B.K. Dalai (Author)

Synopsis

Prominent experts on the subject of yoga analyse various yoga concepts as propounded by ancient seers in this volume.

It explains the concept of yama and pranayama. It analyses the concept of dhyana as detailed in the Puranas, as presented by the Jaina tradition and as perceived by the Mahayana tradition. It also provides the meaning of the doctrine of samadhi. It details the understanding and place of yoga in the twentieth century. It throws light on some rare unpublished manuscripts on yoga in the process.
