Unknown Author

4.9/5 (18415 ratings)

Description:A new book, published by Loyola Marymount Press, combines a new interpretation of the environmentally themed Sanskrit Veda, The Prithivi Sukta, with beautiful photographs from around the world that illustrate and deepen the environmental and spiritual message of the verses. Prithivi is the sanskrit word for Earth, and these ancient verses give praise to medicinal plants, the inter-connectedness of humanity, and to the Earth herself. The Prithivi verses are a guide, a method of transcending the limitations of a materialistic culture and cultivating a deep relationship with the planet. The text inspires both global stewardship and an appreciation of our natural inter-relatedness through our mutual connection to the Earth. This meditation of text and image encourages an understanding of the interlocking, healing and resplendent essence of the divinity of nature. It reveals through the intrinsically beautiful images how sacred our planet truly is. "The amazing range of earth images — from mountains to children, butterflies to tree bark — fill the heart with awe and bring to life the beauty of this ancient scripture," says Laura Cornell, Ph.D., and Founder of the Green Yoga Association, "read this powerful book, and watch your consciousness be transformed." The new interpretation, by renowned scholars O.P. Dwivedi and Christopher Key Chapple, presents each verse in the original Sanskrit, along with the translation of that verse into English. This book will enhance a Yoga practice through the direct engagement with the teachings of the ancient masters of Yoga.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
