Book Description
How did the universe begin? What is the purpose of human existence? How does the mind work? What happens to us when we die? These are just some of the questions addressed in The Wisdom of Tantra. Based on the teachings of Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, a guru and philosopher who is considered one of the greatest thinkers of the twentieth century, The Wisdom of Tantra begins with the origins of Tantra and yoga and proceeds to unravel the mysteries of cosmology, the nature of the mind, the eight limbs of yoga, chakras, dharma, and reincarnation, as well as explaining how spirituality can provide solutions to the most pressing social, economic, and political challenges of our times. The Wisdom of Tantra is a clear and concise summary of the key concepts of Tantra yoga. Many of my students have used this book as their introduction to the philosophical foundations of their yoga practice. Bruce Viveka McEwen, PhD.

Book Description
This book outlines the theory of Neo-Humanism as propounded by the great 20th century think P.R. Sarkar. Neo-humanism is described as humanism expanded to include the entire creation: all varieties of human cultural expressions, and the animal and plant world, even until the inanimate world. This 'new-humanism', rather than being an aetheistic concept, recognizes the value of a human beings internal world, and thus bases the inspiration of neo-humanism upon a universal spirituality which is an essential part of the human psyche, although at times unconscious. This inner connection provides the mental epansion, empathy and perception so that will allow human society to live 'neo-humanism' not only intheory mut as a real expereicen intergrated into the individual and collective self. The author also clearly and concisely describes the modes by which vested economic and media interests manipulate and distort human thinking, and how this can be combatted through rationality and proper education. This he links in a unique way spirituality, rationality and human emotion. This book offers a unique perspective for anyone interested in sociology, multi-culturalism, anti-speciesism, globalization, anthropology, alternative economics, etc.
