    Five Seats of Power (eBook, ePUB)
    In Five Seats of Power, Raghu Ananthanarayanan uses insights from the Yoga Shastra and the Mahabharata to offer principles and practices to enable behavioural transformation. Transformation that, in turn, will ignite an individual's natural genius. He presents each of the five Pandavas - Yudhishthira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula and Sahadeva - as an archetype of a particular kind of power: of order and stability, passion and action, and curiosity and knowledge, among others. Drawing on each of these archetypal energies, he explores the functional and dysfunctional aspects of the use of power. He examines how, in order to mobilize one's heroic potential, a person must celebrate their desirable qualities, while resolving the dark and compulsive energies within themselves.The book also includes interviews with visionary business leaders, such as N.R. Narayana Murthy and S. Ramadorai, that exemplify the lessons gathered from analysing the heroes from the Mahabharata. This is an invaluable guide to becoming the best you can be.

    Mahabharata: The Great War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 41min
    The gods knew that the decisive moment that would end the royal rivalry had arrived. They watched in dismay as the inevitable end of a grand era fast approached, yet hopeful that in the end dharma would stand triumphant. Would the stalwarts Bhishma and Drona survive to see the end? And what of Karna? Where would his loyalties lie? With his savior Duryodhana or with his true brothers the Pandavas?

    Love, Pride, Virtue, and Fate , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 221min
    You might know that Greek gods interfered on both sides of the Trojan War, but did you know that Hindu gods fought alongside both the Pandavas and Kauravas in the Mahabharata? In the same way the ancient Egyptians worshiped Ra above all else, did you know that the monkey-god, Hanuman, gained his wisdom from the sun? Did you know that Krishna and Hercules are often linked to a past that includes Alexander the Great's conquests? And just as Noah had his ark, one of Lord Vishnu's avatars had a similar tale for Hinduism. All of us share the same stories because the things that unite us are far greater than the things that divide us.I wrote this book because I wanted my loved ones to hear about Rama and Krishna and Saraswati as they also learned of Thor and Hercules, of Horus and Ra, of Noah, and Moses. In these 25 tales, you will be immersed in Hinduism in a way that highlights the traits I found most compelling in my research - tales of love, pride, virtue, and fate. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Karna's Wife: The Outcast's Queen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 789min
    Karna's Wife: The Outcast's Queen tells the extraordinary story of Karna, the unsung hero of the Mahabharata, through the eyes of his wife, Uruvi, bringing his story to the listener from a unique perspective. An accomplished Kshatriya princess who falls in love with and dares to choose the sutaputra over Arjun, Uruvi must come to terms with the social implications of her marriage and learn to use her love and intelligence to be accepted by Karna and his family. Though she becomes his mainstay, counselling and guiding him, his blind allegiance to Duryodhana is beyond her power to change. The story of Uruvi and Karna unfolds against the backdrop of the struggle between the Pandavas and the Kauravas. As events build up leading to the great war of the Mahabharata, Uruvi is a witness to the twists and turns of Karna's fate and how it is inextricably linked to divine design. A splendid saga from the pages of the Mahabharata, Karna's Wife: The Outcast's Queen brings its characters alive in all their majesty. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shaheen Khan.

    The Bhagavad Gita , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 182min
    The Bhagavad Gita, often referred to as the Gita, is a 700-verse Hindu scripture in Sanskrit that is part of the Hindu epic Mahabharata.The Gita is set in a narrative framework of a dialogue between Pandava prince Arjuna and his guide and charioteer Krishna. At the start of the Dharma Yudhha (righteous war) between Pandavas and Kauravas, Arjuna is filled with moral dilemma and despair about the violence and death the war will cause. He wonders if he should renounce and seeks Krishna's counsel, whose answers and discourse constitute The Bhagadvad Gita. Krishna counsels Arjuna to "fulfill his Kshatriya (warrior) duty to uphold the Dharma" through "selfless action". The Krishna-Arjuna dialogue cover a broad range of spiritual topics, touching upon ethical dilemmas and philosophical issues that go far beyond the war Arjuna faces.The Bhagavad Gita presents a synthesis of Hindu ideas about dharma, theistic bhakti, and the yogic paths to moksha. The synthesis presents four paths to spirituality - jnana, bhakti, karma, and raja yogas. These incorporate ideas from the Samkhya-Yoga and Vedanta philosophies. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Mahabharata - Die Große Erzählung von den Bharatas
    Im Zentrum des großen altindischen Epos "Mahabharata" steht, ähnlich wie in der homerischen "Ilias", ein schrecklicher Bruderkrieg im Geschlecht der Bharatas, nämlich der Kampf der Kauravas mit den Pandavas auf dem Schlachtfeld von Kurukshetra (nördlich von Delhi). Wahrscheinlich handelt es sich im Kern um ein historisches Geschehen, das wir aber politisch-historisch nicht einordnen können. Es bildet auch den Hintergrund für die "Bhagavad Gita", den berühmten Einzeltext aus dem sechsten von achtzehn Büchern des "Mahabharata", der von Michael von Brück in dieser Reihe schon separat herausgegeben wurde. In diese Haupterzählung des großen Krieges sind Hunderte von Nebengeschichten eingebaut, in denen alle im Hinduismus wichtigen Themen angesprochen werden. Deshalb gilt das "Mahabharata" zu Recht als einer der zentralen Texte des Hinduismus.Angesichts des enormen Umfangs des Gesamtwerkes stellt sich die Frage nach einer sinnvollen Auswahl der zu übersetzenden und zu kommentierenden Texte. Georg von Simson hat in erster Linie Partien berücksichtigt, die den religiösen Gehalt und Hintergrund des Epos illustrieren: alte Mythen, vedische Rituale, Pilgerfahrten mit ihrer Beschreibung heiliger Orte und den sich daran knüpfenden Legenden, Erzählungen von den Teilinkarnationen der Götter und Dämonen, Zauber und Wunder, Moral- und Erlösungslehre, Philosophie und Seelenlehre. Da alle nicht übersetzten Texte in knappen Inhaltsangaben zusammengefaßt werden, ist eine fortlaufende Lektüre des Gesamtwerks möglich.
