Published for The Himalayan International Institute of Yoga Science and Philosophy, Honesdale, Pennsylvania. Swami Rama, the first Himalayan yoga master to work closely with the scientific community, now outlines a fascinating study of yoga science for modern man. Introduced in 1970 to researchers at the Menninger Clinic, he participated in experiments which revolutionized medical theories of the relationship between body and mind. Monitored on a battery of laboratory instruments, Swami Rama demonstrated his ability to stop his heart from pumping blood for seventeen seconds and voluntarily maintained his production of various brain waves, among other accomplishments of yogic control. 'Lectures on Yoga' is a systematic, easy to understand presentation of effective self-training programs to expand one's physical, mental and spiritual horizons. East and West are united to give readers a practical method to self-understanding; all ages will benefit from this lucid presentation of time-honored wisdom. Contents: What is Yoga? - Yama and Niyama - Asanas and Their Therapeutic Value - Pranayama - A Few Glimpses of Concentration - Mind and Its Analysis - What is Meditation? - Samadhi. Includes Glossary.
