In the Himalayan Tradition of Yoga, the sage awakens within the student the divine flame called the Inner Teacher or Centre of Consciousness. This inner awakening is described with personal experiences that shed light on the mysteries of the guru-disciple relationship. Written as 108 sutras or brief aphorisms with extensive discussion and Sanskrit glossary, the text has a comprehensive western scientific commentary and bibliography that provide practical guidance for the new disciple about how to work with the Inner Teacher.
Drs. Martin and Marian Jerry, physician-scientist and clinical psychologist respectively, have studied and practiced Yoga since 1968 and were initiated into the Tradition of the Himalayan Masters by Swami Veda Bharati in 1982. They studied directly with the late H. H. Swami Rama for ten years in both North America and India. They are founding teachers of the Foothills Yoga Society in Calgary, Canada.

Print: $19.99 The Chariot of Sadhana is a refreshing and insightful alternative to the common mass approaches to Yoga. It is one of the most in depth and sophisticated explanations of Yoga Dharma today. It provides a clear and authentic presentation of traditional Yoga, including key teachings of the Yoga-Sutra, examined with logic, clarity and insight, faithful to the tradition, the meaning of the text and to an experiential application in sadhana today. The book is one of the best new in depth studies of Yoga as a spiritual practice, an exploration of consciousness and a means of taking us to the highest Self-realization."

Director, American Institute of Vedic Studies

Download: $7.00 Hardcover Print: $24.99 ABOUT THE BOOK: Nominated for multiple literary awards in 2005, Bridges has been called "poignant, sentimental yet down-to-earth, and just plain beautiful." Chesapeake is a sleepy place in June of 1953. Construction on the O’Bannion River Bridge is on schedule and almost half complete, but outside circumstances threaten to slow its progress to a crawl. The engineers assume a company bureaucrat will appear to solve the problem, but it’s seven-year-old Lindy who proves the unlikely heroine. This edition is not available from bookstores.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Sloan's family always found value in keeping the spirit of past generations alive through a tradition of storytelling. But times changed and the family scattered around the globe. The growing distances between generations provided the impetus for the author to preserve their tales. Yet the yearning for family connections is universal, and readers will find bridges to their own loved ones safely tucked inside these pages as well.
