This biography of Shri Dhyanyogi, the kind of Indian saint who only exists in legend, provides tales of his exploits--at 100 years old he could walk faster than any of his followers--that are intertwined with his spiritual teachings.

At the centre of its philosophy is the principle of awakening the viatl energy (Kundalini) that lies latent in each of us in order to channel it into spirital growth. Envisualized as a coiled serpent, the energy must be aroused through meditation. It then rises up through the energy centre (chakras) to unite with pure consciousness at the crown of the head.

Discover your destiny with The Oracle of Rama, the great oracle of India, and one of the simplest to use. Like the I Ching, it consists of various verses that one can use to answer life's questions. The system is based upon Tulsidas; originally written as an oracle and still a great classic in India today. Inspired by the symbolism of Lord Rama, a divine incarnation, the system is designed as a quick and insightful divination tool. This deck—the first of it’s kind—is divided into seven sections and offers the reader hundreds of different verses that you can select in response to queries. It can be used for matters of the heart and spirit, as well as for the practical matters of life; from health to relationships and career issues. Dr. Frawley adds new commentary and modern adaptation of this great classic.
The chakras are a series of seven energy fields or centers of consciousness in the body which harbor latent divine energy known as Kundalini energy. The balance or imbalance of these vortices affects a person's health, as well as his or her emotional and spiritual well-being and evolution. The first section begins with a lesson on Kundalini energy and describes the chakras through colors, sounds, foods, and the elements. The second section presents holistic methods used for balancing: herbs, homeopathy, aromatherapy, astrology, polarity, bodywork, color therapy, sound therapy, proper diet and nutrition, yoga, affirmations, flower essences, and pranayama. The third section identifies symptoms of imbalance and techniques for self-healing.
