Shreemad Bhagavad Gita
Author: Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3963430400
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 990
Book Description
The Shreemad Bhagavad Gita is one of the most ancient scriptures in the world. It contains the direct word of God, spoken for all of mankind, irrespective of religion or tradition. Its philosophy and teachings are central to human life. It teaches us to live our daily lives in Divinity, as a service unto God and His creation. It achieves this by gifting us true knowledge, faith, devotion, surrender, detachment, and a release of expectations and ownership over one’s own actions. It comes as a stark contrast to the lives with which we have grown accustomed to leading. Today’s world is filled with constant desire for material wealth, sense pleasures, individualism and egoism. The Gita acts as a lighthouse on the shores of Vaikunta, guiding lost sailors at the sea of illusion to safety. But like any teaching, time and unqualified minds can distort it and misunderstand what is contained within. It is for that purpose that the Lord continuously takes birth on earth in the form of the Guru to revive the true essence of the Gita, to show the simplicity of the message of Bhagavan. One such Master is Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda, and in this book, which is his personal commentary, we hold a treasure chest of spiritual insight.

Mukunda-mālā-stotram
Author: Vishwananda Paramahamsa
Publisher: Bhakti Marga Publications
ISBN: 3963430850
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
The Mukunda-mālā-stotram is one of Vaiṣṇavism's most beloved devotional prayers, composed by King Kulaśekhara. As the seventh of the twelve Alvars, the mystic bhakti saints of South India, he played a pivotal role in the revival of bhakti and served as an inspiration for Sri Rāmānujācārya's Sri Sampradaya. This prayer is a celebration of śaraṇāgati, perfect surrender to the Lord, and reminds us to strive for unceasing remembrance of the Lord at all times and places. King Kulaśekhara speaks of the misery of the soul trapped in this world, with its many trials and tribulations, all the while reminding us all that the Supreme Lord, Śrīman Nārāyaṇa, is the only means of liberation from this otherwise endless predicament. It asks Mukunda, the Lord as the granter of liberation, to give the self-proclaimed unworthy author freedom from the cycle of birth and death. Accompanied by the enlightening commentaries of Paramahamsa Vishwananda, this is unquestionably a must-read for all aspiring Vaiṣṇavas. Paramahamsa Vishwananda is a God-realised spiritual Master whose commentaries on scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita, the Srimad Bhagavatam and many more have touched the hearts of thousands, inspiring them to a life of devotion and service to God and humanity.

Shreemad Bhagavad Gita - Verses and Translations
Author: Bhakti Marga
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3940381594
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
The Bhagavad Gita presents the timeless discourse about the awareness of the soul, held between Lord Krishna and the dejected warrior, Arjuna, just before the momentous Kurukshetra battle. Yet, as Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda explains, this war is not merely an external conflict from some ancient time, but is also the internal struggle of everyone longing to be closer to the Divine. Fortunately for us, the mere process of reading these verses is, in itself, a powerful act of personal transformation. This book is simply the Bhagavad Gita’s verses and translations without Paramahamsa Vishwananda’s commentary. This is done so that you can come to your own insights and listen to your heart as you read the sacred passages, making your own connections to the issues in your daily life. However, it does provide a complete overview of each chapter, inspired by insights given in Paramahamsa Vishwananda’s ‘Shreemad Bhagavad Gita – A Song of Love’, plus a simplified “family tree” to help those new to the Gita keep track of who is related to who, and at the end, a pronunciation guide to the Sanskrit for those who would like to chant the verses themselves. Paramahamsa Vishwananda is an enlightened spiritual Master who has the unique ability to awaken the soul's inner Light and Love, helping us all advance more quickly toward God-Realisation. His mission, known as Bhakti Marga, gives everyone access to Sri Swami Vishwananda’s timeless teachings of Divine Love and devotion to God, as well as provides opportunities to connect with others on the spiritual path. Besides local centres all over the world, his wisdom can be found in his books, CD’s, YouTube videos, social media, livestreams and online courses. Find out more by visiting bhaktimarga.org.

Christ & Krishna, Volume 1
Author: Bhakti Marga
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 396343032X
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
What is religion? In the pure sense of the word, religion means to reconnect to God. Yet, in today’s world it is so rarely seen as that. Religion is seen as divisive, dogmatic, sometimes even primitive. But what is the cause of this? We see that humans and their ideas are most often the cause of unnecessary conflict, unnecessary division and unnecessary tension. At the core of both Christianity and Hinduism lie God’s words, recorded in their respective scriptures. Yet so often we struggle to truly understand them. Volume 1 of the Christ & Krishna set highlights and dives deep into the thematic of who God is, the Creation of the Universe, who are we and how to come closer to (or to attain) God. By using the quotes from the Bhagavad Gita, the Bhagavatam and the Bible, this book gives you the opportunity to rediscover the timeless purity and essence of Christianity and consequently drawing a comparative analysis to the world’s oldest religion, Hinduism. The reader is invited to look deeper and ‘out of the box’ of doctrines. In the depths of everyone is the same Truth, the same Love, the same Essence.
