Book Description
The Sermon on the Mount represents the essence of both Christ's teachings and the teachings of Vedanta. Christ said, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." "The kingdom of God is within." "Be ye perfect..." Theologians are apt to explain away these teachings, but we believe Christ meant what he said. Read in this book how Vedanta goes to the heart of Christ's teachings.

Book Description
This pioneering work harmonizes Hindu Vedanta philosophy with the Christian vision of the Word made flesh through the Spirit of God's love. An introduction to the Vedic scriptures which shows that God has also lavished his riches on non-Christian people and how we must relate ourselves to these other sources of truth. “Without Christianity I don't think the oriental religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, can answer the needs of the modern world. But without the enrichment of the mystical tradition of Asia I doubt whether the Western Churches can really discover the fullness of Christ which we are seeking.” (Bede Griffiths)

Book Description
The Lord Almighty in the form of Sage Vedavyasa composed the epic Bhagavata Maha Purana to expand on the spiritual concepts contained in the Vedas using episodes and anecdotes from the Lord’s various incarnations and the experiences of His devotees. It is a guidebook to society to illustrate human and ethical values. The Bhagavata Maha Purana is structured as a conversation between King Pariksit and sage Shuka and is spread over 12 cantos with 18000 verses. The eleventh canto has 1373 verses spread among 31 chapters. While the tenth canto has the authentic account of the incarnation and activities of Lord Sri Krishna, the eleventh canto has core messages from the Lord to humankind. The Bhagavad Gita [BG], the song celestial, which has the sermon from Lord Krishna to prince Arjuna, which is the most revered text among Hindu scriptures, is part of the great epic Mahabharata. Uddhava Gita, the divine conversation between Uddhava, an aide, and an ardent devotee of Lord Krishna, and Lord Krishna Himself is spread over 23 chapters (chapters 7 to 29), in 1033 verses (about 75% of 11th Canto). This has many parallels with the Gita and reads like a commentary on the Gita. In Gita, the Lord responds to many philosophical questions from Arjuna and many of those critical questions are explained in more detail in Uddhava Gita with examples and anecdotes. Excellent interpretation of the critical aspects of this epic can be found in the works of the 12th century ascetic Sri Madhwacharya. Other savants in his lineage such as Sri Vadiraja Teertha, Sri Raghavendra Teertha, Sri Vijayadhwaja Teertha, Sri Satyabhinava Teertha, Sri Satyadharma Teertha have contributed tremendously to summarize and expand on the key concepts. This book attempts to provide a simple translation in English of the 111h canto along with summary and interpretations based on the lectures by His Holiness Sri Vidyasagara Madhava Teertha.

Book Description
The Vedanta was an inseparable part of Swami Vivekananda’s personality. He lived and breathed this philosophy while preaching it to India and the west. While Vivekananda’s landmark address at the Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893 established him as modern India’s great spiritual leader, his popularity and appeal is attributed to his ability to integrate his human side with his profound spiritual side. In this beautifully written biography, Chaturvedi Badrinath liberates Vivekananda from the confines of the worship room and offers an unforgettable insight into the life of a man who was the very embodiment of the Vedanta that he preached.
