Pages: 232 (39 B/W Illustrations)Back of the BookYoga now a household word - is still clothed in mystery and misunderstanding. Many students are confused by Sanskrit terms and the many different paths of yoga expounded by various schools. In this concise yet exhaustive volume, now a widely read text for students of yoga and spirituality, the author has clarified the doubts and questions of students from all parts of the world. In his wide travels he has instructed aspirants of every racial and religious group and understood their basic and urgent needs.Endorsed with forewords from the Vatican and heads of Anglican, Jewish and Sufi faiths, Yoga is highly recommended reading for all seekers of truth, saner living and self knowledge. About the AuthorSwami Venkatesananda, for twenty years a recluse and asetic disciple of the world renown sage Swami Sivananda, spent the next twenty years continuing his service of Guru and humanity, teaching through word and example the ideal of enlightened life: the practice of yoga in a modern context. The most outstanding feature of his life and writings is the simplicity which is reflected in his common sense view of our seemingly complex problems. Swami Venkatesanandas practical instruction in yoga postures, meditation and the application of yoga philosophy indicate his deep personal knowledge and insight into both the teachings themselves and the dynamics of life.During the first part of my stay in South Africa in 1961, I noticed an intense desire on the part of many Indians and Non-Indians to rediscover for adoption in their own lives a saner2 glue of life. The impact of materialistic civilization made it difficult Sir them to assimilate orthodox teaching as offered in the scriptures; they were not quite satisfied with a complete break-away from tradition into the free-thinkers bye-lanes where a

The Supreme Yoga

Motilal Banarsidass

The Yoga Vasistha has been a favourite book of spiritual seekers in India these several centuries. Its special appeal lies in its thoroughly rational approach, and in its presentation of Vedanta as a philosophy to bridge the gulf between the secular and the sacred, action and contemplation, in human life, through a comprehensive and lofty spirituality. This monumental scripture is the greatest help to the spiritual awakening and the direct experience of the Truth. This is certain. If this is what you want, you are welcome to the Yoga Vasistha. An oft-recurring expression in this scripture is kakataliya'-a crow alights on the coconut palm tree and at that very moment a ripe coconut falls. The two unrelated events thus seem to be related in time and space, though there is no causal relationship. Such is life. Such is 'creation'. But the mind caught up in its own trap of logic questions why, invents a 'why' and a 'wherefore' to satisfy itself, conveniently ignoring the inconvenient questions that still haunt an intelligent mind. Vasistha demands direct observation of the mind, its motion, its notions, its reasoning, the assumed cause and the projected result, and even the observer, the observed and the observation-and the realisation of their indivisible unity as the infinite consciousness.
