The Way of Peace and Blessedness

By: Swami Paramananda

“LIKE ‘The Path of Devotion’ by the same author, the present volume is made up in chief measure of extracts from letters; hence the living, personal note that sounds through its pages. According to Vedanta, religion is always an individual problem and the truest method of transmitting it the individual method. It must be a direct call from the wise and loving heart of the Teacher to the questioning heart of the disciple, the immediate quickening of the letter by the spirit. The great Vedic Scriptures are nothing more: a mighty Seer of Truth sitting in the shaded seclusion of an Himalayan forest, passing on to some eager, inquiring student the fruits of his realization. And wherever this note is heard, whether in the eternal word of a Scripture or in the admonitions of a simple letter, it cannot fail to stir to new life the spiritual consciousness. “The Way of Peace and Blessedness must ever be the way of consecrated service to a lofty Ideal, through unwavering trust, purity of heart and steadfast devotion. To follow it, one must rouse the soul from its slumber of ignorance or indifference and make it feel the reality of God and the spiritual life; one must learn how to worship Truth and gain the Divine vision, how to love and work unselfishly and prayerfully. These are the lessons taught in these pages, lessons too potent and precious to be kept for one only; so they have been gathered up into this little book, which is now sent forth with its holy message in the earnest hope that through it many may find peace and blessing.”—DEVAMATA

Healing Meditations

By: Swami Paramananda

First published in 1932, this little book from Swami Paramananda, the highly-regarded Vedanta philosopher and teacher, contains nine guided meditations—one each for the individual to address life’s problems and issues. “THERE is nothing so potent as meditation to re-establish our rhythm when our mind is tossed by the waves of unruly thought. “There is no ill in life that cannot be cured by right meditation. “True meditation purifies our mind and clarifies our vision. “True meditation gives us, as it were, wings for flight to a higher realm and thus detaches us from terrestrial fetters. “It is through the habit of meditation we overcome all our sorrows and afflictions. “For every ill there is a meditation. There is the Meditation of Life, Meditation of Light, Meditation of Purity, Meditation of Humility, Meditation of Joy, Meditation of Freedom, Meditation of Love, Meditation of Wisdom, Meditation of Peace.”—Swami Paramananda

The Self Beyond Psychology

The Self Beyond Psychology

By: Swami Paramananda

Swami Paramananda, an enlightened mystic, has once more met the challenge of bridging the gap between science and spirituality. In his 30th book, The Self Beyond Psychology, he has not only brilliantly exposed the limitations of psychology, but also revealed the true nature of the self, which so far has proved to be beyond its scope. As he so rightly states, "Psychology, which boasts of being a science of human behaviour, has, like mainstream science, failed to understand the fundamental nature of man." The reader will be marvelled to travel in the inner universe, far beyond the limits of contemporary psychology, to probe into the mystery of the self, skilfully revealed by the light of wisdom of Swamiji. From this novel standpoint, humanity will no doubt be empowered with the precious knowledge it so badly needs to free itself from the quagmire of confusion and ignorance in which it is presently enmeshed. This laudable endeavour of Swami Paramananda indeed provides a true holistic understanding of human nature in contrast with the fragmentary and partial understanding of mainstream science and psychology.

Creative Power of Silence

Creative Power of Silence

By: Swami Paramananda

Silence, the great unseen power, the miracle of life, works upon our character with strange contrast. Prior to spiritual studies, the idea of complete silence is strongly advocated by many. In practicing the silence, it is found to unfold our higher nature. The silence allows concentration. With the intrusion of noise, the mind cannot be receptive. Contrary to some belief, the silence is not to free the mind to allow emptiness. It means co-ordination of body and mind. It reduces friction and becomes a definite factor for our concentrated thought. The silence is essential for all forms of study. “A silent being is a very restful being. All wise people realize the deeper part of our nature can only be expressed effectively when our outer being is still.”

Plato and Vedic Idealism

By: Swami Paramananda

Vedanta, along with Sankhya, Yoga, Nyaya, Vaisheshika, and Mimamsa, is one of the six Hindu theist philosophies. It focuses heavily on the Upanishads, which center concepts such as Brahman (ultimate reality) and Atman (soul, self). In Plato and Vedic Idealism, which was first published in 1924, Swami Paramananda explores similarities between Greek philosophy, with emphasis on Plato, and Vedic philosophy.

Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Madhya-lila

Sri Caitanya-caritamrta, Madhya-lila

The Pastimes of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu

By: His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

Sri Chaitanya-charitamrta is the main work on the life and teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the incarnation of Krishna who appeared in India five hundred years ago. Lord Chaitanya introduced the chanting of the holy names of God as the prescribed method of God-realization for our time. He began what is today called the Hare Krishna movement, since the movement's founder, Srila Prabhupada, comes in the Chaitanya line of spiritual masters. Lord Chaitanya transformed the face of India in four respects: philosophically, by encountering, defeating and converting the greatest philosophers and thinkers of His day; religiously, by organizing the largest, most widespread theistic movement in India's history; socially, by His strong challenges to the religious inequities of the caste system; politically, by His organization of a massive civil disobedience movement in Bengal, more than four centuries before Gandhi. This English translation with commentary, by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, reveals his consummate Bengali and Sanskrit scholarship, his intimate familiarity with the precepts of Sri Chaitanya, and his pure devotion to God.

OM the Eternal Witness

Secrets of the Mandukya Upanishad

By: Swami Rama

The Upanishads are called shruti, revelations. Mandukya Upanishad, though the shortest of all Upanishads, is a revered, profound Upnaishad that teaches us about four states of consciousness: the waking, dreaming and sleeping states and Turiya, the fourth state, beyond the first three. In this Upanishad, there is a unique combination of psychology and profound philosophy, a clear exposition of the four states of consciousness.

APAROKSHANUBHUTI

By: Swami Chinmayananda

Aparokshanubhuti is an original composition of Sri Adi Sankaracharya, is an introductory text explaining the fundamental concepts and terminologies used in Vedanta, the Science of Life. Literally meaning the "Indirect Experience," it is a hands-on book for anyone who seeks the essential nature of reality and existence. The commentary by Swami Chinmayananda on this text brings out a very modern outlook on this age-old composition. His compelling logic and reasoning puts the stated ideas and concepts in its most pragmatic form enabling us to use it as a vehicle for contemplation and meditation on the highest Truth as declared in the Scriptures.

The Upanishads

By: Swami Parmananda

Purchase one of 1st World Library's Classic Books and help support our free internet library of downloadable eBooks. 1st World Library-Literary Society is a non-profit educational organization. Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - The translator's idea of rendering the Upanishads into clear simple English, accessible to Occidental readers, had its origin in a visit paid to a Boston friend in 1909. The gentleman, then battling with a fatal malady, took from his library shelf a translation of the Upanishads and, opening it, expressed deep regret that the obscure and unfamiliar form shut from him what he felt to be profound and vital teaching. The desire to unlock the closed doors of this ancient treasure house, awakened at that time, led to a series of classes on the Upanishads at The Vedanta Centre of Boston during its early days in St. Botolph Street. The translation and commentary then given were trans-cribed and, after studious revision, were published in the Centre's monthly magazine, "The Message of the East," in 1913 and 1914.. Still further revision has brought it to its present form.
