Description

Wisdom Stories of the Rishis Retold
edited and elucidated by Babaji Bob Kindler

Of all the relationships possible on earth, that rare and timely combination of noble perfection known as guru/shishya, spiritual teacher and sincere disciple, transcends them all.  And scarcely in the sweep of historical time passed has that most intimate of connections been so well-documented, defined, and explored as in the sweet and sacred friendship between Lord Vasishtha – consummate priest, rishi, friend, preceptor, and luminary – and the youthful and as yet unveiled Avatar of the Age, Sri Ramachandra.  Here, in these pages, ageless seer and exceptional young teenager enact the classic and symbolic dance of the destruction of ignorance from the aspiring human mind, exposed as it is to the many vagaries and vicissitudes of Maya – the worlds of name and form in time and space, based in causality.

In A Quintessential Yoga Vasishtha, Babaji Bob Kindler offers a concentrated selection of these astonishing stories from this ancient scripture, retold in a rich, contemporary style. The abstruse nature of Vasishtha’s teachings are clarified and explored, not only via expanded dialog, but also through detailed charts, or storyboards. Brace yourself. Immersed in these lucid tales, your consciousness is receiving  injections of nondual Truth.
