Prince Rāma returns from his travels and stops eating. The sage Vasiṣṭha is called to counsel him. From that hush rose the Yoga Vāsiṣṭha — one of India's longest, deepest meditations on consciousness.

In the oldest layer of the tradition, the woman was not the helper at the sacred fire — she was the saha-dharmiṇī, the co-priest, and the man was thought only half a being without her.

For serious practitioners of Tibetan Buddhist tantra.

The makhan-chor cycle — Kṛṣṇa's childhood thefts of butter in Braj — as a sustained text of Vaiṣṇava theology. The butter is śakti in its most condensed, most nourishing form; the theft is the divine's refusal to be bound by propriety. Includes Sūrdās's pada tradition, Yaśodā's vision of the cosmos in Kṛṣṇa's mouth, and the bhakti understanding that divine love exceeds all rule.
