Motilal Banarsidass
Spiritual treasure of St. Ramadasa
To write about the different modes of worshipping God and to say about the relation between the devotee and God without referencen to the speculative problems in philosophy is also easy. But to take into consideration both the intellectual quest of the philosopher and the actual devotional interest and practice of an aspirant and the experiences and the mature wisdom of a saint, and then to construct a philosophy of religion which all easy. This becomes all the more difficult when one has to deal with the polytheistic belief of the Hindus, and then to reconcile it with monotheism and monism, and to synthesize it future with mystical realization.
Tantric Yoga and the Wisdom Goddesses
Tantric Yoga and the Wisdom Goddesses is an excellent book introducing the essence of Hindu Tantrism.

The Advaita Vedanta of Siva Samhita
Siva Samhita has come to be known as one of the three source texts for the Hatha Yoga tradition.

The Chakra-Handbook
The Gitagovinda of Jayadeva
It desscribes the loves of Krsna and Radha in twelve cantos containing twenty-four songs. The songs are sung by Krsna or Radha or by Radha's mind and are connected by brief narrative or descriptive passages. The appropriate musical mode and rhythm for each song are noted in the text. This poem is really a kind of drama, of the ragakavya type, since it is usually acted.
The Kundalini Book of Living & Dying
The Kundalini Book of Living and Dying shows how to awaken Kundalini and experience the power of spiritual rebirth. It describes the seven divisions of the universe and details of the astral plane, the properties of the soul, scientific evidence of the soul's existence, and various methods of achieving higher consciousness through Kundalini awakening.
The Oracle of Rama
Oracles are always popular because we are all interested in our destiny and the meaning of our lives. Particularly we want to know the future, which is always mysterious and uncertain. The proliferation of various New Age oracles, the multiplicity of Tarot cards, and the enduring interest in the I Ching are modern proof of this.
The Supreme Yoga : Yoga Vasistha
The Yoga Vasistha has been a favourite book of spiritual seekers in India these several centuries. Its special appeal lies in its thoroughly rational approach, and in its presentation of Vedanta as a philosophy to bridge the gulf between the secular and the sacred, action and contemplation, in human life, through a comprehensive and lofty spirituality.
The Timing of Events
The Timing of Events fulfils an important gap in classical astrological literature. The ancient seers with yogic siddhis did not need rules for predicting future events. They clairvoyantly saw the future course of events. The astrological principles are given for those who are not so evolved. The astrological principles aim at helping those who are interested to live a life according to the evolutionary course of their everyday life.
The Two Truths in Chinese Buddhism
This book originates from a thesis work whereby it is one of the first comprehensive study of Chi-tsang's treatment of The Two Truths in English. The work aims to build up a strong interest in readers, paritularly, people in Western societies who are unfamiliar with Chinese tradition, culture and language. It is, therefore, of considerable significance in enabling scholarly readers who do not have access to Chinese Originals to gain a well-rounded and diversified appreciation of Madhyamaka interpretation.
