Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

A fresh look at Yoga philosophy.Winner of the 2008 Rajinder and Jyoti Gandhi Book Award for Excellence in Dharma Studies presented by Taksha InstituteIn Yoga and the Luminous, a book that emerges from more than thirty years of practice, study, and reflection, Christopher Key Chapple addresses the need for an accessible explanation of Yoga's difficult philosophy and its applications in daily life.

He continues with Yoga practice and the philosophy of S??khya, and then, in step-by-step fashion, he brings the reader to an understanding of the ethics of Yoga, the role of movement and breath, and the processes of concentration and meditation.

Chapple also gives special attention to the feminine in the description of Yoga practices.…
