Meditation and MantrasMotilal Banarsidass Publ., 1999 - 267 Seiten This volume is intended to dispel the cloud of confusion that has accumulated around the subject of meditation. Those who are looking for secret short-cuts, novel innovations, exciting new trends and fads in the area of self-development may be disappointed. The methods presented here stem from the classic four path of Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga and Bhakti Yoga. These are given in their uncorrupted form, yet with consideration for the Western mind and scientific tradition. |
