Relating many previously unpublished stories, this fascinating biography presents a fresh view of numerous incidents recounted by Sri Sri Paramahansa Yogananda in Autobiography of a Yogi. As Sananda Lal Ghosh explains, Paramahansaji was naturally reticent about referring to his spiritual attainments when writing his autobiography. “Mejda” offers readers... Read More

Ecological Readings In The Veda
Dr. Marta Vannucci, a Biologist, who has spent many decades studying mangroves tropical forests and the ecology of this earth has turned her attention to ecology of matter, energy and life as reflected and articulated in the Vedic corpus.

This distinguishes the present work and the author's quest, from many others who have either tried to justify ancient knowledge on the basis of... Read More

A Vedic Reader for Students: Containing thirty hymns of the Rigveda in the original Samhita and Pada texts, with transliteration, translation, explanatory notes, introduction, vocabulary
This Reader is meant to be a companion volume to my Vedic Grammar for Students. It contains thirty hymns comprising just under 300 stanzas.

All the books of the Rigveda have been drawn upon except the ninth. The reason for... Read More

The Yantras of Deities and their Numerological Foundations,an iconographic consideration
Having been born and raised in the United States, my introduction to things Eastern had come well into my mature years.

My first introduction, albeit brief, was during my graduate studies where the institution had a notable Southeast Asian program at the time. I have, over the years, considered this Eurocentrism to be a drawback, if... Read More
