"Are Eastern practices useful for psychological growth? Is psychoanalysis an aid on an Eastern path? Carl Gustav Jung had the realization of the existence of a center deep within our being, the Self, the discovery of which is the goal of individuation: the process of psychological development. Unable to find analogies to the Self in Christianity, he turned to Eastern religions, uncovering and finding a reflection of this miracle in Daoism and Hinduism, while also examining Buddhism and Sufism. Eastern paths and their practices, such as meditation, mindfulness, and yoga, have been absorbed into Western culture. It is thus timely to approach the contemporary relevance of Eastern religions and practices to the Jungian path of individuation. These essays are personal, engaging, and contain a refined analysis of whether these two paths may work together or are pointing to different end points.

This handbook is a comprehensive study of the archaeology, social history and the cultural landscape of the Hindu temple. Perhaps the most recognizable of the material forms of Hinduism, temples are lived, dynamic spaces. They are significant sites for the creation of cultural heritage, both in the past and in the present.Drawing on historiographical surveys and in-depth case studies, the volume centres the material form of the Hindu temple as an entry point to study its many adaptations and transformations from the early centuries CE to the 20th century. It highlights the vibrancy and dynamism of the shrine in different locales and studies the active participation of the community for its establishment, maintenance and survival.The illustrated handbook takes a unique approach by focusing on the social base of the temple rather than its aesthetics or chronological linear development. It fills a significant gap in the study of Hinduism and will be an indispensable resource for scholars of archaeology, Hinduism, Indian history, religious studies, museum studies, South Asian history and Southeast Asian history.Chapters 1, 4 and 5 of this book are available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the individual product page at www.routledge.com.

This book explores the cross- and trans-cultural dialectic between Tantra and intersecting magical and shamanic phenomena associated with vernacular religions across Monsoon Asia.

Practitioners of the ancient science of yoga have long contended that you don't have to be a Hindu, in the conventional sense, to practise yoga, even though its origins lie in India. Renowned spiritual teacher, author, social reformer, educationist and global speaker Sri M goes a step further in this new and path- breaking book-he proves that, let alone belonging to a particular religion, one doesn't even need to believe in God to be a true yogi. One of the best-known Vedantic scholars of our times, he draws on his deep knowledge of ancient Indian scriptures to prove that the godless are as capable as the God-inspired of reaching the pinnacle of self-realisation and bliss through yoga. Based on a profound understanding of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, this is a step-by- step guide to the theory and practice of yoga for those who seek to know it better, and also for the young and the millennial, who may be stepping out for the first time. In lucid prose, with photographs for visual aid, Sri M takes us through the most complex notions of breath, body and posture with admirable brevity and clarity.

Sri Ramakrishna (1836-1886) gilt als einer der bekanntesten indischen Heiligen. Er lebte im 19. Jh. in der Tempelanlage von Dakshineswar in der Nähe von Kalkutta. Nachdem er dort jahrelang spirituelle Übungen aus verschiedenen Traditionen ausgeführt hatte und mit ihnen zu Ende gekommen war, stellten sich Schüler ein, Verheiratete und unverheiratete junge Männer, von denen letztere nach seinem Tod den Mönchsorden gründeten. Angezogen von seiner starken Persönlichkeit und inneren Reinheit kamen auch viele Besucher aus allen Bevölkerungsschichten, um in seiner Gegenwart zu sein, ihre Fragen zu stellen und seiner Lehre zuzuhören. In seiner spontanen, einfachen Art belehrte er sie auf sehr anschauliche Weise, indem er Beispiele aus dem Alltagsleben und Gleichnisse verwandte, wovon diese Sammlung von 1120 Aussprüchen und Gleichnissen zeugt.

The ¿r¿cakra is ubiquitous in modern culture, and found everywhere, from store fronts and yoga studios to logos and jewelry. Yet, this ancient and celebrated symbol remains a mystery. The ¿r¿cakra is an extraordinary map of the macrocosm that flawlessly reflects the microcosm. In this book, the ¿r¿cakra is examined in a practical fashion as it applies to the microcosm - the body and mind that are readily available for observation and transmutation. The practice of the ¿r¿cakra reveals its elements within the body-mind, which becomes the yantra (instrument) enlivened by the mantra (sacred sound) of the breath. No aspect of existence is excluded in the practice of the ¿r¿cakra, which contains and projects the infinite fractals of Reality. The esoteric and the mundane come together within its lines and curves to provide the perfect map of the enlightened life.This book is the modern description of the ¿r¿cakra with an emphasis on the practical application of its principles even while adhering to the tradition of ¿r¿vidy¿ and ¿¿kta tantra.

Every human soul is divine and valuable. An embodied being¿s ultimate purpose is the enjoyment of Supreme bliss as a free soul (Mukta, salvation, liberation) in the highest heaven. Enjoyment is also the basis of happiness upon earth. It leads to the spiritual enlightenment for happy, healthy, and peaceful life and environment. The knowledge of self is what leads to the knowledge of God and this knowledge is the road to eternal happiness or bliss. Real happiness cannot be found externally, it must be realized within. The soul of a man is in the hidden structure of God. He is inside all of us. All life comes from God. The causes of unhappiness are our ego, our prejudice, our desire, and our impropriety. There must not be any lust and hatred, neither longing for one thing, nor any loathing the opposite. The world is spiraling toward conflict, belligerence, and disharmony and is now going through an unprecedented spiritual crisis, class confrontation, calamity, and nuclear and terrorists¿ threats. The rise of drug use, the rise of broken families, the rise of the number of single parents, the rise of school and public space mass shootings, the rise of suicides and depression, the rise of sexual scandals among priests and media, rise of overuse of iPad and smartphones by young kids are all threatening our home, society, schools, and the environment with vicious violence, menacing insecurity, wild protests, and rampant immorality.

LOS CHAKRASEn la ciencia antigua del tantra se considera al cuerpo como el instrumento mas perfecto para la expresion de la conciencia. Esa perfeccion se lleva a cabo gracias al desarrollo de los centros psiquicos, o chakras.

En consecuencia, conseguiremos un estado iluminado del ser mediante la comprension y utilizacion de la energia de los chakras.Harish Johari, estudioso y practicante indu del tantra, nos presenta los principios clasicos de los chakras, asi como la aplicacion practica que tienen actualmente.

Con bellas ilustraciones a todo color. Johari nos proporciona imagenes, al mismo tiempo tradicionales y visionarias, de cada chakra; la meditacion sobre esas imagenes vitaliza los centros cerebroespinales al tiempo que armoniza fisica y psiquicamente todo el sistema. Los dibujos lineales permiten al aspirante colorear las imagenes a modo de ejercicio de visualizacion y contemplacion de los chakras. Las secciones dedicadas a cada uno de ellos revelan las correspondencias que tienen con los mantras, colores, signos astrologicos y deidades, asi como con los diversos tipos de personalidad y las caracteristicas conductuales.
