Summary
Before yoga became exercise it was an inner science, a precise map of the body, the breath and the mind, leading all the way to liberation. The Inner Science lays out that map, drawn from the Sanskrit sources.
In twenty-nine chapters, Rob Newton begins with what yoga is and who the seeker is, then moves through the cosmologies of Purusha and Prakriti and of Shiva and Shakti, the three bodies and five sheaths, and the eight limbs: ethics, posture, pranayama and the eight kumbhakas. He explains prana, the vayus and the nadis, the chakras and kundalini as the primary texts describe them, mudras and bandhas, the Trika cosmology and recognition. The book closes with the inward turn, concentration and meditation, the stages of samadhi, kaivalya, turiya and natural samadhi.
Each teaching is explained plainly and written to be practised, not only studied.
