Discover the profound spiritual wisdom of the ancient seers of the Rig Veda in Indra, Lord of Light in Mind - the first volume in the pathbreaking series on the Spiritual Interpretation of Rig Veda in the Light of Sri Aurobindo. The initial section draws upon the spiritual insights of Sri Aurobindo to focus on the inner meaning of Vedic Yajna, Mantra, Gods, the seven Worlds and the Sacrificial Calendar. Marvel at the vivid portrayal of Indra in Sri Aurobindo's writings and translations in the next section, as the Lord of Enlightenment hurls his Bolt of Lightening (Vajra), destroying the Demons of Darkness (Vritra, Vali and Pani) to release the rays of Truth-Light imprisoned by them. Walk the ancient pilgrim path illumined by the inspired translations of the hymns to Indra from the Rig Veda, never translated by Sri Aurobindo. The translations with detailed notes, based on the author's "Vedic Dictionary in the Light of Sri Aurobindo", shed light on the hidden meanings of the ancient seers following the clues revealed by Sri Aurobindo. By a happy coincidence, the book on the Lord of Light is seeing the light of day on Summer Solstice - the longest Day of the year when the Creator of Light - Surya, showers the maximum Light upon the earth!

The echoes of ancient Indian wisdom can be heard from the oldest of scriptures that existed many years ago. Even thousands of years before they were written down on palm leaves, the teachings were passed on from generations to generations, from the teachers to the disciples in their oral form. These works are amongst the oldest of humanity. They laid the foundation of one of the most tolerant and diverse religions in the world, the Sanatan Dharma or Hinduism, which is marked by a wide range of ethos and philosophical approaches. Covering the vastness and immensity of the ancient Indian scriptures is akin to capturing a gigantic ocean in a small pitcher. Thus, in this book, the author has tried to catch a few 'echoes' resonating with age-old wisdom and has presented them to the readers. the book unravels the knowledge hidden inside the Samhitas, Brahmanas, Aranyakas and Upanishads of the Shruti that form the Vedas, and in the Smriti like Agamas, Dharma Shastras and so on. In short, it provides a glimpse, or rather a macro view of the ancient treasure of India.

When Indra launched an experiment to stop wars by engaging a troupe of seductresses, the first of its kind in the history of mankind, he had no idea that it could swing both ways. He was not coercing them either. The Apsaras had been created by Brahmadev for that one purpose only; seducing males. However, Indra's masterstroke did go askew and totally out of his control overridden by the diktats of the body, the mind and the soul of one and all, himself included. Indra's life story is a veritable tour of Hindu mythology for he is the key mover in a number of events and has interacted with almost all the leading characters. Conjecturally a true Aryan hero, blond and blue-eyed, Indra is more human than divine and therefore, endearingly closer to us, the now people.
