Spiritual Awakening through Mantra Practice
The eternal principle of mantra, the repetition of a sacred utterance given
by the guru at the time of initiation into the spiritual path, is truly a universal
practice bearing excellent results. It is crucial to spiritual life and endeavor. In
this discourse, the first in an ever-growing and on-going series of live recorded spiritual
talks, Babaji Bob Kindler provides nearly four hours of informational teachings on this
marvelous purificatory tool. Japa of the mantra aids in inner focus, but eventually leads
beyond the ability to concentrate, culminating in the facility to awaken the inner vision
of the Chosen Ideal of the meditator resulting in experiences of intense love, profound
wisdom, and increased devotion to God.

truisms unrivaled in the realm of religion and philosophy. In discourse number 2,
Babaji Bob Kindler meticulously explores the vast scope of enlightening material found

doctrine of karma, the boon and efficacy of a guru, the enigma of liberation from suffering
and ignorance, and the Eternal Principles of Atman and Brahman.

Fundamentals of Vedanta I
Fundamentals of Vedanta The emergence of Vedanta upon the world scene
today is of immense benefit to embodied beings suffering in the cruel traps of sensuality
and materialism. Like an underground river, Vedantic Truth, timeless and pervasive,
nourishes everything on the surface. To take advantage of such nourishment, however,
requires increased awareness of the fundamentals of this great philosophical system. This
first installment of Vedantic basics introduces several of its foundational principles,
such as how a spiritual aspirant gains qualification, how Reality is seen in all of Its
aspects, how Reality gets covered in the act of false superimposition, how detachment is
gained and utilized, the concepts of form and formlessness, how Truth is heard, contemplated
and realized and more.

Fundamentals of Vedanta II
Part two of this series explores more of the principles and teachings
that make up Vedanta Philosophy. In addition to revealing the powers of Ishvara, the
personal God, and the essential nature of the Nondual Brahman, this inspiring discourse
covers such wide and diverse topics as the Hindu caste system, the three types of karma,
the four fruits of life, and the various stages of the mind's spiritual evolution. Such
classic Vedantic teachings as the fourfold mind (antahkarana) and the fives sheaths of
human existence (adhara system) are also introduced and treated in terminology that is in
keeping with tradition yet easy of comprehension.

The Evolutes of Maya
The enigmatic, incomprehensible and inexorable presence of Maya cannot be
explained, or explained away. Its influence ceases only with the dissolution of the finite
mind and its limitations into the highest nondual experience, called Nirvikalpa Samadhi in
Vedanta. Along the road leading to such superlative experience beings must learn how to
cope with the inexplicable, which plagues them unmercifully amidst all the circuitous
pathways that riddle relative existence. This revealing discourse tells of the many dangers
of Maya as told by the ancient adepts, gathered into a definitive list by Babaji Bob Kindler
for the benefit of the avid aspirant desirous of Truth alone. How Maya deludes, how it helps
liberate, its modes and evolutes -- all are discussed at length in this informative and
life-saving testament.

Axioms of Advaita
After an in-depth study of Vedanta in all its aspects is undertaken and
achieved, it becomes clear why Swami Vivekananda called it the future religion of the
world. And nowhere is the validity of this statement seen to be more actual than in the
truths of Advaita, Vedanta's unique nondual facet. The doing away with false identification,
the death of ignorance in the human mind, the illusory nature of the human ego, the healthy
shock of perceiving the unreality of the phenomenal objective world, the dawning again of
the state of Absolute Freedom, the vision of pure, conscious Awareness - all based on and
in Advaita, nonduality -- is what is shared herein. Included is an enlightening fifteen
step meditation according to Advaita Vedanta, including its radical teaching on posture
and breathing.

Bhagavad Gita
In this 4 volume set of discourses spanning at least 3 years of classes
and covering all 18 chapters of the Bhagavad Gita, Babaji Bob Kindler, follows the
tradition of Sutradhara. The sutradhara is simultaneously the connecting thread running
through the verses of scripture and the one who makes the connection for the listener.
In this fashion, Babaji has highlighted verses in each chapter that are especially
significant teachings of the Blessed Lord, Sri Krishna, for this day and age. In his
own unique style, Babaji extracts the teachings of these verses and translates them
into systematic methods for removing obstacles to our spiritual growth, attaining
self-mastery, recognizing the traits of illumined beings, and more. Though some verses
receive more attention than others, all verses of the Gita are included in this series.
