VALUES
AND HUMAN FREEDOM
This book awaiting
publication is a study of values and their relevance in human evolution
and progress. There prevails a misconception as a result of the materialistic
logic that values observed by man are just expressions of social contracts
that took shape by a slow process of social adjustments. This is an
unscientific view. When we study Nature and observe the subhuman levels
we find the prevalence of value systems that maintain a certain balance
in the world of life. A cultural evolution had certainly taken place
along with the organic evolution, about which the earlier theorists
could not devote ample time for studies. However, the observations of
many of the modern biologists reflect their growing awareness of this
fact. Hindu philosophy is based on a great scheme of evolution that
took place from the subtlest Reality through various stages in the expression
of the physical universe, in which consciousness and values are integral
parts. This book that integrates ancient insights and modern biological
knowledge is an illuminating study of the relevance of values in the
evolution and progress of mankind.
SRI LALITHAA -SAHASRANAAMA -
STOTHRAM
The Song of Human Evolution
Another book
awaiting publication. 'Sri Lalithaa-Sahasranaama-Stothram', the renowned
hymn on the Divine Mother, can be rightly called 'The Song of Human
Evolution'. The grace, splendor and beatitude of the Supreme, conceived
as the Divine Mother, throb in this hymn of exceptional spiritual power
and meaning. The Personal and Impersonal aspects of Reality, the stages
of formation of the universe from the Supreme Mother, the relation between
man and the Supreme, the subtle energies in man that bring him in communion
with the Divine, the higher faculties that express in him as this communion
deepens, are all dealt with in this unique hymn. The daily contemplation
of this hymn reinforces human life, liberates man from his pestering
doubts and anxieties, and gives him the knowledge and experience of
his transcendental Divinity. The book is an exploration of this great
hymn with a modern perspective.
SRI-
CHAKRAM
The Form of the Formless
Another book
awaiting publication. Sri-Chakram is a power-laden spiritual symbol
having profound inner meaning. It represents the stages of evolution
of the univers from the central Divine Reality. It also reveals the
phases through which man can free himself from his restrictive physical
conditioning and expand to the higher stages of consciousness and freedom.
The mathematical qualities of the symbol have become an enigma to the
scientists and there are continuing research and study of this mystic
design we inherit from the remote past. The book explores into the various
spiritual and scientific aspects of Sri-Chakram, which has a special
significance in the worship of Divine Mother.
