I owned and used this book for years until I gave it to a group of young people. They were coming to Yoga for the first time and were full of questions, both of a practical and philosophical nature. This book provides clear and comprehensive instructions on how one might perform many of the postures in Hatha Yoga. While there is no substitute for a good Yoga teacher, this book makes for a useful reference guide for home practise. There is so much more to Yoga than the practise of posture and breathing techniques and the Swami succeeds in explaining much of the philosophy without getting bogged down in categorising the indescribable. The suggestions on how to integrate Yoga practise into everyday Western living are most helpful and hopefully show that you need not be a monk to succesfully "work on your self". I am so glad to see this book back in print. I have been looking for a replacement for years since I first gave my copy away.

If you have an interest in yoga this book is the one of the best. Its written in a clear and simple way which makes it easy to understand and it covers all aspects of yoga. Includes a training type table for different levels so its great for beginners and advanced.

Format:Paperback
I have never found a better book on yoga anywhere. This book is written by a great teacher who came from India. It has a comprehensive set of yoga postures, breathing excercises and meditation. The only flaw in the book is that one should study under a teacher. For those who cannot find a teacher or would rather work alone, I strongly suggest working with inner guides. A good book on this is The Inner Guide Meditation, or a similar book. A teacher is necessary, because contrary to what others may say, yoga and other spiritual excercises do work. They work for anyone who has the time and patience to do the excercises even for a short time. Results may take years to come, but they do come. But given a teacher to see the results through which can be frightening at times, this is an excellent book and I strongly recommend it.
