Gifts from the Goddess and The Goddess and the Guru (Paperback)

 

This set includes the two definitive works on one of the great spiritual masters of our time: The Goddess and the Guru: A Spiritual Biography of Sri Amritananda Natha Saraswati (2017) and Gifts from the Goddess: Selected Words of Sri Amritananda Natha Saraswati (2019), both in paperback format. The Goddess and the Guru tells the life story of Dr. N. Prahlada Sastry, an Indian nuclear scientist who abandoned his career to build a Goddess temple in the jungle, and who became known as Guruji. Its companion title, Gifts from the Goddess, contains Guruji's two largest works: his 1994 opus, Understanding Sri Chakra Puja, and his stunning 1979 debut, Dasa Mahavidyas ("The Ten Great Wisdom Goddesses"), as well as other pieces of writing and lectures.
