Softcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. De Yogasoetra van Patañjali is de belangrijkste tekst van de yogatraditie. Ze bestaat uit moeilijk te begrijpen spreuken. In vergelijking met de vorige editie van dit werk is de vertaling toegankelijker gemaakt. Enkele onnauwkeurigheden zijn verbeterd. A…an het yogadenken ligt een oude organische filosofie ten grondslag. Die filosofie wordt Samkhya genoemd. Ze leert dat de werkelijkheid besloten ligt in een kiem. Wanneer die kiem zich ontvouwt ontstaat niets nieuws. Wat eerst onzichtbaar was wordt dan zichtbaar. Dat is alles. Zo wordt wat een mens ten diepste wil zichtbaar door zijn handelen. Al handelend openbaart de mens wat hij in wezen is. Door zijn gedachte dat leven niets anders is dan onbewuste roerselen die tot bewustzijn komen, is Patañjali de voorloper van de dieptepsychologie. In zijn achtvoudige yogapad leert hij mensen zich van hun innerlijke belemmeringen te ontdoen om zo innerlijke vrijheid te vinden.

It points out ho…w these ideas were used by the psychologists of the Abhidharma, how they issued in the mystical conceptions of Mahayana. But before all, the book treats the more intellectual notions about time and being as found in the Madhyamaka and Yogacara, and it analyses the logic of Buddhist idealism.Then the reader leaves India and goes to China to become familiar with the epochal figures of Sengzhao and Xuanzang, learns about the Garland and Tiantai schools, and, finally, he is led through the Japanese Zen Buddhism of Dogen and Hakuin. Is there another book that offers a similar broad view in such a small space ______________________________ 'Why is some of the best contemporary work work on Indian philosophy authored by non-Indians Is it because we are so mired in our prejudices and condition, that we fail to develop a proper sense of perspective and therefore the objectivity required for correct analysis Alfred Scheepers' overview of Buddhist thought ranging from its inception to its spread into the Far East, is easily one of the most comprehensive contemporary works on the subject. And I say this despite the presence of a host of hefty tomes on the subject lying on my desk. The book is wrtitten with a unique flair, a love of the subject, and although the author displays a tremendous scholarship for his material, his writing comes across as crisp and easy. Such is his masterly presentation that the entire ambit of Buddhism is dealt with within 300 pages and one never gets the feeling that the volume is only an verview. From Abhidharma to Hakuin, Scheepers explores, analyses and quotes with remarkable fidelity. He is careful not to impose his own values but considers the evidence with the eyes of a man seeking enlightenment' 'The Quarterly Review of Books', Bombay, June 2000.
