    Wisdom of the Ancient Sages: Mundaka Upanishad

    In Wisdom of the Ancient Sages, Swami Rama shares with the modern world the powerful and inspiring teachings of one of the worlds greatest spiritual texts: the Mundaka Upanishad. This beautiful translation and commentary affirms human nature as peaceful, creative, and transcendent. Its message will assist anyone who seeks to walk the path of personal and spiritual development.

    Excerpt from the book

    "The Upanishadic teachings are like flowers gathered from the garden of the limitless. The seers, the teachers of the Upanishads, strung a thread through these flowers, so that each teaching become a garland. Today's world is passing through a serious crisis: stress, unhappiness, and diseases are increasing.

    Mankind had forgotten the ancient landmark of its noble history. I pray that modern men and women become aware that life has two aspects-within and without. Without construction this bridge of understanding-between within and without, between ancient and modern-real happiness, peace and bliss are unattainable."

    About Swami Rama

    One of the greatest adepts, teachers, writers, and humanitarians of the 20th century, Swami Rama (1925–1996) is the founder of the Himalayan Institute. Born in northern India, he was raised from early childhood by the Himalayan sage, Bengali Baba. Under the guidance of his master, he traveled from monastery to monastery and studied with a variety of Himalayan saints and sages, including his grandmaster, who was living in a remote region of Tibet.

    In addition to this intense spiritual training, Swami Rama received higher education in both India and Europe. From 1949 to 1952, he held the prestigious position of Shankaracharya of Karvirpitham in South India. Thereafter, he returned to his master to receive further training at his cave monastery, and finally, in 1969, came to the United States, where he founded the Himalayan Institute.

    His best-known work, Living with the Himalayan Masters, reveals the many facets of this singular adept and demonstrates his embodiment of the living tradition of the East.

    This book lead me to HI IN 2002

    I purchased this book while taking a yoga class at the Ganesh Temple in Flushing. They had it for sale in their bookshop and store.
    6 months later I was at HI. My wonderful late son had borrowed it when he was just 16. He had always planned to return and hoped to use both his extensive travel, computer experience and accounting to help out HI. After his sudden passing in 2021, my daughter brought me the well read book back with his things…I still have it, but with my vision rapidly failing, I may have to get the kindle to listen to it.
