By Swami Dayananda Saraswati Contemporary teacher of Vedanta and a scholar in Sanskrit in the tradition of Sankara. I really liked this book for it's simplicity and precise explanations to existential teachings.

By Eknath Easwaran The Bhagavad Gita opens, dramatically, on a battlefield. Prince Arjuna is on the brink of an apocalyptic war that he doesn’t want to fight – and he turns in anguish to his spiritual guide, Sri Krishna, for answers to the fundamental questions of life. Arjuna’s struggle is profoundly modern. Easwaran’s genius is to show us that “the battlefield is a perfect backdrop, but the Gita’s subject is the war within, the struggle for self-mastery that every human being must wage.”

By Rod Stryker According to ancient Yogic tradition, your soul has four distinct desires: • The desire for purpose, the drive to become who you are meant to be • The desire for the means (money, security, health) to prosper in this world • The desire for pleasures like intimacy, beauty, and love • The desire for spiritual fulfillment and lasting freedom

By Sarma Melngailis I used these book in my "raw food" phase. It lasted 3 months and I love incorporating her recipes into my cooking now - or more food preparation ;) She explains a lot her journey and what to look out for, nutrient wise, when switching to a raw food diet. The recipes are ALL divine!
