In Yoga: The Science of the Soul, one of the greatest
spiritual teachers of the twentieth century presents the history
and philosophy of this timeless health practice.
Much of what is known as yoga today emphasizes physical
postures and exercises to increase flexibility and help relaxation.
But in fact, yoga has its roots in centuries of rigorous
investigation and research in the East to develop an understanding
of human consciousness and its potential.
In Yoga,
Osho explains the meaning of some of the most important Yoga Sutras
of Patanjali, an early “scientist of the soul” who is credited with
being the father of Raja Yoga, or the “royal path” of yoga that uses
physical postures and breath primarily as a means to achieve higher
states of consciousness. With a fresh translation of these ancient
texts, and unique Osho insights into the modern mind and its
psychology, Patanjali comes to life on the pages with an approach to
using yoga for greater self-understanding that is absolutely
relevant to our times.
An invaluable resource for
beginning or experienced yoga practitioners, and for anyone who
seeks to better understand the intricate and powerful relationship
that exists between body and mind.
Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the
conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their
capacity to enjoy life in all its richness. He has been described
by the Sunday Times of London as one of the “1000 Makers of
the 20th Century” and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of
the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha—who have
changed the destiny of India. Since his death in 1990, the
influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers
of all ages invirtually every country of the world.
