The spiritual heritage of India has become a major part of Western thinking. This book describes the main themes of the Hindu, Buddhist, Jain and other spiritual traditions of India, and explores their points of contact with Western preoccupations, such as the interest in yoga, karma and Tantra, together with teachings of modern gurus. A reference section includes a guide to meditation techniques, a gazetteer of sacred pilgrimages, a glossary of specialist terms, and profiles of individual gods and goddesses.
