Vedas. Yoga. Guru. Soul. Karma. Reincarnation. Bhakti.

Now buzz words since their introduction to the Western context in the 20th century, these terms have a deep and rich understanding in India's history of spiritual knowledge. To teach the troubled humanity how to love God and receive eternal happiness, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada pioneered the propagation of this spiritual storehouse to the West.

In his seminal works on the Bhagavad-gita and the Srimad Bhagavatam, Srila Prabhupada offers solutions to the dilemmas of spirit and matter the greatest thinkers have grappled with since time immemorial. Take a read of articles by Srila Prabhupada and his disciples on some poignant spiritual topics:

• "People Must Know the Aim of Life."
• Do we live more than once?
• Radharani - The Feminine Side of God
• Do bad things happen to good people?
• Enlightened Compassion - Dealing with Catastrophe
• The Anatomy of the Self
• You Don't Need a Guru - or Do You?
