2014Il presente saggio è frutto di accurate ricerche e raccoglie l'eredità del grande orientalista Icilio Vecchiotti; in esso le origini storiche e sociali delle caste indiane vengono analizzate, rivelando così l'autentica cultura vedico-indiana, strutturata secondo un ordine ben diverso, un ordine che rispettava la natura di ogni essere vivente e l'armonia con il cosmo. Invasioni e realtà coloniali hanno portato alla degenerazione di una cultura che oggi ha molto da offrire ad una società moderna sempre più devastata da problemi interiori ed esteriori; ma occorre saper cogliere in modo profondo discipline come lo yoga affinché possa avvenire una reale trasformazione sociale. Troppo spesso l'Oriente è diventato uno stereotipo a nostro uso e consumo e scuole mistiche straordinarie sono state distorte, semplificate o mistificate, diventando una moda o un esercizio da palestra. L'autore si propone di fornire gli strumenti critici necessari per accostarsi ad un sapere valido e sempre attuale. Autori: Valentino Bellucci.
