Description
Shafts of Light is a valuable new guide to the practice of Vedanta and inner yoga: a priceless collection of spiritual instructions from Swami Ashokananda (1893-1969) to his close American disciples. Vedanta's eternal truths come alive in Swami Ashokananda's down-to-earth words of encouragement and advice. More than eight hundred passages shed light on the spiritual path, with a well-written introduction that informs readers about Vedanta and eases them into the disciplines described in the text. Early chapters, such as those on conflicts and criticism, show how to cope with negative attitudes by strengthening inner resources; later chapters such as "Be Calm" and "Meditate" guide readers toward a higher state of consciousness. Whatever the topic for contemplation, the Swami's lessons hit their mark in ways both witty and wise. These practical teachings can help readers from all faiths enjoy a deeper spiritual life.
