ADVANCED COURSE IN YOGI PHILOSOPHY is a continuation of the classic, Fourteen Lessons in Yogi Philosophy. It should be read after one has read the Fourteen Lessons since many concepts are introduced in the first book. Both books were written 120 years ago yet they remain the best introduction to yogi philosophy for a Western audience. The Advanced Course delves deeper into Indian philosophy and explores some of humanitys perennial questions. The lessons of the course are written in a simple, charming, and straightforward style. Some of the subjects explored in the book: The three main paths of yoga: Karma, Gnani, and Bhakti; Spiritual consciousness; Yogi Ethics (Dharma); The relationship between Matter, Energy, Mind, and Spirit; The Absolute and Man; The Riddle of the Universe. Republished by Bamboo Leaf Press, this new modern edition includes a foreword by Richard Rosen, the renowned yoga teacher and writer. The printing is of the highest quality and has a stitch-binding that allows you to open the book flat on a desk without the pages falling out while reading. You are the most precious thing -- a living soul -- and if you were destroyed the whole system of universes would crumble, for you are as necessary as the greatest part of it -- it cannot do without you -- you cannot be lost or destroyed -- you are part of it all, and are eternal.
