what he covers in his work. I plan to get this one:

Yogi: childhood of Swami Vivekananda. II. Culture and healing: 4. Lord of
the spirit world. 5. The Guru as healer. 6. The body image. 7. Clinical work
and cultural imagination. 8. The maternal—feminine in Indian psychoanalysis.
III. Erotic love: 9. The cloistered passion of Radha and Krishna. 10. Gandhi
and women. 11. Lovers in the dark. IV. Religion and psyche: 12. Ramakrishna
and the mystical experience. 13. The Virtuous Virago. 14. Meeting the
