Series of Lessons in Raja Yoga

Meer over het boek

In India, candidates seeking initiation into "Raja Yoga" approach Yogi Masters for a series of lessons aimed at enlightening them about the Real Self and imparting secret knowledge necessary for realizing their true identity. They learn to discard misconceptions about themselves. Until candidates grasp this instruction and awaken to their Actual Identity, further teachings are withheld, as true understanding of their power and the Will—central to "Raja Yoga"—remains elusive. The Yogi Masters identify two levels of awakening to the Real Self. The first, "the Consciousness of the 'I'," represents the realization of one's existence as an entity independent of the physical body, which continues beyond bodily destruction. The second, "the Consciousness of the 'I AM'," signifies awareness of one's connection to Universal Life and all existence, both expressed and unexpressed. These levels of consciousness unfold over time for those who pursue "The Path," sometimes suddenly, other times gradually, often supported by "Raja Yoga" practices. An affirmation encourages individuals to recognize their soul's communication channels, develop their senses, and remain receptive to knowledge, embracing the Universe as their home to explore.
