Book Description

About The Book

Puranas Reimagined: Attaining Enlightenment Through Samudra Manthan shares a new perspective of the popular folklore of Samudra Manthan cited in the Holy Scriptures. It draws an allegory between the religious folktale of the Daityas, the Devtas and the celestial gifts with inner sciences of spirituality. Each celestial gift obtained, such as Airawat, Kalpvriksha, Shankh, etc., in the tale, is considered as an amazing psychic power or Siddhi. The miraculous powers can be developed by an individual following the Ashthang Yoga or the eight-fold path of yoga. Further, following extensive research, the book highlights astounding anecdotes from the lives of revered Holy Saints who had engaged the said Siddhi in their life.

In the words of Galileo: "All truths are easy to understand, once they are discovered; the point is to discover them."

The book comprehends and shares a new dimension of the truth of the immortal tale.

Preface

I have always been intrigued by Holy Scriptures and the invisible forces in the cosmos. I truly believe that scriptures hold a vast reservoir of knowledge for us to tap into, to learn, to evolve and to experience higher levels of human consciousness. The wildly illogical elements of stories mentioned in the Holy Puranas make them unacceptable to a rational mind and compel one to seek hidden meanings behind the story and symbols used in them.

Just as we read a Panchtantra tale to children, we do not comprehend the story at a literal level, but using our intelligence and power of discrimination, we simply focus on the moral of the story. Similarly, even the Puranic stories also convey deep philosophical doctrines and cosmic truths. We simply need to catch them!

The book-Puranas Reimagined: Attaining Enlightenment Through Samudra Manthan-looks at the popular tale of Samudra Manthan included in the Bhagwad Purana and other Puranas with a new lens. It presents a fresh interpretation of the story with a Spiritual and Yogic point of view. It comprehends the story as an evolution of higher mental and spiritual faculties that are latent in every human being. The book draws a relationship between the traditional folklore and Yoga Siddhis mentioned by the great sage, Shri Patanjali.
