| This book is a landmark in the wide panorama of Gita Literature, the universal nature of which is reflected in the use, in the form of prose as well as poetry of an increasing number of the world`s languages.
As the first book to utilize original verses in modern Sanskrit to convey the social massage of the Gita, it not only fills a significant linguistic gap but also focuses attention on social issues which call for urgent action by karmayogins.

Suresvara's Vartika on Udgitha Brahmana |
$8.33 $5.83 |
|
| The Udgitha Brahmana forms a natural sequel to the Asva and Asvamedha Brahmana and marks a distict effort of the seer of the Brhadaranyaka Upanisad towards explaining the nature of Reality which underlies, or permeates through, all ritual activity. The Udgitha Upasana, looking apparently as some activity, leads the upasaka 'worshipper' to unity or oneness with the Udgitha which is nothing else then the Brahman.

Surprising as it may seem, Indian literature has not till now been presented from this obvious, natural and necessary point of view in any modern language, except in a limited and primarily bibliographical manner by Krishnamachariar in his history of Classical Sanskrit Literature (1937).

Raja-Cekhara's Karpura-Manjari: A Drama by the Indian Poet Rajacekhara (About 900 A.D.) |
$35.49 $24.84 |
|
| Raja-Cekhara has been highly esteemed for his proficiency in the Prakrit. This volume presents the first critical edition of the only Prakrit Drama extant, for here none of the characters speak Sanskrit. The interest of the play is largely philological, likely to throw light on the linguistic History of India, though, not without its importance for the History of the Indian Drama. It abounds in material which may well engage the attention of the student of Antiquities and Folk-lore.

The abstract becomes the obvious and there arises a deeper understanding of the mystery of life. There is more reverence, worship becomes a way of life. The symbolism of Hinduism, although exoteric and esoteric, is the key to understanding. In this short introductory work on the sacred symbols of HInduism, an attempt has been made to present their... |
