Later he had the good fortune to study with Swami Veda Bharati a great teacher in the Himalayan Yoga Meditation Tradition.

It gently guides the reader along an inner journey that points the way to this special place. Along the way it raises existential questions that we sometimes ponder-the same questions that people have been asking themselves over many centuries. And no this little book does not attempt to give us answers to those perennial questions but instead it guides us along the path toward discovering answers for ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePathways to Self-Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e makes it clear that finding inner peace is an individual journey and offers the reader tools to find it for him or her self. Rather than providing formulas or prescriptions the author teases us by alluding to the benefits that can be found at each stage of the quest. Descriptions of these benefits-for example cultivating a pleasant ('\u003ci\u003esaumya\u003c\/i\u003e') mind or discovering your own wisdom-provide an incentive to follow the path of self-discovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe author draws on age-old principles of yoga and presents them in a form which the reader can readily apply and practice akin to serving them up on a platter so you can sample them for yourself. I would liken this book to a small jewel.\" -\u003cstrong\u003e Sandra Uyterhoeven Yoga Teacher and Yoga Therapist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Itasca Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54526315069715,"sku":"9781934690840","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/3521\/2563\/files\/img_proxy_e2702612-7692-4837-8999-bd262e3d924c.jpg?v=1785850587","url":"https:\/\/danuc.net\/products\/pathways-to-self-awareness","provider":"Danu's Wardrobe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
