timeless wisdom for today
I haven't read any other translation of the Gita, so I don't have any opinion about this translation vis a vis any other translation. However, I can say that this translation is simple to read and understand, and that the message of the Gita has had an enormous impact ...

Christopher Isherwood
, ...
Vedanta Press & Bookshop
, 2007
Union with God
This book teaches yoga in its true form. Yoga in America is not the same; it is Hatha Yoga that is used solely to have a healthier body. It is godless yoga. The Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali reminds us the goal of yoga. How did the Western world forget that yoga means ...
Sermon on the Mount According to Vedanta
Swami Prabhavananda

Very well done
It's always interesting to see the outsider's view of something you have come to understand in one certain way; to see it through fresh eyes can make it new again. This book is a superb example of exactly that. It is probably impossible to come away from this book ...

The Upanishads are a part of the Vedas, the oldest and most authoritative scriptures of India.

Best Definition/Description of God

Srimad Bhagavatam: The Wisdom of God
Vedanta Pr

Reads like Scripture.
If you are familiar with reading Hindu scriptures, like the Bhagavad Gita, and or the Upanishads, and you enjoyed that, I think that you would enjoy this. The Srimad Bhagavatam reads like a series of essays on proper living. A guide book to spiritual discipline, ...
The Song of God Bhagavad Gita

The essense of the twelve principle Upanishads
_If you have ever been intimidated by the multi-volume scholarly translations of the Upanishads, then this book is for you. I still marvel at how Prabhavananda and Manchester managed to encapsulate so much of the core content and meaning of the twelve principle ...
