Reading Sanskrit Texts in Awareness is the fourth book in the Wisdom in Awareness - Essays series. It focuses on Sanskrit texts, especially the Bhagavad Gita, while also touching related shastras, key terms, and selected passages from wider Sanskrit literature.
The book is not a grammar manual or an academic edition. It is a reader’s companion for approaching Sanskrit wisdom with attention, humility, and inquiry, so that words such as atma, dharma, yoga, jnana, yagnya, prakriti, and ahamkar are not reduced to shallow translations.
What you will find inside#
- Reading the Gita: questions in the Bhagavad Gita and selected chapter reflections on Sankhya Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga, and Moksha.
- Key Sanskrit terms: essays on atma, dharma, yoga, knowledge, yagnya, prakriti, and ahamkar.
- Living the teachings: reflections on Krishna, Arjuna, paths, divine qualities, and the practical tension between doctrine and life.
- Related Sanskrit sources: notes connected with Durga Saptashati, Chamakam, Ayurveda passages, and other Sanskrit wisdom traditions.
This volume supports readers who want to approach Sanskrit texts not merely as scripture, quotation, or ritual language, but as living material for inner clarity.
