Death and after. 8. What should 'I' do? 9. Karma, Bhakti and Jnana Marga. 10. God. Appendix. "And what exactly, in scientific terms…, is the much-talked about spiritual phenomenon called enlightenment? Is it at all scientifically possible for a state devoid of ego to exist? And can a person do his normal duties in life in such a state? "This book answers these and kindred questions convincingly: in a way that should appeal to a scientist, a spiritualist and a lay person alike. Uncommonly combining in him the rationality of a medical scientist and the profundity of his religio-philosophical studies, the author demonstrates how the spiritual phenomena of enlightenment and liberation do have an eminently satisfactory scientific explanation-an explanation which he also reconciles with conventional spiritual teachings. Finally, flitting adroitly from Advaita to Tao, Zen to Sufism, Buddhism to Christianity, Dr. Trasi shows how the teachings of different faiths aren't different in essence, but just constitute intricate parts of the one and the same grand, big picture. "With deep insight, forceful logic and supporting references, Dr. Trasi's book not only dispels many of the myths,mis-conceptions and distortions woven around enlightenment, the liberated state, the Soul and death, but explores the rationale behind wide-ranging traditional beliefs as well. Also set out is a scientific. 320 pp.

"Narayana Guru (1854-1928), a much-revered philosopher-saint of South India, revisualised the essential Upanisadic thought with a freshness of perspective. Further, he applied basic aspects of his Upanisadic philosophy successfully to bring about radical social transformations. This book deals with his philosophy as discussed in his major work, Atmopadesa Satakam (One hundred verses of self instruction) but incorporates views and ideas from his other works as well. "The work focuses on Narayana Guru's philosophic thought dealing with the meaning of Vedanta, the way to seek reality, the role of the individual in life, and karma, maya, the atma's self-manifestation and sat-cit-ananda as the definition of the atma or Brahman and as the final goal. The various concepts are explained in relation to one another and from the viewpoint of achieving the final goal in life to present a unified thought construct that forms the core of Narayana Guru's philosophy. It also takes up the application of his Upanisadic philosophy in different disciplines like 155 pp.

Soft cover. Condición: As New. 5th or later Edition. Contents: Foreword. 1. Introduction. 2. The original text. 3. The text with commentary, Tattvaprakasika. 4. Aditya Pancavimsatyuttarasata Namavalih (reverence to the Sun God with 125 names). Index. "The ancient Indian tradition and literature accords a supreme place to the Sun… in the order of divinities, revering and worshipping it as the life-force of the Universe and the highest reality. The commentary by Swami Tattvavidananda Saraswati in this volume comes as an attempt to unravel the power and mystique of the Sun as explained in the Aditya Hrdayam, a small canto chapter offering obeisance to the Sun God in the immortal epic, Srimadramayanam of Adikavi Valmiki. "The book presents the original Sanskrit mantras of the 'Aditya Hrdayam' along with their Roman transliteration and lucid English translation. The verses are accompanied by detailed annotations that describe every term, concept and idea with great clarity. The commentary, easy to follow and fluent in flow, explores the secret of the eternal stotra, Aditya Hrdayam conveyed by Sage Agastya to Lord Rama using which the latter emerged victorious over Ravana. Aditya Hrdayam is hailed as one of the greatest tributes to the Sun by our ancient sages that provides insights into the importance of the Sun as the creator and sustainer of the Universe, the ultimate source of all wealth. The commentary involves copious references to Taittiriya Samhita, Taittiriya Aranyaka, Taittiriya Upanisad, Chandogya Upanisad, Srimadbhagavadgita, etc., which make it all the more comprehensive and 77 pp.

Paperback. Condición: As New. Contents: Preface. 1. Peace invocation. 2. Prasna I. 3. Prasna II. 4. Prasna III. 5. Prasna IV. 6. Prasna V. 7. Prasna VI. Glossary. Index. "In Upanisads is articulated not only the quintessence of spiritual wisdom, but also the remarkable philosophical genius of the classical Hindu mind. Owing, how…ever, to their complexity, metaphor, and even obscurity, Upanisadic writings have been endlessly debated, discussed and written upon, more specially since Sankara's time. Swami Narayana Prasad's commentary is yet another valuable addition to the existing literature attempting, as it does, to rationally unlock the metaphysical subtleties of Prasna Upanisad-with the master-key handed down to him in the disciplic succession of Sri Narayana Guru. "Prasna Upanisad offers an enlightened exposition of brahmavidya: knowledge of the absolute/supreme reality. In an aptly thought-out dialectical situation, it offers a threadbare discussion of six questions which, centreing around procreation/origin of beings, prana: the most vital life-sustaining principle, functional states of the self (purusa), significance of meditating on AUM-lead to the finality of Vedantic wisdom: the sublimity of non-dual reality: the Param Purusa of sixteen kalas. "With the English version of the Upanisad, its original Sanskrit text and Roman transliteration, Swami Prasad's interpretation highlights the true import of this metaphysical piece- spelling out its contexts in the light of what the author calls "the metalogic of yogic-buddhi" and all else that is allegorical. 198 pp.

