LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHER

Dear Friends, For over twenty-five years, Mandala Publishing and Earth Aware Editions have produced quality publications that inspire self-development, emphasize the importance of pursuing a balanced, spiritual lifestyle, and encourage caring for the environment to protect it for generations to come. In an increasingly materialistic era, the importance of awakening to the full range of our spiritual and environmental challenges has grown. As most media and some world leaders continue to impart negativity and exacerbate the world’s problems, we at Mandala Earth are even more compelled to offer our readers and supporters hope, timeless wisdom, and positive tools for change. We believe in an intrinsic connection between spiritual values and environmental concerns. None of us can live a spiritual life without walking lightly and consciously in our material world. The Earth is our mother, and we feel a resonance with the Mandala Earth community to better express and act on this. Thus, we are expanding our spiritual and environmental books to provide accessibility to a wider audience, especially through our growing mind, body, and spirit line. Most of all, we seek to inspire our readers to live healthier, more environmentally friendly, and more conscious lifestyles. Our offerings will continue to include titles on music, art, yoga, philosophy, health, environmental activism, and education, as well as tools for personal growth. When we each effect positive change in ourselves, we know that we begin to influence the world at large, one person at a time. Please take time to explore our new catalog, which reflects our values and our commitment to you, our readers. We hope you find it uplifting and thought-provoking. With gratitude and in service, Raoul Goff

THE BEATLES IN INDIA PHOTOGRAPHY AND TEXT BY PAUL SALTZMAN FOREWORD BY PATTIE BOYD PREFACE BY TIM B. WRIDE AFTERWORD BY DONOVAN LEITCH

In 1968, the Beatles went to Rishikesh, India, studied transcendental meditation, and wrote music. These intimate photos are the only record of their time at this sacred retreat.

This new edition of The Beatles in India brings intimate images of the group, taken at an ashram in Rishikesh, India, to a wider audience than ever before and commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the famous trip. No photographers or press were allowed at Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram in the foothills of the Himalayas, but the Beatles had no objection to fellow visitor Paul Saltzman freely snapping pictures during their time there. This unprecedented access resulted in an extensive collection of intimate photos of the world’s most beloved rock band during one of their most serene and productive periods—and only two years before the official dissolution of the group. Containing a wide-ranging narrative by Saltzman—about everything from the story of how “Dear Prudence” came to be to George Harrison’s description of the first time he picked up a sitar—this unique and exclusive exploration of one of the Beatles’ tenderest and most bittersweet periods is a must-have for all fans of the legendary rock group.

TREES

Between Earth and Heaven PHOTOGRAPHY BY ART WOLFE TEXT BY GREGORY McNAMEE INTRODUCTION BY WADE DAVIS

Art Wolfe’s immersive photos capture the wonder humans have felt about FINAL COVER TO BE REVEALED

trees for millennia.

From the biblical Tree of Life to the Native American Tree of Peace, trees have played an archetypal role in human culture and spirituality since time immemorial. An integral part of a variety of faiths—from Buddhism and Hinduism to Native American and aboriginal religions—trees were venerated long before any written historical records existed. Through the vivid images of legendary photographer Art Wolfe, Trees focuses on both individual specimens and entire forests with traditional and cultural significance to communities of people and offers a sweeping yet intimate look at the arboreal world that spans six continents. The text by Gregory McNamee presents a diverse account of the legends, literary works, and conservation efforts that convey the long-standing symbiosis between trees and humans, and Wolfe shares his personal views in brief photographer’s notes.

YOGA A Guide to the Teachings and Practices BY DAVID FRAWLEY

BY JEFFREY ARMSTRONG

Beyond the physical practice, yoga is an ancient, sacred tradition of conscious living and higher awareness. This holistic practice encompasses physical health and well-being, psychological and emotional harmony, and general balance in life. More importantly, yoga is a spiritual quest to know the inner truth of the universe: the Divine, God, the Absolute, or any other name one may use to refer to this highest value. This compelling introduction provides the essential tools readers need to embark on a spiritual quest to deepen their yoga practice.

In this compelling and in-depth introduction to the ancient Hindu concept of karma, spiritual teacher and award-winning author Jeffrey Armstrong explores reincarnation, the deeper mysteries of the soul, the laws of nature, and the ways in which cause and effect influence our lives. Moving beyond Western perceptions of science and luck, Armstrong explores the mystical balance of the universe. These long-secret laws of karma, excavated from the ancient wisdom of India, offer a means to deepen one’s spiritual vision and reveal the profoundly interconnected nature of all that exists.

ll of us die, and most of us are called upon to support loved ones or friends in dying or in grieving a death.

Can one's end of life journey be a time of completion and even growth? Dying Gracefully views life as a pilgrimage culminating in the Great Transition at death. Drawing on insights from the ancient sages of India as well as modern hospice experiences, the author explores a spiritual art of dying in which death is the last and most powerful rite of passage.

THE SITA’S FIRE TRILOGY A truly original reimagining of the classic Indian epic the Ramayana, told primarily through the eyes of the women behind the throne, the Sita’s Fire Trilogy reveals an entirely new perspective on an ancient story. Set in a world of kings and queens, celestial battles, invisible foes, and family rivalries, this epic tale forges legends in the fires of betrayal and prophecy.

