It is said in the practice of Vedanta that we have a right to work, but don't have a right to the results of our actions. We have to work as hard as we can, give the work our best quality effort, then step back and let the results take care of themselves. Or in the practice of yoga, offer the results to God.Work purifies the soul. This concept is a bit different than many of us have been taught in the West, but the book offers an interesting approach that can save us from a lot of misery and bring us closer to God. In fact, you don't even need to believe in God to practice this yoga.

Editorial Reviews

Review

His words are great music, phrases in the style of Beethoven, stirring rhythms like the march of Handel choruses. I cannot touch these sayings of his, scattered as they are through the pages of books at thirty years' distance, without receiving a thrill through my body like an electric shock. And what shocks, what transports must have been produced when in burning words they issued from the lips of a hero. --Romain Rolland, famed 19th-century author

From the Author

The author founded the Vedanta movement in America in 1893. He is regarded as a great patriot-saint in modern India.

I learned so much from this book. It arguably changed my life - for the better. If you are interested in learning more about yoga this is a decent place to start. It is a short text dense with wisdom.

What can me a mere mortal say about such mastery. I know Swami Vivekananda says we are already immortal but even so a l have to admit that I have "Miles to Go, before I sleep" to reach that state the Swami is talking about. An awesome book!
