Aesthetic Vedanta: The Sacred Path of Passionate.Love illuminates the classic Sanskrit poem, rasa lila -- the sacred love affair of the the Hindu deities Radha and Krishna. Interspersed with original poetry and renderings of the medieval verse of several Hindu mystics, this book reveals the means to access the spiritual reality of India's erotic mysticism. Aesthetic Vedanta speaks to us of a tradition that is practical and profoundly beautiful, replete with visualization, ritual, song and dance, both affirming and spiritualizing the erotic principle that lies within our souls.
