About the Book:

Kriyas are the constructive actions we implement to contribute to our total wellness and enlightenment, as well as the transformation actions which spontaneously occur within us as spiritual growth is experienced. Yoga can be defined as "procedure," as "practice", and as the end result of successful practice - "wholeness"
After presenting an overview of philosophical principles, the focus is the author's comprehensive commentary on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras (circa 200 CE, perhaps older). This is presented in four stages: concentration and superconscious states; intentional practices; awakened soul abilities; and liberation consciousness.
The last section of the book provides guidelines to recommended lifestyle regimens and instruction in meditation techniques and practice routines. Biographical information about the guru lineage of Mr. Davis' Kriya Yoga tradition is provided in the appendix. A glossary of primary English and Sanskrit words is included.
