This version of the Upanishads has been adapted and rewritten by Ethan to clarify and simplify the truth contained therein. The author, Ethan Walker, asks her about the meaning of life, the mysteries of existence, what to do about suffering, who or what we are, the way to happiness, how to be a whole and complete person, how to successfully navigate life and much more. She is personable, Poetry About Yoga accessible and clear in her revelations of the deepest secrets and mysteries of life. This is the same life force identified in Indian yogic practices and ayurvedic healing known as prana. This book is a journey into the life of a glowing white-hot incarnation of the Divine who walks among us now - a phenomenon that becomes available to us perhaps only once in 10,000 years. There is no difference now between us and those who have no religion, because we have no experience.
This book is an invitation to experience the ecstatic bliss of being. Death of the ego is the path to endless bliss! It is the substratum of all of existence and it is the bliss and innocence that shines like the sun in the center of our hearts. The Divine Mother’s innocence, love and compassion floats like a fragrant, gossamer, shining cloud just on top of this bubbling brew of inspired words. So we see this danger by studying the lives of great teachers like Mohammed and others. You cannot satisfy my curiosity to see a country by showing me a map; I must have actual experience. Experience the sweetness of the divine; the ecstasy of God's infinite love. It is a precious opportunity for the reader to unfold spiritually and swim in the ocean of cosmic love and light. Swim in the ocean of God’s love reveling in the feminine presence of God - the eternal Goddess - the creatrix of all beings. It is a great opportunity to sit in Amma’s presence because the profound light and love that radiates from her constantly will transform our minds and open our hearts without our having to do anything. It is the Philosopher's Stone that transforms the mind into the molten gold of light and love.
Step by step each point of contemplation untangles our mental and emotional blindness and leads the mind to the blissful ocean of awareness.

That is, if the mind can first concentrate upon an object, and then is able to continue in that concentration for a length of time, and then, by continued concentration, to dwell only on the internal part of the perception of which the object was the effect, everything comes under the control of such a mind. It can be likened to planting and growing a garden of tremendous joy in the soil of one’s own mind and heart. Love, bliss, joy and deep self-luminous happiness are but a few of the manifestations of our spiritual nature. In this book we will discuss simple ways that we can use to access our inner joy. It will be the solace of my death." - Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) German philosopher. Poetic meditations on the Divine Mother of the Universe. Conversations is a candid discussion with the Divine Mother of the Universe.

These three are called in Yoga, Shabda (sound), Artha (meaning), and Jnâna (knowledge). Metaphysical and transcendental knowledge comes to that man. One influential critic slightingly referred to Rabindranath as a 'pigeon-poet who sold his cooings in print for a rupee.' But Tagore's revenge was at hand; the whole Western world paid homage at his feet soon after he had translated into English his GITANJALI ('Song Offerings'). Father presented me with this fertile land, where he had already built a guest house and temple," Rabindranath told me. "I started my educational experiment here in 1901, with only ten boys. It is only the contemplative, witness-like study of objects that brings to us real enjoyment and happiness. "In the whole world there is no study so beneficial and so elevating as that of the Upanishads.
