DESCRIPTION:

This is a compilation of some of the essays which Ravi Ravindra, a scientist-philosopher, has written over more than a quarter of a century. These essays have been published in a variety of journals and magazines, some of which are not not easily accessible. Brief excerpts from some of his books, Whispers from the Other Shore, Science and Spirit, The Yoga of he Christ, and Krishnamurti: Two Birds on one Tree, are also included in the collection.

Each of the selections here is influenced by yoga and the teaching of Krishna; all of them speak of and are related to the wisdom of the spiritual traditions of India. They range from an exploration of Rta in the Rig Veda and its relation to yagna and dharma in the subsequent tradition to a reflection upon the influence of the Indian tradition
on contemporary spiritual masters such as J.Krishnamurti and C.I.Gurdieff. Some of the essays deal exclusively with the great texts of India, such as the Yoga Sutra and Bhagavad Gita, while some deal with the parallels which can be found with texts from other traditions, such as The Enneads of Plotinus and The Godspel according to Saint John.

Other essays discuss the interaction of modern science and the spiritual traditions of Indian and their impact on the life of humanity. Ravindra is at home in the East and in the West; he understands hymns in Vedic Sanskrit and nuances of relativistic cosmology, ad he brings insights from both sources. He shares his passionate inquiry about the meaning and purpose of human life and of the cosmos that we might discover if we could hear more subtly and seem ore deeply. In this, he exhibits a remarkable impartiality which searches for and delights in truth and wisdom where ever they can be found, without an argument for or an exclusive interest in any sect, religion or tradition.

Back of The Book

When the rumblings of foreign assaults on India’s ancient Sanatana-dhrma began with Muhammad bin Qasim’s defeat of Raja Dahir of Sindh in 711 A.D., the land remained splintered politically. The times were not promising for bringing the national together in any manner. Just then, the gift of resurgence and spiritual unification came with the advent of Adi Sankara in 788 A.D. Renouncing material life, he mastered India’s ancient lore and cleared the cobwebs that obscured the Eternal Religion and interpreted cruicial scriptures like the Brahma-Sutra, the Upanisads and the Gita in the
light of Advaita Vedanta. Understanding the need of the aspirants to reach out to the Unknown through the known, Adi Sankara inaugurated the vast area of stotra literature, which remains the common man’s gateway tot eh Divine every today.

About The Book

Structured as a concise introduction to the varied writings of the greatest Advaitic philosopher the world has known, Adi Sankara: Finite to the Infinite recounts his life and travels. The individual writings are discussed to show how he was the father of the commentatorial tradition for which India is famous. What emerges in the end is an inspiring figure of an intrepid scholar, an illustrious teacher, a visionary administrator and a superb poet. Certainly, we have in Adi Sankara’s personality the much-needed motivation for the youth of today who are building the new India.

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:

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.

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

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

Gopi Krishna was born into a family of Kathak dancers. His maternal grandfather Pandit Sukhdev Maharaj was a teacher of Kathak and his aunt Sitara Devi was a Kathak dancer who has performed around the world. When he was 11 years old, Gopi Krishna began training under his grandfather. He also learned from Shambhu Maharaj. In addition to Kathak, Gopi Krishna learned Bharatanatyam from Mahalingam Pillai and Govind Raj Pillai.[1] Despite suffering from chronic asthma he continued to expand his dance repertoire,[2] receiving the title of "Nataraj" (King of Dancers) at the All Bengal Music Conference at the age of 15.[1] In 1952, 17 year old Gopi Krishna became one of the youngest choreographers in Hindi film history when he was hired to choreograph dances for Madhubala in Saqi.[2] In 1955, he appeared in his first film Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baaje. In the film he played Girdhar, a talented young dancer whose love for his partner jeopardizes his dancing career. The film was
successful and helped to revitalize public interest in classical dance.[1] He also choreographed many films like Grahasti (1963), Dastaan, Mehbooba, Umrao Jaan, Naache Mayuri (1986) and The Perfect Murder.[3] During the 1960s and 70s, he toured India's border posts, entertaining soldiers with Sunil Dutt's Ajanta Arts Cultural
Troupe.[2] Gopi Krishna later established the Nateshwar Bhavan dance academy and the Nateshwar Nritya Kala Mandir.[2] In 1975 the Indian government awarded him India's fourth highest civilian award, the Padma Shri.

