      Description

      Adi Shankaracharya composed a number of Vedantic works for imparting the knowledge of the Self. One of these hymns is the famous "Bhaja Govindam". 'Bhaja' literally means 'seek', 'Govindam' means 'the Lord' -'the Truth'. The learned masters, out of deep compassion try to wake up humanity. They invite us to open our eyes to a higher dimension of living. The whole text of Bhaja Govindam in essence means 'Wake up, seek the Lord and stop seeking the primitive and superficial things in life.' The compilation of thoughts presented in this book is applicable to one and all. Swami Sukhabodhananda in his unique style explains the verses with deep clarity and understanding.

          Description

          Ability is an important tool in life. Ability without commitment and awareness is like a vehicle without the engine. The Shiva Sutra enhances one's awareness in a way one sees an opportunity in a difficulty and not a difficulty in an opportunity. There is an 'outside reality' and an 'inside reality' of one's mind. There is also another dimension called 'spiritual reality'. To harmonize all of them is a great awakening. Ordinary being loves one's own 'psycho dramas' of justification, proving one's point of view, blaming, being helpless and this leads one to a state of inner poverty. To free oneself from these lower states of poverty and see them as 'errors in one's thinking' is part of being effective and experiencing inner prosperity. The profound teaching of Lord Shiva introduces us to a bigger container where one learns to be charitable to one's own self. This practice of making a bigger container is essentially spiritual. Dive deep into these mystic teachings. - Swami Sukhabodhananda.

                                  INSPIRATIONAL INSIGHTS FROM INDIA’S RICH SPIRITUAL LITERATURE
                                  Mind liberation is a process of unwinding through unlearning. A free mind is inclusive and absorbs more when in a liberated state. On the other hand, a tense mind has limited space for anything new. It clings to dogmas and detests change. Unless you learn to let go, you’ll experience shrinkage of mind space—in short, frustration.
                                  This is where the importance of spirituality comes in. Spirituality blends philosophy and psychology. Cutting across religious boundaries, you’ll find that there’s common groundin spiritual literature to inspire and lift your spirits when the chips are down.
                                  In this book, the author has included case studies drawn from real-life work situations to help you through experience simulation. Come and discover the ways to transform frustration into fulfillment! From Frustration to Fulfillment is a complete recipe for corporate and family management.

                                  SWAMI SUKHABODHANANDA is the founder chairman of Prasanna Trust.

                                      In these modern times, spirituality is a guiding light, an anchor to hold onto amid the mounting challenges and difficulties of the age.

                                      In the backdrop of a frenetic world, Rev. Dada J.P. Vaswani is a soothing presence who radiates love like a powerful beacon, effecting change in anyone who comes within his sphere. A mystic philosopher, he is a saint to some people, but to countless others he is simply Dada.

                                      Dada Vaswani: A Life in Spirituality offers an unusual viewpoint – a nonbeliever’s perspective, it takes a fresh look at spirituality. The author creates a mischievous being who flits about and hovers – doubting and cynical – observing Dada as he follows his own convictions with implicit courage and faith.

                                      Known for her adventure and thriller novels, Shobha Nihalani says that meeting Dada J, as she calls him, was a turning point in her journey as an author. His open heart and inner strength inspired her to grow spiritually and take on the immense task of penning the story of his life. Through this book, we are welcomed into Dada Vaswani’s life to witness his selfless service and dedicated mission to build love, forgiveness and unity.

                                      Shobha Nihalani has previously been the author of adventure and thriller novels. She decided to take a slight shift from writing suspense, turning towards the spiritual with Dada Vaswani: A Life in Spirituality. Writing from the perspective of a novice, she brings out Dada J.P. Vaswani’s keen wisdom with wit, logic and soulful sensitivity.

                                                      For ages, most of humanity has placed "life" and "death" at two ends of the existential spectrum -favoring one, fearing the other and continuously floundering between the two. Only when someone who has consciously traversed between both life and death offers to articulate some aspects of it, does humanity get a glimpse of what lies beyond the horizon of its normal perception. With his extraordinary insights, coming from a profound inner experience, Sadhguru reveals that life and death are, in fact, two sides of the same coin. It is only by embracing both that we can break the shackles of our self-made struggles and be set free. In his own words, he says: "Death is a cosmic joke. If you get the joke, when you fall on the other side, it will be wonderful. If you don't get the joke, when you are here you fear the other side and when the other side comes, you just don't know what it is about. If death becomes a laughing matter in your life, life becomes an utterly effortless process, there is no need to restrain yourself in the process of life, you can live your life absolutely, totally". "The distance between your life and death is just one breath, isn't it?" - Sad guru.

Accompanying them on this journey is Sad guru -a spiritual master considered by many to be one of the foremost living yogis on the planet. This is a book for those who stayed behind. It is a chance to make a pilgrimage on the page, travelling through the unpredictable but fascinating terrain of the master's words. Amalgamating discourses and conversations from several yatras, it is a blend of the specific and the timeless. This book is not just about the Himalayas and yet, the book would never have happened without the Himalayas. The mountains play a vital role in the text, alternately as context and catalyst, mood and metaphor. Without them, some of the questions in this book would never have been asked. Even if they sometimes seem tangential to the line of enquiry, they remain a powerful subterranean presence, eventually becoming the very bedrock of this book.

                                                                          Written in the early twentieth century, The Dance of Shiva was a remarkable book for its time. It discussed in depth the unique nature of the Indian ethos, understood by so few in the Western world and misinterpreted by so many. A collection of fourteen lectures, these essays on Indian art and culture offer a lucid representation of the
                                                                          opinions and attitudes held by Indian intellectuals during the British Raj. Ranging from topics such as music during Vedic times, Indian attitudes towards family, women and love, analyses of the symbolism of Nataraja and the many-armed gods of India, to the Indian concept of beauty, The Dance of Shiva is an effervescent account of the Indian experience through the ages.
