Where each thread leads
Akasha
A Sanskrit word usually translated as 'space' or 'ether' — the subtlest of the classical elements, the medium in which everything else exists.
Dharma
A Sanskrit term with no single English equivalent — somewhere between law, duty, order, righteousness and the nature of a thing.
Yoga
A family of disciplines aimed at steadying the mind — far older and far wider than the postural practice the word now names globally.
Vedānta
A family of Indian philosophical schools reading the Upanishads, disagreeing sharply about the relationship between self and ultimate reality.
