Ganga Lahari The Flow of the Ganges
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).

Selected Writings of M.M. Gopinath Kaviraj
Gopinath Kaviraj (1887-1976) does not need presentation in the world of modern Indian philosophy and thought. He was for many years librarian in the Sanskrit College, Varanasi. He later became Principal of the Sanskrit College until 1937, when he voluntarily retired to devote himself to research and sadhana. He was conferred the titles of Mahamahopadhyaya in 1934 and of Padmavibhusana in 1964.

Now these most important words of Shankaracharya Swami Brahmanand Saraswati are being made available in this special edition, both in their original Hindi and in English, with translation done by Paul Mason.
