There are so many books about the 8-limb path, and I have read quite a few but none as simple, clear and concise as this one. The author is straight forward and insightful. This is one of the best that I have read that gives a beautiful overview of the entire path without getting bogged down. It is a fresh approach that presents the path and allows you to travel it in your own personal way.

SWAMI RAMA is,was,and always will be a Guru for all of us,chelas or not.If you are starting in yoga,or in Swami Rama,this is the first book to read ! Divine for starters ! I put three stars only because it was material known ( most of it) to me,and because I would not know what to put to the other Sw.Rama's books...
