			<title>How To Choose Your Spiritual Guru? </title>
			<description><![CDATA[Choosing a wrong guru can seriously diminish one's chances of 
			salvation. Having trust in God is always helpful, but taking certain precautions 
			about one's own spiritual life is prudence, especially in a world where truth is not 
			what it seems to be. Spiritual journey is far more riskier and arduous than crossing 
			the Himalayas. Much depends upon whom you select as your guru and what is your equation 
			with him. There is no apparent advantage in going to a capable guru if he or she is too 
			busy to pay you any attention.  This articles helps you know what to look for and what 
			to avoid in selecting a spiritual guru, without emotion and confusion, using the faculties 
			of reason and common sense. ]]></description>

			<title>Atmabodha - Knowledge of Self By Adi Shankaracharya</title>
			<description><![CDATA[Knowledge of the Self (atmabodha) is one of the well 
				known works of Sri Adi Shankaracharya, written for the benefit of 
				those who have cultivated detachment and want to seek freedom from 
				ignorance and illusion. The monistic philosophy of Shankara, according 
				to which Brahman is the one and the only reality, is well reflected 
				in this scripture. According to Shankra the phenomenal world is 
				a mere super imposition in which we become entangled because of 
				our involvement with the sense objects. It is not through rituals 
				but through wisdom, one learns to discriminate the real from the 
				unreal and gains liberation. The unconditioned Self shines when 
				ignorance is destroyed. ]]></description>

			<title>Reflections On Maya , The Illusion Of Things</title>
			<description><![CDATA[According to many schools of Hinduism, the world is an illusion, 
			a  play of the supreme consciousness of God. It is a projection of things and forms 
			that are temporarily phenomenal and sustain the illusion of oneness and permanence. 
			The illusion of phenomenal world is created and sustained by stand alone objects 
			thrown together either by an act of randomness or through the deliberate choice of 
			conscious will. From the human body to a giant galaxy, each object in the material 
			universe is what it is because of the aggregation of things that sustain 
			its current state. ]]></description>

			<title>The Early Western Images Of Hinduism by European Historians</title>
			<description><![CDATA[There were three marked stages in the development of indological 
			studies: the period of curiosity and speculation, the period of appreciation and 
			vilification, and the period of archaeologists. Among the first Europeans 
			who tried to understand India's cultural past were the two eighteenth century

			grammar in Latin which remained unpublished, and Father Coeurdoux who established a 
			linguistic and ethnic kinship between the Brahmins and the descendants of Noah.1]]></description>
