Beskrivelse

Volume-1 (Samadhipada)

This is the very foundation of the subject of Yoga. Defines Yoga. Describes different dimensions of samadhi. Specifies the definite means of attaining liberation.Samadhipada predominantly focuses on setting the main objective of Yoga (nirodha)-restraining, rejecting the withdrawing the mind. Main topics are on samprajñatasamadhi, and abhyasa and vairagya, which help attainment of complete spiritual experiences in order to transpose the chitta from a state of activity into a state of non-activity (asamprajñatasamadhi).This volume describes different kinds of yogi-s, and their journey to different spiritual realms-to be reborn or to get liberated.Samkhya and Yogadarsana complement each other. Samkhya is the doctrinal aspect of the same subject of which Yoga is the pragmatic aspect.Following fundamental doctrines find detailed expositions: Doctrine of Twenty four Innate Principles (and Purusha), Doctrine of Integral Cause and Effect, Doctrine of Triguna-s, Universal Doctrine of Transformation, and so on.SIVAM

SIVAM (to mean purity, welfare, auspicious, liberation), the present work (in four volumes), is an independent research work based on more than hundred classical scriptures, presented in simple English. It treats Yogadarsana traditionally, as all the ancient classical works have treated.It discusses all the doctrines, principles, and practices as intended to be implemented by the aphorisms and the ancient teachers. The current work makes the subject as practical as possible with hints and analogies.This work is neither a translation nor a compilation. It is an independent work, amply and exhaustively, substantiated by the available classical bhashya-s (commentaries). Of course, in certain instances, the import of the aphorisms are given precedence over the bhashya-s.Classical scriptures are used to explain each word thoroughly in four volumes.It has a phonetic guide, a well-made index (for both English and Sanskrit words) and a bibliography.This series, besides describing doctrinal aspects of Samkhya and Yoga, discusses, in-depth, on traditional practices of Yama s, Niyama-s, Asana-s, Pranayana, Pratyahara, Samadhi, Samprajñatasamadhi, and Asamprajñatasamadhi.The work describes the meanings of Purusha, prakriti, indriya-s, manas, ahamkara, and buddhi, which are usually loosely translated to mean soul, nature, sense organs, mind, ego, and intellect respectively. A thorough and precise knowledge of them is indispensable for attaining samadhi-s.SIVAM is a reference work for scholars, researchers, teachers, students and for committed practitioners.Yogadarsana

They liken Yogadarsana to an ocean which is the source of all great rivers, like Ganga. All the other Darsana-s, in their essence, are embedded in Yoga. Yoga establishes a firm foundation for other spiritual studies.Yogadarsana transcends religion, faith, or beliefs, freeing the mind from any bias. It speaks of the welfare of the entire humanity and living beings without discrimination on any ground.It is a discussion of spiritual, intellectual, and moral foundations for liberation.Yogadarsana maintains pragmatism. Progress can be measured from the individual's behavioral patterns-his psychological response to the surrounding environment fostering a clearly discernible sound sense of detachment.
