R. K. Narayan (1906—2001) witnessed nearly a century of change in his native India and captured it in fiction of uncommon warmth and vibrancy. The four novels collected here, all written during British rule, bring colonial India into intimate focus through the narrative gifts of this master of literary realism. Swami and Friends introduces us to Narayan’s beloved fictional town of Malgudi, where ten-year-old Swaminathan’s excitement about his country’s initial stirrings for independence competes with his ardor for cricket and all other things British. The Bachelor of Arts is a poignant coming-of-age novel about a young man flush with first love, but whose freedom to pursue it is hindered by the fixed ideas of his traditional Hindu family. In The Dark Room, Narayan’s portrait of aggrieved domesticity, the docile and obedient Savitri, like many Malgudi women, is torn between submitting to her husband’s humiliations and trying to escape them. The title character in The English Teacher, Narayan’s most autobiographical novel, searches for meaning when the death of his young wife deprives him of his greatest source of happiness. These pioneering novels, luminous in their detail and refreshingly free of artifice, are a gift to twentieth-century literature.

Less than a week after he finished reading Autobiography of a Yogi, by Paramhansa Yogananda, Swami Kriyananda traveled from New York City to Los Angeles, California and was initiated by Yogananda himself as a disciple and a monk. It was September 12, 1948. James Donald Walters, as he was known then, was twenty-two years old."You have a great work to do," his Guru told him repeatedly. This was not a compliment; it was a sacred responsibility.When Yogananda died in 1952, he left a "blueprint in the ether," he said, for a worldwide spiritual awakening. For sixty-five years Kriyananda worked with prodigious creativity to turn that "blueprint" into a practical way of life. He founded communities, retreats, and schools for children. He wrote over four hundred pieces of music and dozens of books, available now in a hundred countries in thirty languages. He traveled the world, lecturing in five languages, and personally initiated thousands of people into Kriya Yoga.Asha Nayaswami met Kriyananda in 1969, when she was twenty-two. Recognition was immediate. "My Polestar," she called him. Soon he asked her to start taking notes for the book she would someday write about him. For 44 years she was in constant contact with Kriyananda as devotee, friend, personal assistant, and eventually spiritual leader in her own right.By every measure - spiritual and material - his was a triumphant life. Success, however, did not come easily. He was plagued by ill-health, financial challenges, and years of persecution from fellow disciples, including a massive lawsuit that took a dozen years to resolve. The lesson of Kriyananda's life is in the struggle as well as the triumph. This is a first-hand account of life with a great spiritual teacher, one who came not to show the world how great he is, but to awaken in everyone faith in their own spiritual potential.

Swami Abhishiktananda (Henri le Saux, 1910-1973) is one of the most intriguing spiritual figures of the twentieth century. A Breton-born monk who moved to India in 1948, he initially hoped to Christianize India along Benedictine lines. Instead his deep encounter with Hindu spirituality, particularly the experience of "non-duality," led him on an even more challenging and adventurous path, adopting the appearance and life if an Indian holy man. His last years were spent living as a hermit in the Himalayas.

Colour printed - 130 illustrations Tales of meetings with Dandi Swami Narayananand Saraswati, the Guru's Will, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi & the Shankaracharyas of Jyotir Math. 'Dandi Swami' is a book celebrating the life of Dandi Swami Narayananand Saraswati and explores the lives of others from his lineage of thinkers. Dandi Swami Narayananand Saraswati was a contempory of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the man who popularised Transcendental Meditation. Both used to listen to the teachings of the same guru, Shankaracharya Swami Brahmanand Saraswati. When the guru died he left a Will empowering one of his disciples to take his place as Shankaracharya of Jyotir Math, in the Himalayas. Not everyone was happy with the Will, and there have been disputes over succession ever since. It appears that Dandi Swami was offered the post of Shankaracharya but declined, preferring a life of seclusion. 'Dandi Swami' presents many quotations from Dandi Swami's teacher, Swami Shantanand, providing food for thought, and spiritual solice. 'Dandi Swami' includes selected quotations from Swami Brahmanand, a guru who had the ear of the first President of India. 'Dandi Swami' explores spiritual questions through the eyes of those that meet with Dandi Swami. Accounts of visitors such as Rob H van Dijk and Paul Mason offer glimpses into the life and beliefs of this humble hermit. An interview with David Sieveking offers futher insights into the retiring personality of Dandi Swami.

The power that emanated from this mysterious being (Swami Vivekananda) was so great that one all but shrank from it. It was overwhelming. It threatened to sweep everything before it...Still, those who feared to be caught in the current of this great power were but few; the others by thousands were drawn with the irresistible force, even as iron filings to a magnet. He had a power of attraction so great that those who came near him, men and women alike, even children, fell under the magic spell he cast.--Sister ChristineMore than sixty recollections by men and women who met and knew Swami Vivekananda are gathered together in this very special book. There is so much material about him by so many people, that it is possible to get a very good idea of what he was like, the power he possessed, and most important, the kind of person he was.This new, 5th edition, of Reminiscences of Swami Vivekananda includes twenty-two additional reminiscences as well as enlargements of some of the previous writings. More than 250 pages have been added, making the book an even greater resource for the understanding of Swami Vivekananda.

The life of His Holiness Swami Shri Kripalvanandji (1913-81) is one of rare dedication to God and Guru. One can hardly imagine his journey much less aspire to replicate it. Attaining the highest states of yoga, he is one of the 20th century’s most revered examples of saints on the path of nivritti marg, the path to ultimate liberation through renunciation. A sannyasin of the highest order, Swami Kripalu endured trials of faith throughout his path, never doubting the guidance of his guru, Lord Lakulish, who was the incarnation of Lord Shiva himself. It was this exceptional blessing that guided him through his remarkable path. Witnessing Swami Kripalu’s example from the age of 15, Amrit Desai is one of only five disciples who received direct teaching from this great Kundalini Yoga Master. Despite having many thousands of followers, Swami Kripalu hand-picked Amritji as a chosen shisya (spiritual student), continuing to guide him until his death at 69. Amritji, himself a renowned guru and yoga master, maintained correspondence with his teacher even after moving to America. It is this precious communication from 1966-73 that is revealed within these pages. The letters are full of wisdom, guidance and humor. Never before have the letters been translated from Gujarati to English and are only now available to inspire modern followers on the path of the Lakulish Lineage of Masters.

This collection includes dialogues from 1962–1966 that contain Swami Muktananda's replies to questions covering a wide range of spiritual topics, as well as rare photographs from the early days of his teaching mission.

An enthusiastic, comprehensive biography in two volumes of Swami Vivekananda. This book is Volume 2, which starts after his appearance at the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893. Volume one is a separately purchased title.

Swami Kripalu was a remarkable man, a bridge between the traditions of ancient India and contemporary Western society. A yoga master renowned for the intensity of his spiritual practice and the depth of his compassion, Swami Kripalu came to the United States in 1977 where he spent the last four years of his life in residence at the original Kripalu Center founded by Yogi Amrit Desai in Sumneytown, Pennsylvania. Primarily a compilation of quotes from Swami Kripalu's four years in the West, this book also draws on translations of earlier talks and written works that remain unpublished in English. The introduction and commentary by Richard Faulds is provided to set a broad context in which the meaning of the quotes can be understood and applied to yoga practice. Swami Kripalu was the inspiration behind Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Lenox, Massachusetts, the largest yoga, health, and program center in North America.
