|  | | Product Description | | | 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.
