of the Sriyantra (image on the altar on cover of our textbook)
in terms of mathematics and geometry. Explains its purpose and
its connection to various aspects of Vedantic religion. Looks
rather interesting and well-informed.

Dalitstan Organization is a Human Rights Organization working for
the Upliftment of Dalits, the Black Untouchables of India. These form
one of the most oppressed ethnic groups in the World, enduring the
2000-year Sudra Holocaust." This site is strongly anti-Hindu,
and defends religious freedom and tolerance, especially for Islam
and Christianity.

a promotional web site by Jains. Fascinating in terms of seeing
a presentation of modern Jainism written by actual practitioners.
- Jainism:
Jain Links prof. Yashwant K. Malaiya at Colorado State University,
who is apparently a modern follower of Jain philosophy. Some
of the links are old and no longer active.

- Yoga at the International
Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center (this site is less Americanized than
most web sites I found on the net.)
- Mirror
of India Interesting site with art and iconography relevant to
the practices of yoga and tantra. There are lots of pictures
of Vedantic deities. Very little text or information.
Images are important to Hindu religion.
- Kundalini &
Tantric Yoga a more or less New Age-eclectic site that connects
the Indian practices with various religious traditions. It looks
like a pretty good site, but keep in mind that it mixes a variety
of traditions to present a sort of multicultural tradition of Tantra.

like that.
