  • ISBN-10: 8185300372
  • ISBN-13 : 978-8185300375
DESCRIPTION:

The Sermons and sayings of the Buddha are gems of “purest ray serene”,picked up at random from the vast treasures of Digha Nikaya,Majjhima Nikaya ,Anguttara Nikaya ,Uddana etc. It may be that there are numerous verses and chapters in these noble works that could be considered more illuminating than those selected by us.
But then such a selection as this, of its very nature, can never be fully representative.

The short pieces put together in this volume are not literal translation of the texts on which they are based. The writings published in the present series were not designed to be translations of the Buddhist texts. Our object has been to present in simple language the kernel of Buddhist thought in such a manner that the common man may be able to grasp it without difficulty. Therefore, the success of our endeavor, in our opinion, is to be judged by the reaction of the common man and not that of the spiritual mentor or the literary critic.

DESCRIPTION:

The wisdom contained in Seeds of consciousness and Prior to Consciousness emerged from dialogues with devotees, who came from all over the world to learn the mysteries of life at the feet of the Maharaj, until a few days before his death in 1981 at the age of 84. Jean Dunn, a close follower of Maharaj, was with him towards his last days. She observes that,”During the last two years of his life Maharaj did not entertain any questions pertaining to this worldly life and its improvement. He taught only the highest truth. Even one sentenceof his was like an Upanishad. He was very blunt and sharp in his answers and did not cater for anyone’s ego.

In fact, his stated purpose was to destroy this ‘Pseudo-entity’. To be in his presence was to feel the vibrant truth, Impossible to describe. He was amazing to watch …….One could only gaze at him in total love and awe”, says Jean.

DESCRIPTION:

Issued on the occasion of the centenary of the Mother’s arrival in Pondicherry in 1914, this album presents 120 selected photographs from the Mother’s life, many accompanied by texts from Sri Aurobindo or the Mother. Photos from her childhood and early years in Paris as well as a number from her stay in Japan precede the more numerable ones from her life in the Ashram. The Preface provides a brief introduction and creates an ambience for experiencing the Mother’s presence through these photographs.

More than 250 black-and-white photographs have been selected and arranged with a focus on one particular element: the powerful vibration that is radiated by the Mother's physical appearance. Most are original pictures presented without touching up or repairing any defects; they are arranged without chronology or theme or identifying remarks so that the reader is left solely to experience the depth and dramatic power of the photographs. At the back of the book the pictures are reproduced in smaller size with dates and some brief comments. The book is printed on art paper.

  • ISBN-13: 978-9383095612
DESCRIPTION:
According to historically reliable literary accounts, medieval India witnessed a massive religiousrenaissance centered largely on the popular mysticism of the congregational chanting and singing of the names of God. This litany often took the form of the Maha-mantra: Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. Thegreat sixteenth-century saint Sri Caitanya, Himself worshiped as an incarnation of Lord Krishna, first turned this public congregational chanting (sankirtana) into a mass movement in Bengal and then spread it to other parts of India. Not meant to remain confined even to India, Caitanya style sankirtana has in recent decades appeared on Western shores, where members of the Hare Krishna movement, modern followers of Sri Caitanya, publicly chant in the streets of major cities. Why the profound effect on human consciousness? How is this process of Mantra-meditation performed? What are its effects? Why its universal appeal, which appears to transcend all historical and cultural bounds? To gain a deep understanding of these matters, we will need to explore the theological and mystical literature of the Vaishnava tradition. Sri Namamrita or the nectar of the Holy Name dwells deep into the theology and practice of the Holy Name and offers inspiration to sincere seekers to take up the practice of mantra meditation and experience transcendental ecstacy!
