Vedānta-sūtra is the ultimate knowledge of the Vedas. Vedic knowledge is very elevated, having issued forth from Mahā-Viṣṇu, the Supreme Godhead, at the time of creation. The Vedānta-sūtras are extremely recondite and esoteric, and are thus accessible to ordinary human intelligence only in the context of a commentary. The natural commentary on Vedānta-sūtra is the Bhagavata-Purāṇa or Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, written by the same author, Śrīla Kṛṣṇa-dvaipāyana Vyāsadeva, Himself recognized as an incarnation of God in the Vedic literature. The theistic commentary of Baladeva is included, along with additional comments by the author to bring the timeless wisdom of Vedānta-sūtra to bear on issues of contemporary importance. Trade paperback, 8.5 x 11", three volumes, 868 pages, perfect bound, illustrations. Complete Contents after the break.

Transontology (transcendental ontology) is a new technology of consciousness enhancement based on the ancient Esoteric Teaching of the Sanskrit Vedas. Formerly it was carefully handed down for over 5,000 years as a secretive religious teaching. Transontology demystifies and open-sources this powerful technology so that interested professionals can develop new problem-solving applications in their areas of interest and expertise, and everyone can benefit from it. Previous versions of the Vedic Esoteric Teaching available in the West have been cripple-ware: deliberately distorted and incomplete copies of the original. The original source code and more powerful methods have been kept secret by esoteric traditions. Transontology provides the original, complete source code and an integrated development environment to the public for the first time.

Most people have heard the story of Jesus and his disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane. The core teaching of this familiar account from the New Testament is that when in difficulty, one should approach the spiritual Master Teacher or God to pray for advice and inspiration. The Lord will respond, either directly or through the spiritual Master Teacher, resolving the sincere disciple’s difficulty. This tenet is actually an integral part of the Esoteric Teaching from which all the bona fide religions in the world are derived. Therefore it is universally relevant to all Godly people, regardless of their doctrinal orientation or level of attainment in self-realization.

108 Aphorisms on the Mature Stage of Spiritual Life. The proverbs and aphorisms in this book were revealed to the author during an extensive series of meditations toward the end of 1998. The first hundred or so came within an intense two-day period, and the rest were added gradually afterward. I was inspired to compile these revelations into a book to demonstrate how God reciprocates our sincere prayers, and also to glorify this aspect of His compassion for the enlightenment of all. 182 pages, Trade Paperback, perfect bound 6 x 9", Creative Commons BY-NC-SA license. Perfect for introducing your Christian friends to the Esoteric Teaching.

Everyone has heard about the soul. But most people don't really have a good understanding of the soul. That is a cause of all kinds of problems, because the soul, or conscious living force, is who we really are. This series of essays covers the most important aspects of the science of the soul: who and what the soul is, where he comes from, where his real home is, and his eternal relationship with God.