The two paths. 6. In the Katha Upanisad. 7. In the Bhagavad Gita. 8. In the Brahma Sutras. 9. Conclusion. Bibliography. Glossary.…Index. "The atman (soul), in the eastern belief system, is eternal, immortal. The phenomenon of (physical) death is, thus, nothing but its disembodiment and its 'reincarnation' in a new body. And what determine as atman's choice of a new body is the law of karma-the merits and demerits of one's actions in the present life. "The notions of karma and reincarnation constitute the fundamental tenets of Indian thinking; though these, like many other doctrinal beliefs, are hard to prove/disprove in purely rationalistic or even empirical terms. Swami Muni Narayana Prasad looks afresh at these age-old doctrinal beliefs-from the viewpoint of an Advaitin (non-dualist), developing stimulating insights from his studies of the Upanisads, the Bhagavad Gita the Brahma Sutras and, these besides, the works of his mentor: Naryana Guru. Contextually, among other questions,his book also dwells on ultimate reality, birth and death, and the two paths: Devayana (the path of Gods) and Pitryana (the path of manes), which either the souls take to after death." 106 pp.

The forts/capital (Durgas/Pura). 6. The treasury (Kosha). 7. The army ( Danda/Bala). 8. The allies and the inter-state relations (Mitra tatha Niti). Glossa…ry. Index. "Ancient Indians were a highly organized polity, with a well-established worldview of the Rajya (the state). And also of its seven distinct organs : svamin (the king), amatyas (the ministers), janapada/rastra (the territory and the people), durgas/pura (the forts/ capital), kosha (the treasury), danda/bala (the army), and mitra tatha niti (the allies and inter-state relations). In their togetherness, these components of the state led political ideologues to advance the theory of Saptanga : the 'seven limbs'-each of which admitted varying emphases with ancient scholars, according to the changing political situations or their own predilections. "Besides traditional/semi-historical writings, the Saptanga theory of state finds recurring allusions in Kautilya's Arthasastra which, written sometime about the 4 century BC, remains the oldest surviving treatise of its kind on statecraft. Surprisingly, the Arthasastra itself, claims its author, is a compendium of the writings of as many as eighteen ancient teachers, like Manu, Brhaspati, Usana, Bharadvaja, Visalaksha, Prachetas, and Pisuna. "With bit-by-bit analysis of an astonishing mass of original, indigenous sources: Vedic, puranic, epical, Buddhist, Jaina, and even non-Indian, Professor G.P. Singh. 152 pp.

Such laws as is to be presumed need periodical revision or modification or even total nullifying and replacement. Narayana Guru took up the challenge to write a new Smrti text when he felt that the two thousand years old Manusmrti has become outdated for modern times. Narayana Smrti is an alternative new text fit for current times while being fully in conformity with the traditional wisdom espoused in Indian literature. 86 pp.

Paperback. Condición: As New. Reprint. The Mundaka however holds a special place in the writings of the genre not because of its emphasis on sraddha (belief) often in one's guru but primarily for its vehement denunciation of the Vedic ritualism. Which perhaps explains why sannyasins (the renunciate monks) treat this Upanisad as…a spiritual authority for the way of life they have chosen to live. Here is a brilliant critical interpretation in contemporary idiom of the Mundaka Upanisad showing how a seeker can cogitate/meditate upon the supreme reality or in other words how one can have the transcendental experience of cosmic consciousness. The book looks afresh at some of the perpetually puzzling questions that Mundaka addresses questions like for instance what is the nature of Brahman the one causal reality. How can a seeker know it. Who can be eligible for its knowledge. Offering an in depth analytical commentary on this time honoured text Swami Muni Narayana Prasad presents at once appropriate metaphors analogies and these besides backgrounds to the varying contexts that not only elucidate various philosophical terms and concepts in all their underlying shades of meanings but also provides rich insights into this Upanisad. Complete with the original Sanskrit text and its Roman transliteration this work is a must for all keen on discovering the essential meaning of the Upanisadic thought and meditating upon wisdom's ineffable core. 142 pp.

