Dr David Frawley’s book ‘Yoga : Beyond Body & Mind’ published

New Delhi – Renowned Vedic scholar and global authority on Indian philosophy, Dr David Frawley (also known as Vamadeva Shastri), has released his latest book titled ‘Yoga : Beyond Body & Mind’. The book has been published by the prestigious Motilal Banarsidass Publishing House.In this deep and contemplative work, Dr Frawley goes beyond the physical aspect of modern yoga practice to explore its spiritual, psychological, and philosophical dimensions. He challenges the misconception prevalent in the West that yoga is merely a health exercise and asserts that yoga is a profound practice rooted in Sanatan Dharma that leads to self-realisation.

1. In the book, he clearly states that yoga is not merely for physical fitness or mental peace, but a path to self-experience by mastering the body and mind. Yoga, he explains, begins with the body and mind but ultimately leads to the soul.

2. The book also covers related spiritual practices such as pranayam (breath control), mantra chanting, meditation, and Advaita Vedanta, offering readers a complete and deep spiritual perspective.

3. The book has been highly praised by yoga practitioners, researchers, and spiritual seekers worldwide. Dr Frawley states that ‘anyone who wishes to understand the eternal essence of yoga should read this book’.
