What is it about?
This was my first book on Yoga. It was quite popular at that time and was one of my top sellers.I tried to discuss Yoga in the light of Yoga Sutra of Patanjali, the original book on Yoga. I wanted to focus on some of the least understood but never the less most important aspects of Yoga.
In this book I discuss various topics namely mind, its structure, its activities, the well defined process of calming down of the mind, the ultimate states of meditation and so on in a very logical manner. Yoga and Sankhya are two companion schools of thought. I kept the Sankhya concepts of mind in the background while narrating various steps of yoga, with lot of examples and illustrations to make the discussion easy to understand. I tried to show how the entire system of Yoga as defined by Patanjali is scientific and verifiable.
But the book raised quite a few eyebrows though ‘-) Some of my readers even commented that the book is not really on Yoga since it does not talk about body postures. Little do these good friends know that Yoga is not about body postures, but about mind and only mind!
At the same time I got appreciation from some well learned people who felt that I have thrown light on many difficult to understand and often overlooked concepts of Yoga especially different stages of Samadhi – the ultimate state of Yoga.
