It was never so mundane as making money or writing for the sake of writing. The various aspects and studies of the subject were considered around the nucleus of the subject matter itself consisting of definition, classification, methods and evaluative results. The practical purpose behind the writing was to aid the students in attaining spiritual realisation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was a matter of crucial importance that only an adhikari i.e., person who was interested in attaining spiritual realization studied such classical works. This cautions us that the Yoga Sutras should be studied only by those persons who posses such an interest. The author who wrote the Yoga Sutras had a very important purpose in writing them. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Thoughts on the Yoga Sutras of Pantajali Presented in this book are made simple and are free rendering of the talks by Dr. Jayadeva who has experienced Yoga and is Practising what he preaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface \u003cbr\u003eIntroduction \u003cbr\u003eNotes to the Reader \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYoga Sutra of Pantajali \u003cbr\u003eChapter – I Samadhi Pada \u003cbr\u003eChapter – II Sadhana Pada \u003cbr\u003eChapter – III Vibhuti Pada \u003cbr\u003eChapter – IV Kaivalya Pada \u003cbr\u003eFurther Readings \u003cbr\u003eScope of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali \u003cbr\u003eChitta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.\tMind and Consciousness \u003cbr\u003e2.\tAnalysing Our Mind (Vrittis) \u003cbr\u003e3.\tThe Divine and the Demonical Qualities \u003cbr\u003e4.\tYoga Philosophy and Practice \u003cbr\u003e5.\tOne-Pointed Be life in Higher Reality\u003cbr\u003e6.\tIf you Practice Yoga \u003cbr\u003e7.\tMind and Matter – ( Gunas and Personality – Mind) \u003cbr\u003e8.\tMatter and Beyond Matter – (Gunas) \u003cbr\u003e9.\tThe Three Actors – (Gunas) \u003cbr\u003eEightfold Path \u003cbr\u003e10.\tThe Eight Steps of Yoga \u003cbr\u003e11.\tThe Eightfold Path\u003cbr\u003ePractice and Detachment\u003cbr\u003e12.\tAbhyasa \u003cbr\u003e13.\tVairagya \u003cbr\u003eOn Faith \u003cbr\u003e14.\tFaith \u003cbr\u003e15.\tThe Larger Process \u003cbr\u003e16.\tDiminishing Returns \u003cbr\u003e17.\tDiscipline and Discrimination \u003cbr\u003e18.\tDuty \u003cbr\u003eKarma \u0026amp; Karma Yoga \u003cbr\u003e19.\tIdealism \u0026amp; Realism \u003cbr\u003e20.\tWe Create our World\u003cbr\u003e21.\tKarma Yoga \u003cbr\u003e22.\tSecret to Live A Joyful Life – (The ‘I’ and ‘Not I’) \u003cbr\u003eKleshas \u003cbr\u003e23.\tIntegrating Habits \u003cbr\u003e24.\tStructural Defects of the Mind \u003cbr\u003e25.\tHigher Reality \u003cbr\u003e26.\tPatanjali’s View on The States of Consciousness \u003cbr\u003eOn Prakriti – Purusha \u003cbr\u003e27.\tMatter and Spirit \u003cbr\u003ePrana \u0026amp; Pranayana \u003cbr\u003e28.\tThoughts on Prana \u003cbr\u003e29.\tOn Pranayama \u003cbr\u003e30.\tTheory of Prana \u003cbr\u003e31.\tPranayama in the Yoga Sutras \u003cbr\u003eOn Yamas \u0026amp; Niyamas \u003cbr\u003e32.\tYama, Niyama \u003cbr\u003e33.\tValue of Restraint \u003cbr\u003e34.\tAre we True to Ourselves? \u003cbr\u003e35.\tSimple Excercises on a Yama \u003cbr\u003e36.\tNiyamas \u003cbr\u003eOn Samadhi \u003cbr\u003e37.\tFrom Dhyama to Samadhi \u003cbr\u003e38.\tSamprajnata and Asamprajnata \u003cbr\u003e39.\tSamprajna and Samapatti \u003cbr\u003e40.\tSavitarka Samadhi \u003cbr\u003e41.\tNirvitarka Samadhi \u003cbr\u003e42.\tSavichara to Nirvichara \u003cbr\u003e43.\tTruth Bearing (Rtambhara) Consciousness \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAppendix \u003cbr\u003eThe Entire Yoga Sutras\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The India Club","offers":[{"title":"Jayadeva Yogendra \/ The Yoga Institute \/ Hardcover","offer_id":68153556599152,"sku":"28701","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1041\/5203\/9792\/files\/28701.jpg?v=1793911102","url":"https:\/\/marketcalvexa.shop\/products\/the-yoga-sutras-of-patanjali-stray-thoughts","provider":"Alderstone House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
