Advance Course in Yogi Philosophy and Spiritual Development - Hardcover

by Yogi Ramacharaka (Author)

Excerpts:

...It may be well for us to take a general view of the subject of Yoga. What is the end and aim of the teachings and the practices? What does it all mean? What is Man seeking for in all these endeavors? What does life, and growth, and development, and evolution mean? These are questions that thinking people are constantly asking, and which but few are able to answer even partially. The Yogi Philosophy teaches that the end of all human endeavor and life is to allow the soul to unfold until it reach with Spirit. And as Spirit is the divine part of man- the bit of God-material in him - this union eventually will result in what is known as Union with God - that is the bringing of the individual soul into conscious touch and union with the centre of all life.
