Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Sivananda Companion to Meditation : How to Master the Mind and Achieve Transcendence (Paperback)

Took a chance on this item, as not many folks in the boonies are into this practice. Found it easy to read, i.e. well organized, and intelligently presented. It provided directions, methods and techniques on these arcane subjects that I found extrmely helpful. I definetly recommend it as a starter.The Yoga-Sutra of Patanjali: A New Translation with Commentary (Shambhala Classics)
