Yoga is a Science of Consciousness that teaches us how to realize our immortal Self (Atman) beyond body and mind, one with the entire universe. This is explained in the Yoga of Knowledge (Jnana Yoga) and Non-dual Vedanta as clearly presented in the teachings of the great guru Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi.
Yoga Beyond Body & Mind sets forth the path of Self-inquiry, reflecting on Ramana’s transformative insights, guiding our awareness in a systematic manner to reveal the Self within the spiritual heart. The book includes translations and interpretations of Raman’s key teachings.
ASTROLOGY OF THE SEERS first published in 1990, is regarded as one of the classic modern books on Vedic astrology, covering all the main aspects of its theory, background and practice. It is particularly well known for its philosophical approach and poetic style. The book discusses the relationship of Vedic and Western astrology, including Planets and deities and the cycles of the Yugas. It has a special section on medical astrology and on mantras.
YOGA OF HERBS contains many of the most commonly used western herbs with a profound Ayurvedic perspective, explaining their energetics according to a deeper yogic vision. Important Chinese and special Ayurvedic herbs are also introduced from the same point of view. Beautiful diagrams and charts, as well as detailed glossaries, appendices and index are included. The book helps you understand to use hundreds of herbs according to the ancient wisdom of Ayurvedic medicine and its yogic insight.
AYURVEDA AND THE MIND is the first book published in the West that explores specifically the psychological aspect of Ayurvedic medicine and the related system of Yoga philosophy. The book explores how to heal our minds on all levels from the subconscious to the superconscious, along with the role of diet, impressions, mantra, meditation, yoga and many other methods to create wholeness. It puts us in charge of our own psychological well-being with tools that help us shape the full potential of our lives. After more than ten years in print, it remains the main book on this important topic.
Ayurvedic Medicine represents the healing branch of yogic science, while Vedic astrology provides its understanding of time and karma. Ayurvedic astrology teaches the interface of these two extraordinary systems in the Vedic astrology of healing. Ayurvedic Astrology has become one of the most dynamic new branches of Vedic astrology in the West.
