The current explanation of history cannot explain ancient anomalies, such as the Pyramids and advanced scientific and mathematical knowledge contained in India's hoary Vedas - but in 1894 an Indian sage gave us an explanation not only for our hidden past, but for the trends of today and for our future enlightenment - a 24,000 year cycle of human development. The Yugas reveal: · advanced knowledge and higher civilisations in the ancient past · evolving consciousness and human potential through the yugas - mental telepathy, overcoming time and space · present trends in our age of energy · man's enlightened future - paradise on earth The concept of the yugas is critically important for a clear understanding of humankind's ancient past, our potential future, and the way the larger cosmic environment influences humanity's changing consciousness.  The conventional mainstream view of an overall linear progression in human history is no longer tenable; it is now clear that the ancients of 10,000 to 15,000 years ago were not “primitives” and we have much to learn from them.  Based on the teachings of Sri Yukteswar, The Yugas by Joseph Selbie and David Steinmetz provides a perceptive analysis of history from the height of the last Satya Yuga (Spiritual Age) of circa 11,500 B.C. to our present age.  Just as importantly, the authors discuss trends and developments that we may anticipate over the next 10,000 years as the cycle of the yugas comes full circle. The Yugas integrates and synthesizes disparate facts and apparent anomalies that are often ignored.  "This is a profound book on a profound subject.  Intelligently written and fascinating, it provides new revelations on the unfolding of human potential over the course of millennia.  --Robert M. Schoch, Ph.D. "An amazing, mind-expanding investigation of the hidden cycles underlying the rise and fall of civilizations. I found The Yugas not only intellectually convincing but also spiritually and emotionally uplifting and deeply healing as well. Despite the dark signs of the times we live in there is hope here for all of us."—Graham Hancock, author Fingerprints of the Gods
