 Santosh Krinsky has endeavoured to make Sri Aurobindos teachings relevant and readable to the very different audience today, without compromising the essence of this teaching. The Synthesis of Yoga in four volumes of which this current book is the second, focusing on The Yoga of Knowledge. He clearly explains Aurobindos vision of Yoga in the world today and the many-sided approach that is needed to make it work in our daily lives.
Readings in the Mother by Sri Aurobindo
Santosh Krinsky
Sri Aurobindo's book The Mother is a highly concentrated and powerful guide to spirituality and yoga. Consisting of just six chapters, it provides inspiration and direction of the highest order and for many it acts as a lifelong companion on the journey. The sixth chapter, which describes the Four Powers of the Mother is frequently called the Matri Upanishad and can rightfully take its place with those more ancient inspired texts. In Indian philosophy, the Mother represents shakti, the power and energy of creation.Santosh Krinsky has been studying the work of Sri Aurobindo for over 40 years. He brings his experience and insights to bear on the significance of this short, but significant book.
Tao Te Ching: A New English Version
Stephen Mitchell
Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living and one of the wonders of the world. In eighty-one brief chapters, the Tao Te Ching llods at the basic predicatment of being alive and gives advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit. This book is about wisdom in action. It teaches how wo work for the good with the efforless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao (the basic principle of the universe) and applies equally to good government and sexual love, to childrearing, business, and ecology.

The Tao Te Ching is the most widely traslated book in world literature, after the Bible. Yet the gemlike lucidity of the original has eluded most previous translations, and they have obscured some of its central ideas. Now the Tao Te ching has been rendered into English by the eminent scholar and traslator Stephen Mitchell. Mr. Mitchell's Dropping Ashes on the Buddha is a modern Zen classic, and his translations of Rilke and of the Book of Job have already been called definitive for our time.

Readings in Sri Aurobindo's The Synthesis of Yoga Volume 3: The Yoga of Divine Love
Santosh Krinsky
 Santosh Krinsky has endeavored to make Sri Aurobindos teachings relevant and readable to the very different audience today, without compromising the essence of his teachings. I do not think that any other writer in American has better represented Aurobindos teachings today than Santosh. This is a difficult task to be sure but one that he has been able to do consistently and with depth of thought. The reader is guided through short episodes that can constitute a simple yet direct immersion into the heart of Aurobindos teachings. Krinsky has approached The Synthesis of Yoga in four volumes of which this current book is the third, focusing on The Yoga of Divine Love. He clearly explains Aurobindos vision of Yoga in the world today and the many-sided approach that is needed to make it work in our daily lives. This helps the reader understand the depths of Yoga and how it can be used to make fundamental changes in our being and character that are more important and enduring than mere outer changes in our body.
Reading's in Sri Aurobindo's The Ideal of Human Unity
Santosh Krinsky
  If we observe closely, we can see and identify a slow, but steady growth of a new consciousness, a consciousness that transcends the egoistic bonds of self, family, tribe and community. This new consciousness sees a future for humanity that respects each individual and their social or religious background. This new consciousness works to bring about mutual benefit rather than egoistic fulfillment at the expense of others, and takes care of the needs of planetary health as a basis for long-term human survival.
