The Spiritual Foundation of Yoga: Understanding Nature and Spirit (Hardcover Color Edition) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798988062240)

Sāṅkhya is one of the world's most valued and ancient spiritual philosophies. It is pure spirituality, free of religion, and remains as relevant today as it was 5,000 years ago when Kapila first taught it. Sāṅkhya is the spiritual foundation of Yoga. The original and ultimate purpose of Yoga is that it is a path that leads to a powerful realization of the highest Truth of who or what we essentially are, knowledge of which enables us to transcend suffering and, as a result, realize spiritual freedom.

Suraj Sarode teaches Sāṅkhya philosophy in its original form in this book, covering each principle in exquisite detail while providing pointers to practical understanding and reflective meditation techniques. Learn Sāṅkhya's enumerated model of 25 principles, followed by understanding the essential difference between Nature (Prakṛti) and Spirit (Puruṣa). Sāṅkhya provides the student or teacher of Yoga with an information package of transcendent wisdom, whereas Yoga forms the practice and potential for the experiential revelation of Sāṅkhya philosophy. The aim is Self-realization and spiritual Liberation.