Paperback. Condición: As New. Reprint. Man has always been perplexed with the now and hereafter of his worldly existence. The enigma called life with all its attendant uncertainties and everyday strifes and irritants continues to defy experimental/realistic investigation despite all the exciting advances in science. We still age… we still die. We are as mortal as ever. Life remains a mystery. And death remains in Shakespearean phraseology the undiscovered country. A masterpiece among the writings of its genre Katha Upanisad attempts to unravel the mystery of death though in its totality it is an insightful exposition of Brahmavidya knowledge of the absolute/supreme reality. In a well devised dialectical situation the Upanisad shows how a young seeker calling upon Yama none other than the God of death himself insists on knowing the secret of all secrets with specific questions like what is death. Why people fear death when they know it to be inevitable. What happens at death. And what if anything continues to exist after death and how the questions which the deity answers amidst widely ranged wisdom teachings. Swami Muni Narayana Prasad here offers a lucid English version of this time honoured Upanisad together with exhaustive commentary the original Sanskrit text and its Roman transliteration. Written at a time when the profoundly symbolic Vedic Yajnas/rituals had degenerated into crass priestcraft the Katha Upanisad not only has its historical importance but counts among the landmark writings that have shaped India's heritage of spirituality and philosophic thought. 151 pp.

Hardbound. Condición: As New. "Of the monumental literature authored by Sri Sankara, the Sri Daksinamurti Stotram, comprising stotras in praise of the glory of Isvara, holds a significant place. Singing the importance of nirguna nirakara paramesvara, the text elaborates on Lord Sri Daksinamurti as embodiment of atma-dharma and k…nowledge and describes the essential nature of Brahman. "Here, Swami Tattvavidananda offers his critical, verse-to-verse, detailed commentary on the Daksinamurti Stotram along with its transliteration in Roman script and its English translation. He explains the ultimate truth as presented in that text through a variety of experiences of the false individual caught in the web of samsara. Through original and contemporary yet common examples, he brings out the purport of the Stotram and enumerates various stages of sadhana to understand the ultimate reality and develop an attitude of witness to the inner world of feelings. Themes like creation and nature of universe, process of gaining knowledge, maya, plurality of the world and the supreme reality, the jiva are explained as given in the text. The fluent and easy-to-understand commentary incorporates ancient and modern scientific theories to explain their inadequacies and contentions of various schools of philosophy on different aspects to enable a broader understanding of the text. "The work will interest scholars of ancient Indian philosophy and literature and inspire and motivate general readers keen on acquiring insights into religious and philosophical questions."

Soft cover. Condición: New. Contents An opinion. Preface. Key to transliteration. 1. Introduction. 2. The Sutras. 3. Commentary. 4. The self and recursion. 5. Languages of the brain. 6. The fourth way. 7. Afterword. Index. The Prajna Sutra presents a bridge between the cosmologies of Vedic knowledge and modern science. The ideas… are presented as 18 sutras on the nature of reality language art mind transformation and freedom on which explanatory commentaries are provided. The sutras tie together common symbols of the Vedic tradition and their deeper intuitions using contemporary vocabulary. The synthesis presented in the Sutras is wide ranging and it not only deals with abstract ideas but also with questions of meaning aesthetics love war and suffering. Although some consider only linguistic problems to be worthy of study linguistic expressions ultimately are about things and they cannot properly address the mystery of consciousness. The Sutras consider issues that go to the core of philosophy namely the nature of reality and the relationship of the experiencing subject to it. They speak of the complementary domains of rationality and paradox that underlie ordinary experience. They explain how the mystery of consciousness relates not only to the individual's cognitive capacity to know but also his ability to transform both himself and his environment. 82 pp.

Conclusion. Bibliography. Author index. Subject index. The question of the relationship between the ultimate reality of the universe and its proximate reality as experienced by us is apt to boggle the mind given the vastness of the dimensions involved. The distinction between it and us is like the difference between an avalanche and a snowflake. Nevertheless the Hindu school of philosophy known as Advaita Vedanta tries to render it comprehensible at the level of the individual by pressing everyday analogies into service. One such analogy is suggested by our experience in life when we momentarily mistake a piece of seashell for a piece of silver. Advaita Vedanta then proceeds to employ this pivotal analogy to explore the various dimensions of the relationship of the individual to the world to the ultimate reality and of the ultimate reality to the world. This book uses this metaphor as a window which opens out into the world of Advaita Vedanta. 110 pp.
