Format: Paperback/Hardback
In these engaging lectures, Srila Prabhupada thoroughly examines the philosophy of yoga as outlined in the Sixth and Eighth Chapters of the Gita, demonstrating how these timeless teachings are relevant in the present day.
In its ancient Indian origins, yoga was designed for controlling the mind and body while realizing the true self. Many modern practices don't fully align with this original purpose. The science of yoga is closely linked to the science of the soul and the ultimate goal of the soul, opening up a wide array of philosophical discussions. All aspects are thoroughly explored here. Topics covered include the nature of consciousness, meditation techniques, karma, death, reincarnation, and spiritual ecstasy.
