycling to well-attended schools, and everyone busy in a productive and positive way. How did that come about? That is the story Barbara Pidgeon tellsus and, in doing so, reveals the extraordinary lives of the two people, the principal architects of this change and their relationship to one another. One of them, the guru, Swami Satyananada, a stalwart of yogic philosophy, founder of the Bihar School of Yoga, and the other, his disciple, Swami Satyasangananda, one of the few women
sannyasins. This book gives an insight into both these deeply spiritual and extraordinary people from whose lives we have many lessons to learn.
About the Author

As an expatriate worker she always endeavoured to understand the diverse cultures she felt privileged to work and live amongst and would seek firsthand experience in their cultural and spiritual practices. Her many enriching experiences over the years led her to a rural spot in Jharkand, India where she met her guru Swami Swami Satyasangananda Saraswati who s story she had the great honour to write about in this book.
Currently, she lives in London researching how humans breathe, a topic that she finds incredulous that we know so little of and one that will be the subject of her next book.

DESCRIPTION:
What Is Hinduism? provides one of the most provocative, engaging and detailed examinations of this oldest religious and spiritual tradition in the world. Followed by over a billion people, including a great majority in India, Hinduism is the third largest religion in the world. The teachings of Yoga and Vedanta are followed by millions in every continent. Enriched with a profound pluralistic view, Hinduism emphasizes that the Truth is One but has many paths. Yet, despite its universality, Hinduism remains the most misunderstood of the world's major religions, partly because of its antiquity and the vast extent of its teachings.Acknowledging the importance of the religion and its growing influence globally, David Frawley has addressed the prime teachings of Hinduism, its role in India, its place in the information age and has compiled an exhaustive set of questions and answers dwelling on all the significant issues. This essential learning helps us understand our spiritual heritage as a species and the place of India among the greatest civilizations of the world- ancient and modern. Further, the book charts out how Hindus can overcome the challenges confronting them today and communicate their diverse tradition more effectively, making it an ideal book for the Hindu youth.

DESCRIPTION:
The ideology Secularism had taken shape during the European Enlightenment (18-19 centuries). Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru who had never used the term in his pre-independence writings or speeches, simply picked up a prestigious world form the Western political parlance and made it mean the opposite of what it meant in the West. The outcome of this perversion proved disastrous for the newly independent nation, as became more than obvious in due course. In pre-independent India, the 'Muslim minority' had exercised a veto on who was to be hailed as 'nationalist' and who was to be denounced as 'Hindu communalist'. Now the same 'minority' reacquired the same veto on who was to be applauded as 'secularist' and who was to be hounded out as 'communalist'. In short, the term 'secularism' in the post-independence period has been and remains no more than a euphemism for Hindu-baiting. The word 'India's' instead of 'Indian' has been used in the title of this book because there is nothing Indian about Nahruvian Secularism. In fact, the term 'secularism' in its original Western sense had remained unknown to Indian political parlance because Indians had never envisaged or experienced a theocratic dispensation before the advent of Islam and its state apparatus in this country. Even today, traditional Indian scholars do not understand what theocracy means, and how Secularism in the Western sense stands opposed to it. And this 'secularism' has not been defined as Nahruvian because it is shared in common by all political parties including the Bharatiya Janata Party.

DESCRIPTION:
Man’s eternal quest is a book about God: about God’s place in man’s life; in his hopes, will, aspirations, accomplishments. Life, man, achievement are but manifestations of the one omnipresent creator, as inseparable dependent on him as the wave is dependent on the ocean. Paramahansa Yogananda explains why and how man was created by God, and how he is immutably a part of God, and what this means to each one personally. Realisation of the oneness of man and his creator is the whole essence of yoga. An understanding of man's inescapable need for God, in every aspect of living, removes the other worldliness from religion and makes knowing God the basis of a scientific and practical approach to life. Topics include: healing by God’s unlimited power the University of yoga God as light & joy even-mindedness in a world of change reincarnation: the soulless journey to perfection.About the Author
Paramahansa Yogananda was an Indian guru and yogi, who introduced millions of people in the west to meditation and Kriya Yoga.

In the last week before he died, he hinted that it was his time to leave. He died in 1952.

Initiated into Kriya Yoga by Gurunath, a disciple blessed by Mahavatar Shiv Gorakshanath Babaji, her spiritual
awakening occurs in flashes of revelations about her past lives in various cultures, across several centuries. She sees how she has remained connected to her present husband in all these lives – as a mother, a cousin, a friend. She is nurtured and gains strength from the radiant energy of an old tree; ancient masters and yogis appear to her by a lakeside, and her daily existence is filled with paranormal experiences. Jyotii evolves not only as a spiritual seeker and a teacher of Hamsa Yoga but also as a more balanced human being who is able to meet, and help others meet, every adversity with courage, equanimity and grace. Along this roller-coaster ride that takes you
through the cosmos, giving you glimpses of several realms of existence, one link remains intact and steadfast – the link that binds the true guru and the true disciple. Includes Gurunath’s easy to practice 9 Ancient Yogic Techniques.
About the Author
A student of Philosophy and Journalism, Jyotii was open to any challenge that life would throw at her. Introduced to yoga at an early age, she practiced it as a form of exercise. After early marriage and motherhood, she grew restless as she deeply felt that life should mean something more. Looking for that spark, she experimented with
new age techniques such as Reiki, Magnified Healing, Osho Meditations, Crystal Healing and Native American Shamanic Rites. Her spiritual flowering occurred after her meeting with the Himalayan Kriya Master, Yogiraj Siddhanath in 1998. She now lives in Chandigarh, India, and teaches Hamsa Yoga and Mahavatar Babaji Kriya
Yoga of Yogiraj Siddhanath. She writes extensively for local newspapers and is an activist for farmers’ rights in her city, especially against forcible land acquisition by the state administration. She also helps national level farmers’ organisations to spread public awareness about their issues. She believes that in any fragile eco system such as ours, one individual’s behaviour affects the life of all others sharing that universe; hence each individual has an obligation to contribute towards the positive growth of all others.

With an increasing number of women joining the workforce, we are now busier than ever with partners, children, family and friends, often putting the needs of others ahead of our own.

DESCRIPTION:
'Kundalini represents the cosmic vital energy lying dormant in the human body, coiled around the base of the spine, like a serpent, asleep... When roused, Kundalini rises through the sushumna, the hairline duct rising through the spinal cord, like a streak of lightning carrying with her the vital energy of the body, to join her divine spouse Shiva in the last or seventh center in the brain'. The book, Kundalini, is an xtraordinary autobiographical account of what happens in the body and mind when Kundalini gets aroused. It describes the dangers and difficulties of the spiritual path and the intense pressure it can exert on the physical body. The practice involves classic poses, breath, coordination of breath and movement, meditation.About the Author
