About
Based on the classical teachings of Yoga philosophy and wisdom, this book illuminates what will be most supportive in order to reach your potential in all aspects of your life. In this mini-book, part of the Peter Max Cover Art Series, Sri Swami Satchidananda focuses on how we can reach our health, wellness, and happiness potential, as well as how to cultivate self-mastery. Through the Yoga practices, he shows how we can activate our potential through Hatha Yoga, self-healing, and meditation practices and then how we can extend the benefits in our relationships and in building a better world. He also addresses how Yoga enables us to reach the "great goal," often referred to as Self-realization or nirvana.
"Reach your potential. How? Become liberated from all that binds you. How to do that? By gaining self-mastery. You will enjoy the world when you know how to handle it well, when you become the master of it. In that way, you will free yourself from misery, suffering, and unhappiness. This is the aim of Yoga." -Swami Satchidananda Sri Swami Satchidananda was one of the first Yoga masters to bring the classical Yoga tradition to the West. He was invited to America in 1966 by the iconic pop artist Peter Max and in 1969 opened the Woodstock Festival, becoming known as "the Woodstock Guru." His distinctive teachings blend six branches of classical Yoga, the spiritual philosophy of Vedanta (nonduality), and the interfaith ideals he pioneered. These concepts and practices influenced a generation and a spawned Yoga culture that is flourishing today. The organizations founded on his teachings, Integral Yoga International and Satchidananda Ashram–Yogaville, are leading centers for Yoga teacher certification. Integral Yoga is the foundation for Dr. Dean Ornish's landmark work in reversing heart disease and Dr. Michael Lerner's noted Commonweal Cancer Help program. He is the author of many books on Yoga and is the subject of the documentary, Living Yoga: The Life and Teachings of Swami Satchidananda.
