À propos de cet audio
Though yoga is well known as a process to achieve the ultimate realization, not much attention is paid to its psychological underpinnings. This audiobook builds up the theory behind yoga based on descriptions given in ancient texts such as the yoga sutras of Patanjali (around 200 BC) and Samkhyakarika of Isvara Krshna (around AD 300). This understanding is essential to get a complete grasp of the yoga process.
This audiobook clearly explains the concept of mind as defined in the yoga sutra and Samkhyakarika, the various states this mind can be in, and how by a step-by-step process the mind can be nudged into the ultimate desirable state, namely the Samadhi. It discusses various hindrances one encounters while going through this process as well as how these can be overcome. As often mistaken, samadhi is not a single state but a series of progressive states one goes through as one progresses into the yoga practice. This audiobook explains those stages both with reference to the original sources as well as through simple analogies.
The ultimate state of yoga, namely the niruddha state of mind, is also very well explained, telling of its implications and what exactly happens in that stage.
