Yoga Gems
Yoga Gems is a fun inspiring book for any yoga
enthusiast. Filled with snippets of wisdom and interesting quotes from ancient
and modern yoga masters. According to editor Georg Feuerstein, "Yoga's
five-thousand
year old heritage contains incredible nuggets of spiritual and psychological
insight, which Yoga Gems seeks to make available through simple but
profound quotations".
Among the many themes touched on in the book are:
the process of inner growth, the value of silence, how to infuse life with joy,
universal kinship, overcoming suffering and grief, and bringing out the best
that is inside us all. It is a great book to take as a travel companion or leave
by the bed for a few beautiful thoughts before sleep.
Today's foremost yoga researcher, Georg Feuerstein,

Yoga Research Center, he is a contributing editor of Yoga Journal, Inner
Directions and Intuition. |
