By Georg Feuerstein
Translated by Peter Padam
From the foreword by Ken Wilber:
"The book contains without doubt the finest overview of yoga currently available; it is a book that will become a classic. This is for the simple reason that it is both scientifically sound and comes from dedicated practice. ...
Enter now into the reality of yoga, which, as they say, leads from suffering to liberation, from existential pain to ecstasy, from time to eternity, from death to immortality. And rest assured that you are in good hands on this extraordinary journey."
