The Lost Teachings of Yoga
Audio Book contains 6 CDs, 7˝ hours
It is estimated that over 20 million Americans have practiced some form of Yoga,
yet almost none of them have heard of Yoga's early teachers or their insights.
While we are familiar with Yoga's physical benefits, the original purpose of
Yoga - as a path to inner freedom and enlightenment - is embodied by only a few
students in the West. Handed down to us over the past 5, 000 years, the mental
and spiritual disciplines of this complete philosophy for living are "in danger
of vanishing forever."
Beyond Postures and Breathing Techniques
Now Yoga authority Georg Feuerstein immerses you in The Lost Teachings of Yoga:
the first comprehensive audio curriculum on Yoga's original spiritual wisdom and
practices. A leading scholar and practitioner of Yoga in the West for more than
30 years, Feuerstein introduces you to the wonders beyond Yoga's postures and
breathing techniques, and points the way to the "inner strength and mental
peace" that is Yoga's first objective. Taught by Feuerstein himself, this full
12-session, 7-hour course reveals the true history of Yoga, the gifted masters
who brought it to the West, its many branches and the rich fruit they yield,
Yoga's virtues and disciplines that "flower into enlightenment," subtle anatomy
and the energy of prana or life force, the origins of asanas, and much more.
Yoga's Ultimate Achievement
Georg Feuerstein has said that in America today, "We need Yoga now more than
ever." Not simply because we want to develop strong, flexible bodies - but
because Yoga's vast spiritual heritage can help us uncover the deeper purpose of
life. Discover for yourself "Yoga's ultimate achievement" and your foundation
for a more effective daily practice with The Lost Teachings of Yoga.
