Book Description
Commentary by Swami Tejomayananda. Nirvana Shatkam, also known as atma shatkam, composed by Sri Adi Shankaracharya is a magnificently lucid piece of poetry, a razor-sharp distinction between reality and false identification and the product born from the very highest states of meditation.

The Sacred Sounds of Sri Vidya
Author: Vinita Rashinkar
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN:
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
“Sri Vidya begins where the current understanding of quantum physics ends,” say modern-day scholars about this little-known, highly esoteric spiritual tradition that has been kept under wraps by its practitioners. Sri Vidya practice is a three-fold one, encompassing mantra (sacred sound), yantra (sacred geometry) and tantra (a technique or framework for worship). Learning about the mantras used in the Sri Vidya tradition is fascinating as much as it is frustrating because information about its various aspects is exceptionally hard to find. This book endeavours to explore the main mantras used in the Sri Vidya tradition and understand them as the unfolding of Shakti, the inherent power which lies at the core of our being and holds the key to our worldly and spiritual success. Our minds and beliefs can be our strongest allies or our worst enemies. The book delves into concepts such as the importance of building the right narrative about life and the need for ritual in modern-day lifestyle. Samskara, vritti and vasana are described along with a detailed study of tantra and Sri Vidya before a discussion on mantras in general and then focusing on the mantras used in the Sri Vidya tradition. The subjects covered seek to establish the context of mantra sadhana in Sri Vidya is to be approached, combining elements of knowledge, devotion and ritual. We live in a time of deep insecurity, stuck in the midst of a feeling of scarcity, stress and self-limiting beliefs. This book offers everyone an opportunity to learn and experience the benefits of mantra sadhana of Sri Vidya and enjoy a life of abundance in all aspects of life – good health, meaningful relationships, success at work, peace and bliss in the spiritual path. The author has kept in mind the sensibilities of the modern spiritual seeker and their needs and interests, presenting the information in a non-dogmatic and practical manner. This is the fourth book by the author in the Spirituality series. The first book was about the Sri Chakra Yantra, the second was about Chakras and the third was Tantra, Mantra and Yantra of Sri Vidya.

Adi Shankaracharya: Hinduisms Greatest Thinker
Author: Pavan K. Varma
Publisher: Westland
ISBN: 9395073764
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
About the Book A COMPREHENSIVELY RESEARCHED BOOK ON THE LIFE AND PHILOSOPHY OF ADI SHANKARACHARYA What is Brahman? What is its relationship to Atman? What is an individual’s place in the cosmos? Is a personalised god and ritualistic worship the only path to attain moksha? Does caste matter when a human is engaging with the metaphysical world? The answers to these perennial questions sparkle with clarity in this seminal account of a man and a saint, who revived Hinduism and gave to Upanishadic insights a rigorously structured and sublimely appealing philosophy. Jagad Guru Adi Shankaracharya (788–820 CE) was born in Kerala and died in Kedarnath, traversing the length of India in his search for the ultimate truth. In a short life of thirty-two years, Shankaracharya not only revived Hinduism, but also created the organisational structure for its perpetuation through the mathas he established in Sringeri, Dwaraka, Puri and Joshimatha. Adi Shankaracharaya: Hinduism’s Greatest Thinker is a meticulously researched and comprehensive account of his life and philosophy. Highly readable, and including a select anthology of Shankaracharya’s seminal writing, the book also examines the startling endorsement that contemporary science is giving to his ideas today. A must-read for people across the ideological spectrum, this book reminds readers about the remarkable philosophical underpinning of Hinduism, making it one of the most vibrant religions in the world.

Padavali Prayers
Author: Vivekananda Kendra
Publisher: Vivekananda Kendra
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
For the various camps that are conducted by Vivekananda Kendra, participants come from different parts of the country. During the camps there are morning and evening prayers and also songs before and at the end of various sessions. All these prayers are given in “Padavali” - the booklet of songs and prayers brought out by Vivekananda Kendra. Participants ask for the meanings of these prayers. Sometimes it is possible to explain the meanings of the prayers during the shibirs but some time it is not possible. Therefore it was felt that a booklet which gives word to word meaning as well as short explanation should be brought out. Thus this book “Padavali Prayers with meanings” is being brought out. Our prayers from Padavali which are mainly taken from the Vedic literature are not just for asking something from Ishwara but are for moulding oneself on the vision of Oneness. The Sadhak sings these prayers for developing the right mind and attitude so as to be able to see everything as Ishwara and contribute in Ishwara’s work. Thus if the chanting of prayers is accompanied with deep contemplation on the meaning then it could be very elevating. We hope this small booklet would be useful not only for the participants coming for the various camps of Vivekananda Kendra but also for other aspirants too.

A measure of the Self
Author: Hari Prasad Bangalore
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1645465497
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 505
Book Description
The whole Creation is a spiritual system. How to understand this. “Life has to be lived forward but understood backward”. In this Creation, everything leads to something. That something leads to something further. That something significant leads us to something Ultimate. But the sure way to lose sight of spirituality in the Creation is to take everything for granted. That’s how we lost sight of valuable clues already. The rarest miracle is to be born as an awakened human being. Science is required for the welfare of the world and spirituality is required for the wellbeing of mankind. Human beings need to be guided very responsibly. We have to inquire into the spiritual dimension of Creation by serious contemplation, even while science is on a romantic trip with cognizable phenomena. Simple awareness takes us to a higher pedestal of awakening - a hyper-awareness. This is awakening. Ordinarily, we lead to three kinds of lives. One-the life we want to lead; two - the life we are leading; three - the life we should be leading. Through Sadhana, we can narrow the gap and make life and more purposeful. God limits Himself to the limits of our understanding.
