About this title

Synopsis

The gateways to wonder and delight are flung open wide for all to enter. At once a beautiful love song and an encyclopedia of yogic techniques, the cherished text known as the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra shimmers with new effulgence in Lorin Roche's The Radiance Sutras. Lorin brings us his unique perspective on each of 112 Sanskrit teachings, along with his one-of-a-kind guidance in how to meditate with, embody, and practice them―what he describes as "answering the call of the sutras you love."

Here is an invitation to experience directly the ecstatic depths of yoga as revealed by the divine partners Shiva and Shakti, through an intimate exploration of:

The divinity that is permeating your body at this very moment
• The alchemical power of Sanskrit
• Yoga meditation―harmonizing all the elements and levels of your being
• The depths of your connection to the energies of life
Taken as a whole, this teaching is startling in its breadth and the huge range of human experience that it encompasses. This is a book to savor one phrase at a time, over a period of days or years or a lifetime. With The Radiance Sutras, yoga and meditation students everywhere can nurture their own relationship with these living wisdom teachings.

About the Author

Lorin began meditating in 1968, as part of scientific research at the University of California at Irvine. It was there he first heard the luminous and startling teaching of the Vijnana Bhairava Tantra, a classic yoga text describing 112 meditation practices. It was love at first listening. 

Scientific research indicates that meditation is a spontaneous and natural human experience, and that there are many doorways into meditation, more than a hundred. Each individual may be called to one or more of these practices - this is your natural technique. For the last 45 years, Lorin's passion has been to help people find the meditation techniques that truly suit their inner nature. Lorin is the author of Meditation Made Easy (HarperOne), Meditation Secrets for Women (HarperOne, written with his wife Camille Maurine), and The Radiance Sutras (Sounds True). Lorin's audio programs include Meditation for Yoga Lovers (Sounds True, 2013). He lives in Los Angeles.
