His current areas of writing are as follows:
Indian Philosophy Contemporary Hinduism (Sanatana Dharma) derives theoretical concepts mainly from the Bhagavad Gita, the Epics and Puranas, the Upanishads, and the teachings of the Bhakti Saints. In the midst of diverse philosophies and paths, including the emotional and the intellectual, our aim as spiritual seekers remains the same: to recognize the true relationship of our individual souls (jiva) with the Supreme Soul (Paramatma).
Because Hindus believe that God adores musical sounds, vibrations from musical instruments and vocal cords are often offered to him in places of worship and homes. In the Bhakti traditions, devotees use music as a means to reach God by forgetting themselves as they sing hymns, mantras, and the names of their favorite form of the Lord. Similarly, the non-dualist worshipper of music forgets oneself in music to remember nothing but musical sound.
