Hinduismo para la vida moderna

Hinduism is the oldest living spiritual tradition in the world, and the subtle presence of many of its concepts, techniques and knowledge in modern life is much more widespread than previously thought. Even so, in the West the Hindu worldview is often misunderstood, if not directly ignored, and it is paradoxical that this ignorance prevents us from seeing that, in the renewed modern secular spirituality, many essential features of the Hindu tradition emerge.

Naren Herrero shows us that this phenomenon that we call Hinduism is a valid conception of the divine and of the world that offers a multiplicity of ways so that each human being (without needing Indian blood) realizes his spiritual potential, without excluding the material satisfaction. Born and raised in the West, but educated in the framework of the spiritual philosophy of India, Naren could be considered a "Western Hindu." With unusual amenity he exposes us to high philosophical truths (nonviolence, the role of the teacher, the acceptance of death or the sanctity of the Sanskrit language), religious practices (festivals, mantras, rituals, food) and deepens the traditional symbology ( polytheism, the goddess, the swastika, the sacred cows, numerology). And above all, it transmits, in everyday and affordable words, guidelines for applying the timeless teachings of Hinduism in our modern life, in order to live it more fully.
