Leela: The Game of Self-Knowledge/Book&Game

Leela is nothing less than the game of life, providing insight into our own consciousness and a key to divine knowledge. Four things are necessary for one or more to play: the book and game board, a die, and a significant object that belongs to the player, such as a ring, to serve as the player's symbol during the game. Each of the seventy-two squares on the board represents a virtue or vice, an aspect of consciousness or a plane of reality; the players' progress is dictated by the fall of a die corresponding to the forces of karma.

Designed by Hindu sages over two thousand years ago, this is the precursor to the popular game "chutes and ladders."

Simultaneously a game and a serious method of enlightenment, Leela parallels the spiritual journey toward liberation, advancing the player along that path by means of the self-exploration that the game demands.

Repeated playing of Leela will reveal past karmas, current concerns, and the cosmic patterns governing your life.
