Graham M. Schweig
is an author, scholar, and yogi who teaches about the
universal language of the heart. Graham claims that the
most painful form of impoverishment in this world is hunger
of the heart, found everywhere in both afluent and poor
societies. Every religious and spiritual tradition, if
probed deeply, Graham believes, reveals secrets of divine
love that can offer the world nourishishment for the heart.
Graham has devoted his personal and professional life to
sharing with others his discoveries of these divine gifts
for humanity.
Dr. Graham M.
Schweig, who received his doctorate degree from Harvard
University, is a scholar of Comparative Religion whose
specialization is the philosophy of yoga and the spiritual
traditions of India. He is a specialist in love mysticism,
concentrating on religions of the heart, especially the
Bhakti Yoga traditions of India. Graham's ultimate interest
is to find religious truths from within Indic traditions
that contribute powerful symbols that speak beyond their
religious boundaries, moving religion toward world
peace.
He is a
long-time practitioner of meditational and devotional yoga
under the guidance of traditional teachers since 1967.

Bhagavad-gita: The Beloved
Lord's Secret Love Song
"The
Bhagavad Gita is a religious classic; Graham Schweig's
felicitous translation of it deserves to be called a
classic in its own right."
---ARVIND SHARMA, Birks
Professor of Comparative Religion at McGill University and
author of Our Religions
"Schweig's new, beautiful,
and accessible translation of the Gita, backed by his
enormous knowledge and authoritative commentary, will
remain the standard text of this marvelous Song for years
to come, if indeed it is ever superseded."
---HUSTON SMITH, Author of The
World's Religions
Dance of
Divine Love:
India's Classic Sacred Love Story:
The Rasa Lila of Krishna
"This is truly first-rate
scholarship. The five-chapter dramatic poem of the Rasa
Lila is a gem of world literature, and Schweig has polished
it masterfully. His translation gives a sense of the poetic
aspect of the work as well as its theology."
--E. F. Bryant, Rutgers
University
