Kernel of Vedic Truth

I completed three more books covering the span of Post Vedic, Pre Upanishadic eras.

Kernel of Vedic Truth explores the history and philosophy of Vedic thought from the days the Gods left the planet. The book references Bhagavata Purana and Sandilya's Bhakti Sutra providing a genuine insight into questions around the birth of this universe, our role on this planet and thereafter, oneness of god in everything and the true yoga of meditation and devotion. The ancient seers were extremely earnest in their desire for the truth and provided an eternal covenant that lay concealed in the realms of the sacred lore of the Vedas, Puranas and Sutras. The book follows the style of a ballad - stanzas never exceeding four lines. The book is a story within a story within another. The themes are short and meaningful. As the contents unfold, the central theme becomes evident providing a genuine, simple translation of what the forepersons saw, witnessed, practiced, underwent, and left for us a means to continue that wonderful, spiritual experience.  Kernel of Vedic Truth is strictly a philosophy centered on Krishna, Siva, Rama, Rishabha, Kapil, Bharata, Maitreya.

Cause Divine a prequel to "Ballad Divine", explores the history of human thought from when it endeavored to undermine the first divine cause. More than two thousand years back, the hymns written for a pantheon of Vedic gods slowly began to evolve into a redefined philosophy of one supreme god who was benign and universal. While the older manuscripts led the transition from the many Vedic gods to Brahma, the supreme, the newer scriptures focused on the single monistic god.

The original texts have many aphorisms, metaphors and simile. In Cause Divine, excerpts have been taken from Brahma Sutra, Rig-Veda, Katha Upanishad, Taittiriya Upanishad, Svetasvatara, Kena and Mundaka Upanishads on the subject of first cause. The reader may initially feel a little overwhelmed and swamped with alien words and texts. With repetition and reinforcement, the concepts enrich the readers understanding and comprehension. All this without bogging the reader into obscurity.

The translations presented in Cause Divine are as direct to the original manuscripts as possible and transliterated words and sentences accompany the stanzas as they unfold.

Insight Divine provides deep insight into the workings of Vedic and Celtic Natal Astrology.

Insight Divine is an easy to follow course in Vedic and Celtic Astrology that provides a solid foundation for anyone interested in the myth, the art and the technology of this divine mathematical system the ancients had devised. Insight Divine is natal astrology, giving you insights about you as a person and your charter on this planet. While you have already unraveled some portions of it and have swung between gain and loss, pleasure and pain, Insight Divine can help you overcome some of the future hurdles.

Stanza by stanza, the book leads you into a practical application on which Jotiz.Com is founded. Jotiz is a PHP framework that lets you implement a dynamic astrology website with all computations, and the bells and whistles. Insight Divine provides you both, the technology means and practical insights into astrology to become an expert quickly. The code in the book lets you create and analyze different astrological charts, tree sign readings and Dasas. It lets you use the inherent features of PHP to generate beautiful geometrical charts.
