Product Description Excerpts from the book: ".It may be well for us to take a general view of the subject of Yoga. What is the end and aim of the teachings and the practices? What does it all mean? What is Man seeking for in all these endeavors? What does life, and growth, and development, and evolution mean? These are questions that thinking people are constantly asking, and which but few are able to answer even partially. The Yogi Philosophy teaches that the end of all human endeavor and life is to allow the soul to unfold until it reach with Spirit. And as Spirit is the divine part of man- the bit of God-material in him - this union eventually will result in what is known as Union with God - that is the bringing of the individual soul into conscious touch and union with the centre of all life."

Awesome ClassicJuly 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent book in metaphysics written in the 1920s. I consider it one of the foundation books you should have. Even though its written in a dated style it covers all the basics. You will find modern authors repeat what this author stated way back then. "Yogi Ramacharaka" was the pen name for William Walker Atkinson, (who was also one of the "Three Initiates" who the Hermetic classic, "The Kyballion". I highly recommend this book and almost anything written by the author. JayDee
