Raphael Asram Vidya Order

Essence and Purpose of Yoga (eBook, ePUB)

Initiatory ways to the Transcendent

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Yoga is now a household word, but what does it really denote? What are its philosophical, spiritual, and practical aspects?

The essence of yoga is the absorption of individualised consciousness into universal consciousness. It is an experiential vision, with theoretical and practical aspects which need to be integrated to give the right result.

Raphael here presents a cognitive and operative synthesis of the various paths of yoga, because seekers of truth need to know their own constitutions and dominant energy complexes in order to be able to choose the most congenial type of yoga and enjoy maximum benefits from yogic training.

This, then, is a valuable book, both for those who recognise the need to be correctly informed about the essence and purpose of yoga and for those who feel the 'call' to self-comprehension. Yoga is the science of knowing oneself in order to be.

Autorenporträt

Raphael is a Master in the Metaphysical Tradition of East and West. He has written several books on the pathway of Non-duality (Advaita) and has translated a number of key Vedanta texts from the Sanskrit. He has also commented on the Orphic Tradition and compared it to the works of Plato, Parmenides, and Plotinus. Raphael interprets spiritual practice as a 'Pathway of Fire', which disciples follow in all branches of the Tradition; it is the 'Way of Return'. All disciples follow their own 'Path of Fire' in accordance with that branch of the Tradition to which they belong. According to Raphael, what is important is to express, through living and being, the truth that one has been able to contemplate. Thus, for all beings, their expression of thought and action must be coherent and in agreement with their own specific dharma.After more than 60 years of Teaching, in both oral and written format, Raphael withdrew into mahasamadhi. May Raphael's Consciousness, an expression of the Unity of Tradition, guide and illumine along this Opus all those who donate their mens informalis (formless mind) to the attainment of the highest known Realisation.
