Eastern Philosophy for Western Minds

An approach to the principles and modern practice of yoga. It is the purpose of this book to clear up various popular misconceptions concerning the time-honored teachings of yoga, and to satisfy, in some measure, the growing desire for more information about the methods for schooling the mind and body which they set forth. No claim to originality is made, relative to the ideas and principles discussed. It is hoped that the manner in which those ideas and principles are presented will be found better adapted to the western mind than that in which they usually have been presented before.
