What is the secret of eros? What os the meaning of love? These questions have been asked since the days of Adan end Eve. Eastern and Western, secular and sacred traditions alike have tried to answer these questions conclusively, while succeeding only partially.
Every religious tradition hints at the sexuality of God and the soul. Yet these hints have either been ignored, considered allegorically, or misinterpreted as a licence for men and women to indulge the flesh in the name of spirituality. Rasa theology may be the answer to this perplexing issue. It is not a new theory, but the timeless truth of the soul's emotional potential. It is the deepest voice of India's spiritual heritage, the inner heart of Vedanta. The truth of rasa comes to us in this book addressing the necessity of our times - times of moral and spiritual bankruptcy, the heritage of the modern era. As we enter into postmodernism, we can only hope for something better, something spiritual. In this book, Swami B. V. Tripurari meets that hope with deep spiritual insight into just how bright our spiritual future can be.
