Let me introduce you to some of the greatest living Hindu women saints, like Ammachi, Shree Maa, Gurumayi, Anandi Ma, and Ma Yoga Shakti. I'll also tell you about some of the amazing women spiritual giants from India's past, and about women's spirituality in the Hindu tradition.

India is the one culture where the Goddess is still worshiped on a massive scale. It was a pleasure to introduce this continuous stream of Goddess spirituality, still flourishing in India's exotic temples, ecstatic festivals, and in the hearts of millions of devotees. I'd like you to meet the major Hindu goddesses and learn the spiritual practices associated with them. This is not a "fertility goddess" book, but represents the Divine Mother as the living force of universal awareness – just as she's really experienced by the adepts of her age-old tradition in South Asia.

Feel like your spiritual life is a bit dry? Seem like your spiritual practices aren't taking you anywhere? Confused about the "higher states of consciousness" you're supposed to be experiencing?

Hinduism is by far the most ancient of the world's major religions. It's the only world faith that acknowledges that the Supreme Being all religions worship is one and the same.

Vedic Astrology is one of the sacred sciences of the Hindu tradition. In India it's used to help us understand the karma we generated in our past incarnations, and how it's affecting our lives today. This book explores how astrology is used by the yoga adepts, how our thoughts and actions create our destiny, and how to read your own Vedic chart. I added four chapters of upayas I learned from my Indian teachers – spiritual techniques to clear out bad karma and correct imbalances in a horoscope. Vedic astrologers are physicians of the soul; they prescribe upayas when they see a problem area in a Vedic chart, such as unfulfilling relationships, professional frustration, financial fluctuations, and spiritual blocks.

"Probably the most readable and entertaining introduction to Vedic astrology yet available." Dr. David Frawley. American Institute of Vedic Studies.

"Destined to be a classic in the field of Vedic Astrology." Dennis Harness, Ph.D., American College of Vedic Astrology.

Lost Masters introduces the long-neglected pre-Christian spiritual masters of the Graeco-Roman world. We learned in school what the Greek philosophers had to say about science, but we never heard what they said about spirituality, even though spiritual life was often their highest priority. Nor did we hear about their links with the yogis of India, despite numerous references to these connections in ancient Greek and Latin texts. This book pulls together a wealth of information about the spiritual roots of Western civilization, and its astonishing parallels with the yoga tradition.

"It is a tragedy, and deeply absurd, that we in the West have lost touch with the wisdom of the extraordinary mystics who gave rise to our own civilization. This book is a lively and valuable introduction to that wisdom, and helps open the door again to those mystics and their transformative teachings." Peter Kingsley, Ph.D., author, In the Dark Places of Wisdom, and Reality.
