A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada was a visionary spiritual teacher and the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Born as Abhay Charan De on September 1, 1896, in Calcutta, India, he dedicated his life to spreading the teachings of Krishna consciousness worldwide. In 1922, he met Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur, who urged him to share Vedic knowledge in English. This encounter shaped his mission, leading him to take sannyasa (renounced order) in 1959 and begin translating and commenting on sacred texts like the Bhagavad Gita and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

Spiritual Teachings of Ancient India by Swami Tadatmananda resident Teacher

കേദാർനാഥിലേക്കും ബദരീനാഥിലേക്കും ഒരു പരിവർത്തന തീർത്ഥാടനത്തിൽ എന്നോടൊപ്പം ചേരൂ. ദുർഘടമായ ഹിമാലയൻ പാതകളിലൂടെ, പുരാതന പാരമ്പര്യങ്ങളുമായി ഞാൻ ബന്ധപ്പെടുകയും ദേവതകളുടെ മുന്നിൽ സമാധാനം കണ്ടെത്തുകയും ചെയ്തു. പർവ്വതങ്ങളാൽ ...

The original "Yoga Secrets of Patanjali" are in themselves exceedingly brief, less than 10 pages in the original ancient texts. Yet, as they are based upon the great, timeless Bhagavad Gita, they contain the essence of all practical wisdom, set forth in admirable order and great detail. This timeless theme brings forth a palpable spiritual regeneration, the rebirth of the spiritual from the psychical: the same sacred theme that the realized yogis of India so wisely and eloquently set forth over 5,000 years ago.

Artha-shastra is about generating food, i.e. wealth, by creating goods and services; Kama-shastra is about indulging our hungers with this food. Dharma-shastra insists we consider the hunger of others, while Moksha-shastra is about outgrowing our hungers, in order to be detached and generous...

The distinction between the Hindus and Untouchables in its original form, before the advent of Untouchability, was the distinction between Tribesmen and Broken Men from alien Tribes. It is the Broken Men who subsequently came to be treated as Untouchables. In searching for the origin of Untouchability care must be taken to distinguish the Untouchables from the Impure. All orthodox Hindu writers have identified the Impure with the Untouchables. This is an error. Untouchables are distinct from the Impure.

భగవాన్ వేదవ్యాస మహర్షి రచించిన అష్టాదశ పురాణాలు ఎంతో విశిష్టమైనవి. ఈ అష్టాదశ పురాణాలే కాక అష్టాదశ ఉప పురాణాలు కూడా వ్యాసుల వారి రచనలు గానే లోకంలో ప్రసిద్ధి చెందాయి. ఈ ఉప పురాణాలలో ఎంతో విశిష్టమైనది, మహిమాన్వితమైనది శ్రీ గణేశ పురాణం. నలభై అధ్యాయాలుగా రచించబడిన ఈ దివ్యపురాణంలో గణేశుడి లీలలు, గణేశ మంత్ర మహిమ, గణేశ పూజా విధానం లాంటి విశేషాలు ఎన్నో చెప్పబడ్డాయి. పరమ పవిత్రమైన ఈ పురాణాన్ని శ్రద్ధ భక్తులతో విని తరించండి.

Swami Satchidananda was the founder of Integral Yoga International.

Swami was born into a loving spiritual family on December 22nd in 1914, during the month known as Margali, the Dawn of the Devas.

Noted internationally known self-help advocate and teacher of devotional yoga Prana Govinda Das was born in Liverpool, England, in 1968, admittedly a pretty good year for all things bright and beautiful. He says, "From as early as I can remember I had an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, and a desire to understand the true nature of man and this world we live in. I was also always seeking out people who could answer all the questions I had about life, the universe, and everything."

One of the first pieces of Krishna-conscious literature widely distributed in the western world, this work inspired many to investigate the spiritual dimension of their lives. This is the opportunity to understand the deepest truth of devotional yoga.

Here, one of the most profound philosophers of India explains these and other related concepts intrinsic to the Hindu philosophy of life.

Samudra Manthan Ki Mahakatha takes you on an enchanting audio journey of the epic story that is deeply ingrained in the Hindu religion.