SHADOWS OF THE SUN DYNASTY

The Sita’s Fire Trilogy: Book One

BY VRINDA SHETH ILLUSTRATIONS BY ANNA JOHANSSON

Welcome to the royal city of Ayodhya, a realm ruled by the Sun dynasty, where peace reigns among the citizens while discord simmers behind the palace walls. A prophecy predicts that a son of the Sun dynasty will slay the immortal Ravana and defeat his demon army—but how will a mere human succeed where all the gods have failed? Meanwhile, Ayodhya’s emperor is torn between his own needs and the needs of the empire. His rebellious third wife, raised as a warrior, is haunted by her past. A defiant servant, stigmatized by her deformity, is willing to destroy the empire to achieve her own aims. A prince, unaware of his own divine origin, falls in love with a princess so extraordinary even the all-seeing sages cannot fathom her destiny. Shape-shifting blood-drinkers from the celestial realm fill the forests around the city, and the time of prophecy is drawing near—but will the blessings of the gods be enough to fend off the darkness growing in the heart of Ayodhya?

CONTACT YOGA The Seven Points of Connection & Relationship

YOGA AND VEGETARIANISM The Diet of Enlightenment

BY TARA LYNDA GUBER & ANODEA JUDITH

BY SHARON GANNON

BY JANICE GATES

Contact Yoga explores that mysterious and dynamic edge where two people connect: physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Tara Lynda Guber and Anodea Judith offer valuable insight into the dynamics of all loving relationships, using poses designed for two participants that bridge the seven points of contact.

According to Sharon Gannon, the single most important part of your yoga practice is the strict adherence to a vegetarian diet—a diet free of needless cruelty, harm, and injustice. Gannon offers truth and wisdom from a tradition of spiritual practice thousands of years old and explains how to apply these practices to our modern lifestyles.

Yogini is created by women, for not only women but all who have a passion for yoga as a path and a way of life. It offers inspiration and a fresh perspective for everyone’s yoga or spiritual practice.

$14.95 Paperback 5.5 × 7.5 144 pages ISBN: 978-1-60109-021-8 If you preface your asana practice with the intention to resolve past relationships, then, while you are in each asana, allow the experience to help you remember those past relationships. If pain, doubt, or tightness arise, give silent blessings to the others in your life. The following descriptions might help you to reflect on the power of asana practice to heal relationships by resolving them into love, forgiveness, and blessing while on the mat.

2nd chakra: SWaDhIShThaNa (her Favorite Standing Place) Forward bends Karmic relationships: Creative, artistic, romantic, and sexual partners

y

ou can purify your creative/sexual relationships by letting go of anger, blame, and resentment. Through practice, you will come to realize that the way others treat you is coming from how you have treated others in your past. Forward bending takes you into your past with an opportunity to reflect and heal through letting go of resentful feelings you may be holding against past partners.

1st chakra: mulaDhaRa (Root Place) Standing Poses Karmic relationships: Mother Earth, nature, parents, home, job, money, boss, workplace

The practice of forward bending develops creativity and removes sorrow and envy.

y

our spiritual journey begins with acknowledging your physicality through devotion to the Great Goddess, Mother Nature. If you cannot be at peace with your parents and feel contentment with your body, home, and job, you won’t be able to evolve. You purify the foundation by seeing all of life as sacred. Your connection to the Earth must be based in steadiness and joy, not only for yourself, but also for the whole world and all beings.

3rd chakra: maNIPuRa (Jewel in the city) Twists Karmic relationships: Others you have hurt (especially focus on animals you may have eaten or caused to be harmed)

The practice of standing poses develops stability and removes fear.

T

wisting asanas provide a great opportunity to reflect upon the food you have eaten and the other animal beings you may have harmed in the process. Acknowledge your unwitting selfishness and ask for forgiveness. Don’t feel guilty. What you have already done in your past is done; you cannot change that, but you can move forward in a new and more compassionate way, starting now. Realize that when you hurt others, it is coming from a lack of self-confidence. This practice provides the means to remedy that.

The practice of twists develops confidence and removes anger. appendix 3: Yoga on the Mat

SWAMI IN A STRANGE LAND

How Krishna Came to the West

NEW FORMAT

BY JOSHUA M. GREENE

In 1965, a 70-year-old man—soon to be known as Prabhupada— set sail from India to America with a few books in his bag, pennies in his pockets, and a message of love in his heart. He landed in New York at the peak of the revolutionary counterculture movement of the ’60s and went on to spark a global spiritual renaissance that led to the creation of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which has changed millions of lives. Carefully researched, skillfully crafted, and extraordinarily intimate, this narrative follows Prabhupada as he rises from an anonymous monk to a world-renowned spiritual leader, inspiring icons such as George Harrison and Allen Ginsberg.

rahma quickly returned to the cave. He carried the

sleeping children and calves to

the bank of the Yamuna. The children woke up alongside their calves. It was as if no time had passed at all. “Krishna,” the children cried, “you found our calves! Thank you. Well, come on then. Let’s finish our lunch.” And so they did. Afterward, they all returned home where the cowherd men and women were waiting for them. The mystery of the stolen calves happened when Krishna was five years old. Soon he reached his sixth birthday and had more adventures—so wonderful to tell, they are worth telling another time, in another book.

My Music, My Life RAVI SHANKAR

RAVI SHANKAR

riginally released during the zenith of the music scene in the sixties, My Music, My Life has been updated with stunning contemporary photographs, a new foreword by Philip Glass and a new chapter from Ravi Shankar on his perspective today. My Music, My Life chronicles the extraordinary career of the man who may be India’s best-known musician and one of the greatest sitar players of all time. Ravi Shankar has been performing throughout the world for more than six decades. Through a close mentoring relationship with Beatle George Harrison in the sixties, Shankar expanded his reach beyond that of any typical classical musician. He performed at Woodstock in 1969 and helped to organize the legendary Concert for Bangladesh in 1971.

Foreword by Philip Glass

Introduction by Yehudi Menuhin

In his own words, Shankar describes his transformation from a young traveling dancer to a Grammy Award-winning, internationally recognized musician. An autobiography, a history of Indian classical music and a manual on how to play the sitar, this book is as much about music as a lifestyle as it is about music as an art.
