Exploring Yoga Philosophy: 121 Authentic Yoga Lessons (Paperback or Softback)

This book is a compilation of knowledge acquired through several years deep study

and immersion into the esoteric and philosophical sides of Yoga. Yoga is of course a

full time activity when we understand it properly and it is one if the subjects that as

we study it reveals more and more to us, an endless study of our own true innermost

nature.

This book is aimed at Yoga Sadhaks practitioners who are embracing the yogic lifestyle

and who want to sincerely study Yoga at it roots and grow and evolve spiritually as

Human beings, evolving into higher thought and practices of Yoga.

The book takes us through the stages of Raja Yoga and Asht-anga Yoga, the eight yogic

steps to enlightenment and then includes many other concepts that are key foundation

knowledge the serious Yoga sadhaka should try to understand. The book completes

with some mantras that one can use for their own practice and a literal translation of

the Yoga Sutras ancient sanskrit scriptures codified by Yogamaharishi Patanajai. Each

Sutra is translated word for word to allow some of our own interpretation into the

sense these give us when put together into Sutras.

This book will I hope bring some reminder to Yoga Practitioners that the true practice

of Yoga is very much 'off the mat' a modern phrase which in itself reveals how much

Yoga has come away from its roots as it had little to do with mats for a start! This

book and the lessons and stories within it I hope to inspire Yoga Sadhaks to keep in

touch with the roots and philosophical studies alongside the more widely practiced

Asana work, which should be only a small part of this great holistic science.
