Customer Review:
In the Upanishads there are two selves. They are symbolized by two birds sitting on a tree branch. The one bird, the self with a small "s" eats. The other bird, the Self with a capital "S" observes.

from Diane Pub Co
Customer Review:
I don't doubt that many people buy this work because of the Kama Sutra's racy reputation. Despite the fact that Danielou is not shy about translating issues of same-sex intercourse, seduction of other men's wives, and such, the overall work here is of immense historical value.
First Dalielou... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

I wanted to read a copy of the Ramayana for a long time now, even though I was already told and was familiar with many of the stories from my parents. I am a Hindu, and was looking forward to read this.

Customer Review:
I picked up this book with pretty low expectations since I've read other retellings of classical stories which have either distorted them or were extremely pedestrian.
