The perfect place to begin your practice of yogic worship. Lord Shiva is the Consciousness of Infinite Goodness, and his five letter mantra makes His puja an excellent starting point for first time Sanskrit chanters. Pu means merit and ja means to give birth. Puja is that which gives birth to merit, and in our tradition the highest merit is the privilege to sit in the presence of God. Puja is an ancient system of worship designed to guide the mind to this experience. This book contains all the elements for a proper puja, including Shiva's meditation, mantras for the articles of worship, His one hundred and eight names, arati, and the Shiva Calisa. All mantras are presented with the original Sanskrit, Roman transliteration, and English translation. Also included is a guide to Sanskrit pronunciation.

Ganesha is the first son of Shiva and Parvati. He is the Lord of the Multitudes. He is the door-keeper; he holds the key to the inner sanctum of the heart, where the Divine Mother resides. He is the first to be worshipped so that the endeavors we embark upon are free of obstacles. The Ganesha Puja presents a philosophy that we can practice. It is a great place to start learning puja, and a wonderful doorway into meditation and worship. In addition, at the end of the book, Swamiji has included an article addressing the 36 principles of Tantra philosophy and how they relate to Yoga, Karma, and ultimately how to retrace our steps from the manifest back to the unmanifest. It is true that without Wisdom, it is impossible for any seeker to unlock the doors to the secret of Enlightenment. Ganesha Puja is presented with original Sanskrit mantras, Roman transliteration, and a complete English translation.

"Shiva does not spell religion. Shiva spells responsibility -- our ability to take our very life process in our hands.'' -- Sadhguru 'Shi-va' is 'that which is not', a primordial emptiness; Shiva is also the first-ever yogi, Adiyogi, the one who first perceived this emptiness. Adiyogi is symbol and myth, historic figure and living presence, creator and destroyer, outlaw and ascetic, cosmic dancer and passionate lover, all at once.A book like no other, this extraordinary document is a tribute to Shiva, the Adiyogi, by a living yogi; a chronicle of the progenitor of mysticism by a contemporary mystic. Here science and philosophy merge seamlessly, so do silence and sound, question and answer--to capture the unspeakable enigma of Adiyogi in a spellbinding wave of words and ideas that will leave one entranced, transformed.