DESCRIPTION:

Everyone associated with Sri Krishna believes that their relationship with the deity is unique, which explains why every gopika felt that the Lord was dancing with her at the Maharaas. That is Sri Krishna’s magic and also his power that he becomes the centre of their existence. He has that effect on not just humans but on everything on the planet—both living and non-living.
This book is about Sri Krishna’s relationship with nature; the Peacock, the Kadamba tree, the Flute, the herbal plant Tulsi, the Lotus, his cow Kamadhenu, the Conch and the Peepala tree.
All of them believe that Keshava loves them the most. Can this be true?
Keshava, A Magnificent Obsession is the story of these special bindings, stories of passion, submission, devotion and of uncontainable desire.

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.

Editorial Reviews

Bhaja Govindam(Praise/Seek Govinda) also known as Moha Mudgara (Hammer to shatter illusion) is a popular 8th century Hindu devotional composition in Sanskrit attributed to Adi Shankaracharya. This work of Adi Shankara underscores the view that devotion (Bhakti) to God, Govinda, is a vastly important part of general spirituality, as emphasised by Bhakti Yoga and the Bhakti movement.This work is generally considered a summary of Adi Shankara's Advaita Vedanta philosophy. This timeless composition is a reminder that the author, Adi Shankaracharya, who is often regarded as a stalwart advocate of the Jnana Marga (Jnana Yoga) or the "Path of Knowledge" to attain Mukti, yielded to none in appreciating, indeed enjoining the Bhakti Marga (Bhakti Yoga) or the "Path of Faith/Devotion" to the same goal,and as C. Rajagopalachari put in his commentary, "When intelligence matures and lodges securely in the heart, it becomes wisdom. When that wisdom is integrated with life and issues out in action, it becomes devotion. Knowledge which has become mature is spoken of as devotion. If it does not get transformed into devotion, such knowledge is useless tinsel." In this prayer, Adi Shankaracharya emphasizes the importance of devotion for God as a means to spiritual development and to liberation from the cycle of birth and death. The prayer leaves one in no doubt that the renunciation of our egotistical differences and surrender to God makes for salvation. Many scholars hold that this composition encapsulates with both brevity and simplicity the substance of all Vedantic thought found in whatever other works that Adi Shankaracharya wrote: The refrain "Bhaja Govindam" which defines the composition and gives it its name invokes the almighty in the aspect of Vishnu; it is therefore very popular not only with Sri Adi Shankaracharya's immediate followers, the Smarthas, but also with Vaishnavas and others. --Wikipedia

About The Book

“Hindusim for All” has been the book of research for simple answers to complicated and curious questions. This book gives basic insight to the “Sanaatana Dharma” – which literally means ‘Eternal universal Truth’ and it is our endeavour to arouse further curiosity amongst our readers to delve into each subject separately and understand
the principles of Hinduism for the betterment of existence of Life in this universe.

Publisher,s Note

“Hinduim” is not a Religion, ‘It is a Way of Life,’ is a time tested statement by Philosophers, Spiritual Gurus and Leaders in all walks of Life.

Scores of books and literature have been written by many well read authors with in depth knowledge in The Vedas, Upanishads, Puraanas and Epics.

However, the need for a beginner’s text book has been felt time and again. As parents when we are not able to answer the curious questions of our little child, we look for a simple guide and find enormous information but not a specific answer.

DESCRIPTION:

A Guide to Navigating the Battle of Life “O Dhananjaya, do your work established in yoga and abandon attachment. Be impartial to success or failure, for yoga is equanimity.” —The Bhagavad Gita Myths offer truths that speak about the human condition and have withstood the test of time. The Mahabharata is one such magnificent saga and the Bhagavad Gita is the nectar of its distilled wisdom. The great Indian gurus and philosophers have looked at the battle of Kurukshetra as a euphemism for the struggle within – between a person’s asuric (demonic) and daivic (divine) inclinations. Eons later, the Gita is still relevant and popular. Is it because we are still fascinated about an ancient war and a philosophical discourse that happened in the middle of a battlefield a long time ago, or because we are concerned about understanding the constant tussle between good and bad in our lives and in our own consciousness? Ravi Ravindra’s fresh prose translation of the great epic stands out from the many other versions with its assertion that the Gita is, at its heart, an indispensable universal guide to help you cross the battlefield of life. Ravi Ravindra, PhD, is Professor Emeritus at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where he served for many years as a professor in comparative religion, philosophy and physics. He is the author of numerous books including Science and the Sacred, The Wisdom of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras and The Pilgrim Soul.
