Jnana Yoga (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162916194)

Jnana Yoga is a book written by Swami Vivekananda, an Indian Hindu monk and philosopher, that explores the path of knowledge or Jnana Yoga. The book is a collection of lectures delivered by Vivekananda in London in 1896, where he explains the principles of Jnana Yoga and its relevance to modern life. The book is divided into two parts. The first part discusses the nature of the self, the universe, and God, and how one can attain knowledge of these through the practice of Jnana Yoga. Vivekananda explains the different stages of spiritual evolution and the role of the intellect in achieving liberation. He also discusses the concept of Maya, or illusion, and how it affects our perception of reality.The second part of the book delves deeper into the practice of Jnana Yoga, including the techniques of meditation and self-inquiry. Vivekananda emphasizes the importance of discrimination and detachment in the pursuit of knowledge, and how one can overcome the obstacles that hinder spiritual progress. He also explores the relationship between Jnana Yoga and other paths of yoga, such as Bhakti Yoga and Karma Yoga.Overall, Jnana Yoga is a comprehensive guide to the path of knowledge, providing practical advice and insights for those seeking spiritual growth and enlightenment. Vivekananda's teachings continue to inspire and influence spiritual seekers around the world, making this book a timeless classic of Indian philosophy and spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
