Produktbeschreibung
Ananda Yoga for Higher Awareness was first published by Swami Kriyananda in the 1960s to raise the awareness of yoga practitioners and to offer them a new dimension to their practice: the use of a positive affirmation to go with each pose. This classic yoga guide can be useful for hatha yogis (and especially for those who practice Ananda Yoga®) as a resource for deepening their understanding of the original, spiritual approach to yoga postures, as well as Swami Kriyananda's inspiration in creating the popular branch of hatha yoga known as Ananda Yoga®. This book does not offer complete detailed instruction in physical alignment for assuming each pose. If you are seeking alignment instructions for yoga postures, we highly recommend Spiritual Yoga by Gyandev McCord, for which this book is a valuable companion title. Kriyananda brings the yoga science back to its central focus as an integral part of the meditative science of Raja Yoga. His approach is in the tradition of the ancient hatha yoga and of his own guru, the great Indian master Paramhansa Yogananda, author of the most widely read and respected of all books on yoga, Autobiography of a Yogi. THIS UNIQUE CLASSIC teaches hatha yoga as it was originally intended: as a way to uplift your consciousness and aid your spiritual development. Kriyananda's inspiring affirmations and clearly written instructions show you how to attune yourself to the consciousness of each pose, so that each yoga posture becomes a doorway to life-affirming attitudes, clarity of understanding, and an increasingly centered and uplifted awareness. Illustrated with photographs of the postures, this authentic "awareness approach" adds an important dimension for advanced practitioners, while providing an excellent foundation for beginners. ¿ Become aware of the energy flows in your body and their effects on your attitudes and outlook ¿ Achieve harmony of body, mind, and soul ¿ Cultivate attitudes of willingness, appreciation, kindness, and joy ¿ Enjoy a greater sense of radiant health and well-being ¿ Increase your self-control ¿ Achieve a richer, more harmonious emotional life ¿ Deepen your inner awareness
Autorenporträt
One of the foremost spiritual teachers of Yoga principles in the world. In 1948, at the age of twenty-two, he became a disciple of the Indian yoga master and world teacher, Paramhansa Yogananda (author of the classic, Autobiography of a Yogi). At Yogananda's request, Swami Kriyananda devoted his life to teaching and writing, and helping others to experience the joy and living presence of God within. Over the course of more than sixty years, he lectured on four continents in seven languages. His television programs, audio and video recordings of his talks and music, and his many books in twenty-eight languages have touched the lives of millions.Swami Kriyananda took the ancient teachings of Raja Yoga and made them intensely practical and immediately useful for people in every walk of life, on a daily basis. His books and teachings cover nearly every field of human endeavor, including spiritualizing business life, leadership, education, the arts, community life, and science. He wrote extensive commentaries on the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita.Swami Kriyananda was also known as the "father of the intentional communities movement," which began in the United States in the late 1960s. Inspired by his guru's dream of establishing spiritual communities, in 1968 he founded the first of what are now ten Ananda communities worldwide. They provide a supportive environment of "simple living and high thinking," where a thousand full-time residents live, work, and worship together. "The time has come for people to live lives of even higher dedication than that which inspired monks and nuns of the past.¿.¿.¿. The time has come for people to direct their spiritual awareness also downward into matter¿.¿.¿.¿to everything they do: their work, to education, to family life, to friendship, to their communications with strangers, to the way they build their homes¿-¿to all the most mundane, practical aspects of daily, human life.
