Light of the Soul (AAB)

Originally expounded by the Great Sage Patanjali, Yoga Sutras provides a step-by-step plan for scientific meditation and spiritual practice. Written thousands of years ago, it provides the laws of becoming one’s True Self. It was originally recorded in Sanskrit from the oral teachings of the Masters of Wisdom. This version includes the statement of the teachings followed with commentary by Alice A. Bailey.

“The Science of Raja Yoga, or the “Kingly Science of the Soul,” as laid down by its main exponent, Patanjali, will eventually find its greatest demonstration in the West. This is owing to the fact that—under cyclic law—the fifth root race must inevitably touch its highest point. That point, in the economy of the races, is seen exemplified in the right use of the mind and its utilization by the soul for the achievement of group objectives and the development of group consciousness upon the physical plane.

“Hitherto the mind has either been prostituted to material ends or has been deified. Through the science of Raja Yoga, the mind will be known as the instrument of the soul and the means whereby the brain of the aspirant becomes illuminated and knowledge gained of those matters which concern the realm of the soul.” (page vii)

A magnificent book, based on Alice Bailey’s serious study of meditation, ancient traditions, and previous translations of this teaching. The Yoga Sutras form the foundation of all true spiritual traditions. Topics include:

• The problem of union
• The steps to union
• Union achieved and its results
• Illumination

We recommend the serious reading of this book for a clear and safe understanding of the role Yoga plays in our life. Clear instructions are given about various Yogas, including Hatha Yoga and Laya Yoga, and others.
