A Hindu Astrological Pilgrimage into the Life and Moksha of Sri Ramana Maharshi Sri Ramana Maharshi's Moksha is a new interdisciplinary Hindu astrological work in the spiritual spheres of Dharma and Moksha - exemplified through the life and Moksha of Sri Ramana Maharshi. The book throws new light on the nature of Moksha, the necessary and sufficient conditions for its occurrence, and also on the very process of the Maharshi's Moksha itself. Astrologers and seekers alike travelling on diverse paths will find in this book astonishing new insights, which will enable them to see 'order', for the first time, in the field of their enigmatic spiritual lives; a field wherein they would have seen previously no definitive pattern of spiritual destiny at all - but only a seething confusion of disillusionment and belied hopes. The author's unwavering devotion to the teachings of his four Spiritual Masters: Sri Ramana Maharshi, Sri Sri Bhagavan, Sri J. Krishnamurti and Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, has certainly imbued the work with a spiritual intensity that is devoid of all narrowness.

Arthur Osborne has packed into this small volume all of the essential information relating to the life and teachings of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950). The extraordinary teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi continue to bless the lives of countless seeking souls, and his life fills us with wonder. As a teenager-hardly seventeen-he realized the Self through a spontaneous act of Self-enquiry without conscious effort or special training imparted by a teacher. He left his home (at Madurai) in 1896 and came to Arunachala (Tiruvannamalai), where he lived as an all-renouncing sage in a state of continuous Self-realization for fifty-four years-until his mahanirvana in 1950. The author includes in this volume instructions given by Sri Ramana to early devotees, such as Sivaprakasam Pillai, Frank Humphreys, Kavyakanta, Natesa Mudaliar, and others, as well as the experiences of Paul Brunton and other later devotees. Sri Maharshi's central message is that Self-knowledge is not something to be acquired afresh. It is only becoming aware of one's own natural state of Pure Being, through Self-enquiry. Arthur Osborne (1906-1970) was an ardent devotee of Sri Ramana Maharshi and particularly well known as founder-editor of The Mountain Path, the spiritual journal of Sri Ramanasramam. After completing his studies at Oxford, he moved first to Poland, then to Bangkok, where he lectured at Chulalonghorn University and through a friend learnt about French metaphysician Ren Gunon, whose works dealt comprehensively with Hindu metaphysics, eventually translating into English his Crisis of the Modern World. He later spent four years as a prisoner of war of the Japanese before being united with his family, who were waiting at Sri Ramanasramam, Tiruvannamalai. He spent the remainder of his life there, writing about Sri Ramana and related subjects. He died in 1970, his body much weakened by the effect of his years in the concentration camp.

Bridging the gulf between the nascent world of J. Krishnamurti's self-Knowing and the ancient world of Self-Realization. Self-Realization is far better known than self-Knowing. Two renowned Advaitic masters of the last century, Sri Ramana Maharshi and Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, had created worldwide awareness of this ancient Advaitic tradition going back thousands of years, all the way to Adi Sankaracharya and the Upanishadic sages. By contrast, self-Knowing has been the lesser known as it has, by and large, remained nestled within the writings of the master, Sri J. Krishnamurti. Starting with the principles of self-Knowing laid down by J. Krishnamurti, the author systematically unfolds a meditative process that is free of the contamination by the self. Defining fundamentals such as self and what is, and going on to the ensuing theme of 'the identification, observation and understanding of the self, ' he arrives at 'the calming and silencing of the self '. It is here that the illusory nature of the self begins to shine. Without supportive meditations and intense selfless interest, one cannot come even this far. Deviating unambiguously, at a certain point, from J. Krishnamurti's line of exposition, the author invokes 'the impossible to ignore' Atma, and in this way leads us to the Advaitic climax of Tat Tvam Asi. In essence, he convinces us that self-Knowing is not only absolutely necessary but also that, without self-Knowing, the entire world of Self-Realization may be poised on shaky ground. This work is intended for serious seekers. The contents are drawn from the teachings imparted by the author at 'Tat Tvam Asi' International, seven-day residential retreat in 2016. They also constitute the textual material for an on-line course in Self-Realization through self-Knowing. Each of its seven chapters throbs with the vitality of a bold new enquiry, which takes the form of questions and answers. A former research scientist, Sankara Bhagavadpada received his PhD in theoretical nuclear physics from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai in 1980. He continues to teach Vedic Astrology and has been teaching Atmajnana (self-Knowing leading to Self-Realization) in India, USA and several South American countries.

This work contains almost everything written by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, his inspired compositions, and a number of translations from ancient Advaitic texts, representing the essence of his teachings. They fall into two categories-those which exemplify the path of surrender through love and devotion to the Divine, and those which are more doctrinal. The first group included the Five Hymns to Sri Arunachala, of which the first poem, The Marital Garland of Letters, "is among the most profound and moving poems in any language" and expressses the attitude of the soul aspiring for union with God. Sri Bhagavan has affirmed that seekers who study these works are certain to attain the Bliss of Liberation.
