Here the collected papers explore the whole question of the relation between the mythopoetic and the moral in the context of the Mahabharata. Here we have a story of extreme complexity, characters that are unforgettable, and a cosmic context in which gods and men alike grapple with destiny. The obligations of kinship and friendship jostle with each other. The women characters, as in everyday life, seem to bear a very heavy load of the burden of life and to stand in a key position in almost every conflict. We are presented with predicaments at every turn. At times these predicaments seem to be aggravated by social structure. At other times they are cushioned by it. Philosophical tangles tied ...

The time is the fourth century AD, the golden age of Indian history. The locale: an ashram in the woods a little outside Varanasi. Every morning, Vatsyayana, the author of the Kamasutra, recounts stories from his childhood and youth to a young pupil who plans to write the great sage’s biography. Little is known of Vatsyayana’s life, and the young scholar puts the pieces together in his mind along with relevant slokas of erotic wisdom from the Kamasutra, which he has learnt by heart. The story that unfolds is fascinating. Vatsyayana’s mother Avantika and her sister Chandrika are famous courtesans in a brothel at Kausambi. From them and their various lovers Vatsyayana gains his first indelible impressions of sexual artifice. With characteristic insight, Kakar plumbs the psychological depths of a plethora of characters who are at various stages of discovering their sexual identities. What emerges is a powerful narrative of lust and sensuality imbued with an old-world charm and a surprising sense of irony.
It's popular in modern society to use psychological labels, spiritual bypasses and outside-in modalities to override experiences that are too uncomfortable for us to consciously feel. However, this way of functioning keeps us in an inwardly divided state, and therefore constantly searching outside ourselves for the intimate inner connection we need in order for us to deeply heal and spiritually awaken. Conscious Whole Being Integration, in contrast, is an approach that encompasses the natural integrative relationship that already exists between deep psychological healing, bodymind awareness, and spiritual awakening as a means of bringing you into alignment with your natural rhythms. This book will guide you in taking an inward dive into your own inner terrain; feeling, moment to moment, your unique relationship to the thought patterns and beliefs that have constructed who and what you perceive yourself to be. It's only through this direct experience that you can learn to consciously feel and engage all levels of your being-physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual-to bring about the natural and seamless integration of your soul's journey.

This book won New Age Book of the Year when it was written in 2001. At the time of its writing, NO scientist would agree with Jeffrey Armstrong that the ayurvedic body type could be "provably" predicted from a Vedic astrology chart. Then in 2015, after the genome project was well on its way - a group of scientists in India discovered that the ayurvedic body type was in fact predictable in the genome. One of the first things that Jeffrey can predict when looking at a person's chart is their Ayurvedic body type: what they look like and the qualities of that personality type. This not only validates Jeffrey's personal research but the validity of Vedic Sidereal astrology.Since the rights to thi...
