Produktbeschreibung
"Raja Yoga" by Yogi Ramacharaka, a pseudonym for William Walker Atkinson, offers a unique perspective on mental development and spiritual exploration. Despite its title, the book delves into New Thought principles as much as traditional yogic practices. Through meditation, breath retention, and concentration techniques, readers are guided toward the ultimate goal of cosmic absorption. This work, laden with mental exercises and affirmations, presents a fusion of Western ideas and Hindu philosophy. Atkinson's extensive exploration of science mirrors contemporary New Thought trends that reference quantum physics. Despite its eclectic nature, readers find immense value in the clarity with which Atkinson explains the processes of the mind. Offering advanced meditation practices, the book provides a roadmap to transcendental states, aligning with the solitary path of spiritual exploration. "Raja Yoga" becomes a beacon for those seeking profound insights into the mind, offering a steady guide for spiritual growth and self-discovery.
Autorenporträt
Yogi Ramacharaka is the pen name of spiritualist author William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) and probably a mystery collaborator well versed in Indian philosophy (to whom Atkinson himself actually attributed the books). The two of them published a series of books at the beginning of the 20th century with the purpose of demystifying Eastern philosophy for a Western audience. The first book, Fourteen Lessons in Yogi Philosophy and Oriental Occultism, became an instant success and has been in print ever since. Atkinson was an attorney, author, publisher, businessman, and a leading figure in the New Thought Movement that studied ancient wisdom and Eastern philosophy. He wrote over a hundred books during the last thirty years of his life. In the foreword of this new edition from Bamboo Leaf Press, yoga teacher and writer Richard Rosen discusses the extraordinary work of Atkinson and explores the mystery and identity of his alleged collaborator.
