By Swami Sivananada.

The Yoga Vedanta Dictionary forms one of the most valuable additions to an aspirant's library of spiritual books. Followers of Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj throughout the world, especially in the West, have frequently been requesting him for such a Dictionary as would serve them to understand better the Yoga Vedanta literature. This Dictionary fulfils that great need.

This is the only one of its kind published so far.

The particular usefulness of this book lies no so much in its use as a lexicon, but in its providing the aspirant a "refresher", a companion that would stimulate Vedantic ideas and thoughts, and a sort of Vedantic pick-me-up, as a glance through any page of the dictionary is bound to inspire sublime Vedantic though-currents. As the title clearly states, this is a Yoga Vedanta Dictionary and not a regular Sanskrit dictionary, and therefore the meaning given are explicitly meant to help spiritual aspirants understand the texts in which these words occur.
