India from Within A Guide to India’s History, Religion, Arts, Culture and Society
Indian society is manifold and extremely complex. The richness of the Indian subcontinent defies and exceeds all facile explanations or generalizations, and cannot be adequately interpreted through western concepts.
This book tries to clear a path towards an understanding of this immense country, home to a civilization that has endured without interruption for millennia. In this small encyclopaedia of India, the author explains the roots and foundations of Indian civilization, covering almost every aspect of Indian culture; its broad topics include History, Religion, Society, Arts, The State, and travel. Offering an illuminating selection of information concerning many aspects of India, this is surely among the most complete cultural guides about this country and its varied cultures.

Kashmir Saivism The Central Philosophy of Tantrism
Dr. Mishra's comprehensive book is learned without being tedious; philosophical without being intellectually arid; and readable without being banal. Above all, it preserves the aroma of spiritual practice that is fundamental to the Pratyabhijna tradition. Anyone interested in the metaphysics of spiritual practice or in Yoga and Tantrism will read this book with immense profit.--Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D.

Light on the Doctrine of Krama A Translation of Srikramanaya-pradipika of Swami Lakshmanjoo
Swami Lakshmanjoo was born in Kashmir in 1907. He revived Kashmir Saiva Darsana through his teachings and discourses, and was the last in the unbroken lineage of Saiva masters. This book is an English translation of a short treatise on Krama written by him in 1958. Swami Lakshmanjoo brings Kalisastra to light, describing the twelve Kalis, as given in the Kramastotra and the Tantraloka. In doing so, he presents the twelve sequential states of yoga for the highest of yogis (one who is endowed with the miracle of Turiya in the three states of wakefulness, dreaming and dreamless sleep).
