East Meets West

How is it that the ancient vedic and tantric philosophies, deities symbols and rituals have been understood and readily accepted by many westerners as true paths and vehicles of spiritual experience? It is as if these traditions, rituals and thoughts are not foreign to them. Rather they communicate with a part of them which reaches inside and connects with their ancient past, a part of their unconscious which they have long lost contact with and are unable to access or understand.
