From the Back Cover

Followers of the early-20th-century "New Age" philosophy of New Thought believed they could learn the secrets of mind over matter, and one of their most influential teachers--enormously popular writer and editor William Walker Atkinson, writing pseudonymously here--revealed to them, in this 1906 work, the teachings of Raja Yoga. His lessons cover:

* the ego's mental tools * the expansion of the self * mental control * the cultivation of attention * the cultivation of perception * subconscious character building * and much more.
