The Ritual of Battle
This book is a study of India's great epic, the Mahabharata, against the background of Indo-European myth, epic and ritual. It builds upon the pioneering studies in these ares by Georges Dumezil and Stig Wikander to work toward the goal of understanding how this epic's Indo-European heritage is interpreted and reshaped within the setting of bhakti or devotional Hinduism.
Mahabharata

Combined with the Ramayana, it embodies the essence of the Indian cultural heritage...an absorbing tale of a feud between two branches of a single Indian ruling family that culminates in a vast, cataclysmic battle....has retold the story so that the modern reader will not be discouraged from knowing and loving the stories as he did himself.
The Mahabharata and Greek Mythology
The few thousand-year-old history of the human race, just as the much shorter history of urban societies and the written tradition, is a story of encounters, of exchanges, and the formation, alteration and disappearance of those specific groupings of people and their legacies which we call cultures or societies. Progress is the fruit of our capacity to create, to work together, to accept and reinterpret all that has been discovered and all that has been learned.
The Hidden Wisdom of the Goddess
The hidden Wisdom of the Goddess is an extended meditation in the form of a novel that follows the Devimahatmya's basic outline, condensed here and expanded there in freely imaginative ways. In the Devimahatmya the seer Medhas teaches through the language of myth, which cries out for interpretation, because little is spelled out.
