Your Mind’s Journey: The Moon and Her Celestial Mansions is a powerful guide to understanding the intimate relationship between the mind and the cosmos through the ancient science of Jyotiṣa. At the heart of this journey is the Moon, whose movement through the 27 nakṣatrās—lunar constellations of Vedic astrology—reveals the subtle architecture of thought, emotion, and karma. Each nakṣatrā acts as a doorway into the mind’s deeper patterns, illuminating how cosmic forces shape our inner world. Far more than an astrology manual, this book offers a transformational roadmap.

The contributors have dedicated their careers to exploring hagiographical materials, each applying their own methodological and theoretical interests to shed new light on the enduring story of Buddhism.

El universo es un organismo vivo. No tiene leyes, sino hábitos. Esa es la gran intuición de la cosmología budista. A ella se añade otra, que proviene del pensamiento védico y que hereda el sāṃkhya: la mente no es la conciencia. La naturaleza está hecha de la materia sutil de la mente, una mente extendida, que dialoga constantemente con una conciencia que lo permea todo, que no puede entenderse según las directrices del espacio y el tiempo. El cosmos experimenta procesos cíclicos de creación y disolución que se desarrollan en función de la evolución espiritual de los seres que lo habitan.
