Sacred Letters: Sanskrit, Yoga, and Awakening the Divine by Michael David Sowder

Michael David Sowder uses letters of the Sanskrit alphabet as starting points for meditation, personal narrative and philosophical inquiry. The reflections are rooted in a devotional Tantric Śaiva-Śākta perspective and include connections with other mystical traditions.

This is a contemplative exploration of language and spiritual life, not a complete Sanskrit grammar or a promise that particular sounds produce supernatural effects.
