Built on a deep body of Vedic knowledge, the ancient system of social structure and spiritual duty known as Dharma has modern applications for people seeking their life’s purpose.

Wisdom of the Ancient Seers
Author: David Frawley
Publisher: Motilal Banarsidass
ISBN: 8120811607
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
"The Rig Veda is not only one of the oldest sacred scriptures of the world, but also one of the most misunderstood. Past scholarship has dismissed the hymns of the Rig Veda as being expressions of a primitive animistic mentality that only rarely rose to true spiritual and philosophical heights. David Frawley's book demonstrates that this judgmental view is ill-founded. His fine renderings of select Vedic hymns bear witness to the fact that their composers were sages and seers--powerful poets who knew the art of symbolic and metaphoric communication. The Vedic hymns give us a unique glimpse not into a primitive mentality but a mentality and culture that revolved around the highest spiritual values and visions. This is an important and riveting book, ushering in a new and sounder tradition of Vedic interpretation and scholarship." Georg Feuerstein

Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
How did the universe come into being? What is the nature of God? Of the human spirit? All who seek understanding will find this book an illuminating presentation of India's oldest and most profound religious and philosophical tradition. The Wisdom of the Vedas was first published in 1931 by Kailas Press under the title India's Outlook on Life. The Theosophical Publishing House published a second edition in 1973, and again in 1980 under the Quest imprint. The present 1992 edition was edited to reflect the modern use of inclusive language, and includes an introduction by Vedic scholar David Frawley. Mr. Frawley explains to the Western reader, "The Vedas are the original scripture or source teaching of the Hindu tradition, from which its many branches of Vedanta, Yoga, and Tantra have emerged through time, and to which they all look back with reverence." The Vedas are also "..the background relative to which the Buddhist religion evolved, and Buddhism also preserves many Vedic terms and practices." The study then, of the Vedas is important to understanding many different Eastern teachings. The author is from India, and has an unusual ability to frame the subtleties of Eastern thought for the Western world.

Searching for Vedic India
Author: Devamrita Swami
Publisher: The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust
ISBN: 0892133503
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Deep in lost history, did high civilizations and advanced knowledge thrive? The ancient Vedic literatures of India describe a worldwide civilization that flourished at a time when modern historians insist that humans like us existed simply as hunter-gatherers. This Vedic civilization, centered in India, employed technologies based on a scientific understanding of the physical elements and forces we know today, as well as more subtle conscious elements. Devamrita Swami, who has spent a lifetime in his own search for Vedic India, takes us on a journey of intellectual discovery through the history of the remarkable Vedic civilization and its knowledge, locked in the ancient literatures of India. His wit and wisdom combine to make our search for Vedic India not only illuminating but entertaining. He tells us not only the truths of Vedic India, but how they are again coming to be. Searching for Vedic India thus takes us not only into the past, but into the future.

Geometric Keys of Vedic Wisdom
Author: Lori Tompkins
Publisher: 360lotus Press
ISBN: 9780999614907
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
This book presents the author's sometimes stranger-than-fiction adventure of recovering long-buried geometric and zodiacal keys which unlock and reveal the true context and sense of the Rig Veda, the lore of Vishnu's avatars, St. John's Revelation and many other ancient mysteries or mythologies. The recovery of these keys dismantles thousands of years of accumulated distortions, superstitions and religious dogmas that have arisen from world-wide ignorance of the occulted meaning and context of the Rig Veda. It simultaneously facilitates passage into our higher (or supramental) ranges of consciousness, wherein all of life is known as a divine singularity or Oneness unfolding itself in the unified field of Time and Space. The revelations herein descended in 2016 as a continuation of Sri Aurobindo's yogic mission to uplift the "Secret of the Veda" along with the true origin and goal of Yoga and the Sanatana Dharma (Eternal Truth) of the Ancient Seers. This book is aimed towards readers interested in the evolution of consciousness, as well as sacred geometry, astrology, integral gnosis, symbology, the true origins of yoga, and the eternal truths (Sanatana Dharma) of India's Vedic Rishis or Seers in our day and Age of Aquarius. It may be of special interest to students of the Supramental and Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo the Mother and Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet (Thea), but one does not have to be familiar with these maha yogis to enjoy, understand, and benefit from the descent of Gnosis that is contained herein. Readers who enjoy Dan Brown books (especially "The Lost Symbol") should appreciate this entirely non-fictional account of the recovery of long-lost symbols and treasures of the Vedic Rishis, which help to solve or demystify many of our world's greatest ancient mysteries, including the true significance of the release of the Seven Rivers in the Rig Veda and the parallel account of the release of the Seven Vials or Bowls of St. John's Revelation. At the least it exposes math (or geometry) as the core of our ancient mythology. In addition to discussing the Kali Yugas and Indian mythology in depth, other world mythologies touched upon include: legends of Thor the Thunder God, Pegasus, the Divine Physician, Dionysus (Bacchus), the Fountain of Youth, water nymphs, Medusa, King Arthur, Excalibur, the Holy Grail, the Water Bearer of Aquarius, the Aztec Sun Stone, the Philosopher's Stone, the Rock of Ages and accounts of Biblical heroes walking on water or holding waters (seas) apart, or extracting water from a rock to quench the masses, as well as the idea of the Virgins of Heaven who await God's faithful martyrs. The single Vedic origin and context of all these mythologies becomes fully apparent in this book. It also becomes apparent that the name and mythology of Niagara Falls is firmly connected to Vedic lore.
