The Acarya

Quantity:

This latest addition to Sankara literature is totally different in concept. It`s based solidly in tradition, and it is at the same time just the kind of presentation that makes the postmodern reader sit up and take notice. It is philosophical, yet never forbiddingly so. It reads more like a story. The prose is simple, smooth, and meditative.

Padmapada, Sankara`s senior disciple, narrates the story in very human terms. His intent is not to glorify his master`s life and work--for that is hardly necessary--but to present him as a friend of humankind, someone who is needed generation after generation, millennium after millennium.

Humans have not changed in terms of their strengths or their weaknesses since the race first evolved on the planet, nor are they likely to morph into saints any time soon. The prophets help us cope with the trials and tribulations of our daily lives and remind us of our divine roots if we care to listen.

This book answers some of your serious questions about life if you have them read. If you don`t, it will help you formulate them. Coming up with the right questions, after all, is the first step toward finding the right solutions.

TESTIMONIALS

Your website is the best I have seen and reflects well the intentions behind your seva. (to bring out the knowledge of ancient realized scriptures - the Ved) Tamil Nadu is a Divine place. I realize the difficult challenges you must be facing there but progress forward with the goal to serve will make things turn out just right. Renounce the fruit of labor totally if possible - its tough on the ego but as you, unbounded bliss awaits immediately. Very difficult to find true seva working souls, everybody wants something. I feel your genuie will to serve and I salute you in greeting - namaste. May God provide for you all there and shower His/Her eternal joy and abundance to support you and guide you. Thank you for your heart warming email. I appreciate the service....
