Many Path Many Truths :
A journey through world religions that have shaped the 21st  century humanity. 

Have you ever wondered why there is so much religious diversity in the world? How did this story of humanity begin and what ancient wisdom has been lost along the way? Can you believe in God and not be religious? Or simply put, why do human beings have a need to believe in something... anything?

This book is a journey through the genesis of faith, the evolution of ancient spiritual practices, the dawn of major world religions and an exploration of the emerging frontiers of New Age spirituality.

Along the way, we will find answers to some intriguing questions, such as why the Quran acknowledges Abraham, Moses, and Jesus as prophets. We will explore why most Buddhists do not believe in the existence of the soul and discover how Jesus’ birthday on December 25th was originally a pagan festival. Why does Hinduism contain the elements of monism, monotheism, polytheism, and pantheism, all in one faith? What is the relationship between ancient Vedic texts and quantum physics? Which gene makes us ‘religious’ beings and how might our future spirituality be redefined by New Age lifestyles? ...and many more.

Many Paths, Many Truths is a profound contemplative inquiry packaged as an easy read for anyone who desires to gain insight into life’s existential questions through the lens of the wisdom of world religions and spiritual philosophies. A treat for both novices and experts alike, whether you are seeking your own inner truths or researching systems of faith beyond your own, this book is a great place to start your journey.

Ayam :
Discover your beautiful self

In most ancient wisdom systems, maya refers to the illusion of the world we see around us, created by the complexity of attachments and ups and downs of our mundane human life. And they go on to say that through mindfulness and meditation practice, it is possible to break through this illusion, unveiling the true nature of our ‘self’ and ‘life’, unfolding the natural human expression of joy, peace, right human relationships and fulfillment. This book refers to it as finding your ‘ayam’ (aka ‘I am’) and aims to start you on this journey.

Ayam: Discover your beautiful self helps us craft a journey that is unique for each one of us. It brings us a collection of tools drawn from both ancient wisdom and modern science, in a clear, easy to learn way. The aim is to enhance our awareness of new possibilities, new ways of living, working, relating, and being in our lives.

Deftly distilled from his hands-on experience spanning over two decades as a meditator and meditation teacher, and his professional career as a global CEO and entrepreneur, Leo Rastogi offers practical tools, insights and wisdom to help us step off the treadmill of life into a more vibrant, fulfilling and nourishing way of living in this world. Sometimes, he simply weaves them in as charming personal anecdotes!

From the basics of mindfulness and meditation and the more subtle wisdom of ancient cultures to the emerging science in the field of neurobiology, this book takes us on an evolving journey through these practices. Step by step, we are offered the insights and tools we need to grow from where we are and to begin experiencing the wholeness of this mystery called ‘most beautiful self’.
