4.0 out of 5 stars short philosophical affirmitions to help your practice., September 9, 2003

This review is from: Yoga Gems: A Treasury of Practical and Spiritual Wisdom from Ancient and Modern Masters (Paperback)

If you were looking for poses and technique of yoga, you will not find it in this book. Yoga Gems is not an instructional book on yoga. The Book defines yoga as a spiritual endeviour that should relate to all aspects of life and the human experience. The book is offers short reflexions and quotes from yoga masters that can be applicable to life in general, not just yoga practice. It makes a great read just before bedtime as each short topic leave you a sense of peace and can be pick up again anywhere, depending on how you feel.

I love this book. I have bought it as a gift for every friend I have. Often people want to know why I love Yoga so much-and I give them this book. It is the essence of yoga, far beyond the exercise so many think it is. Heart and soul, wonderful expressions of some of the most noted Yoga master.
