Shiva Sutra - English

About This Book

Shiva Sutra (English) by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is Gurudev’s commentary on the ancient Kashmir Shaivite text — one of the most penetrating spiritual books available to buy online in India for the serious seeker of Indian philosophy. The Shiva Sutras, revealed to the sage Vasugupta, map the journey from ordinary consciousness to the direct recognition of one’s own divine nature.

Gurudev’s commentary brings to these sutras the ease of someone for whom the knowledge is not learned but lived — making the most esoteric Shaivite philosophy feel immediately relevant to the contemporary Indian meditator and Art of Living practitioner.
