Royal Yoga: Insights into the Eightfold Path of Raja Yoga (Foreword by David Frawley)

Description

Royal Yoga offers a clear and systematic exploration of Raja Yoga as outlined in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. Based on a series of lectures delivered between 2020 and 2021, the book presents the eightfold path (Ashtanga Yoga)-from ethical foundations to meditative absorption as a practical framework for cultivating inner clarity and self-awareness. Rather than portraying yoga as a set of external techniques, the author emphasizes its deeper psychological and spiritual dimensions, rooted in silence, discipline, and insight.

Drawing on classical teachings and personal experience, the book bridges the timeless wisdom of the Yoga tradition with contemporary perspectives. In his foreword, Dr. David Frawley (Pandit Vamadeva Shastri) writes: “This is one of the most experiential and authentic commentaries on the Yoga Sutras in recent decades. It corrects many modern misunderstandings while staying rooted in yogic practice.”
