Description
Read any good books lately? Vedic literature is rich in timeless content, and few epics have lasted the thousands of years that some of the Vedic epics have survived.Vedic epics combine the best of drama and unforgettable storytelling while still being steeped in deep wisdom at every turn. It is this powerful combination that continues to make them as relevant today as 5,000 years ago.Thom shares a couple of his favorites in this episode, and gives us a helping hand by recommending specific translations that will make more sense to those of us who are not Vedic scholars.And to help us even further, he suggests a couple of more contemporary books, both written by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi to help us deepen our understanding of how to lead a rich and fulfilling life.Suggested Reading:The Science of Being and the Art of Living by Maharishi Mahesh YogiMaharishi Mahesh Yogi on the Bhagavad Gita - a translation and commentary by Maharishi Mahesh YogiThe Mahabharata, translation by Ramesh MenonThe Ramayana, translation by Ramesh MenonLove and God by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Episode Highlights:[00:52] The Vedic Worldview Podcast[02:38] The Science of Being and Art of Living - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi[04:47] The Bhagavad Gita – Vyasa[08:01] Krishna's Enjoinment to Battle[10:33] The Mahabharata – Vyasa[14:52] Vyasa - A Great Sage[17:17] The Ramayana – Valmiki[20:02] Love and God - Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Useful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/info@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
