YOGA and Self-Enquiry

Book excerpt: This practical guidebook is suitable for both beginners as well as more advanced practitioners of Yoga. PART 1 focuses on the teachings of Self-enquiry as presented by Śri Ramana Maharshi and other luminaries in the field of Advaita Vedānta. PART 2 summarizes the teachings of Yoga and details how a keen seeker can put into daily practice Patañjali's eight limbs of yoga to achieve their ultimate aim: Kaivalya or final liberation. Providing much more than an introduction to Yoga and Vedānta, this book focuses on the higher-level teachings of these two spiritual practices, revealing their underlying unity and complementarity. "A valuable resource for anyone interested in deepening their exploration of spirituality and realization of the Self." Garth McLean, Senior Iyengar Yoga Teacher "A classic... I simply could not put this book down... an awe-inspiring contribution." Stephen Cope, Bestselling Author, Kripalu Center
