Release of my debut book 'Sankarayanam: The Journey of Sankara'

[Subramanian C / Subbu's corner]

Namaste to all,

Gives me immense pleasure to let you all know that my debut book 'Sankarayanam: The Journey of Sankara' has been released and is now available on Amazon (https://amzn.in/d/9OI707k). Though we have many books on the Acharya, this book is expected to be unique in its simple story telling approach, treatment of various topics in a relatively unbiased way, an FAQ section attempted to address some of the questions in the minds of the contemporary generation, elaborate chapters on the theistic traditions that existed during Acharya's time; his association with Yoga, Tantra; his elaborate parampara; map of his Digvijaya travels; etc.

The book has been blessed with a Foreword by my Guru Gauri Mahulikar ji and with testimonials from Swami Advayanand ji of Chinmaya Mission, Swami Sakshatkritanandji of Arsha Vidya Gurukulam, Dr. Padma Subrahmanyam and Sri Dushyanth Sridhar.

This is published under the INDICA label.

I would urge all great scholars here to read the book and give their feedback/ review on the same. This will help me improve things for my next venture :)

Please also share this in your networks so that this reaches more people.

Regards,
Subramanian Chidambaran

“Agni, showerer (of benefits), you who are the Lord, you alone among the gods pervade all living beings; and you give the sacrificer all the objects (phalāni) for which he prays

 “Meet together, talk together, let your minds apprehend alike; in like manner as the ancient gods concurring accepted their portion of the sacrifice.”

“Common be the prayer of these (assembled worshippers), common be the acquisition, common the purpose, associated be the desire. I repeat for you a common prayer, I offer for you with a common oblation.”

“Common, (worshippers), be your intention; common be (the wishes of) your hearts; common be your thoughts, so that there may be thorough union among you.”
