About Raja Yoga & Bhakti Book

A key figure in the revival of Hinduism in India, and instrumental in introducing Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world, Swami Vivekananda achieved more in his short 39 years than most could possibly achieve in two life-times. Vivekananda promoted the science of religion, the common threads of spirituality that run through almost all traditional religions that, despite dogmatic and ritual differences, hold the key to enlightenment. This volume contains two of his most famous and studied works. Raja Yoga (literally royal yoga ) is his instructional manual on the mechanics of spirituality, focusing on meditation and mental control. Bhakti Yoga ( devotional yoga ) is, as Vivekananda himself puts it, a real, genuine search after the Lord, a search beginning, continuing, and ending in Love. Bhakti Yoga emphasizes practice over ritual. It contains an extensive glossary of Hindu and Buddhist terms.
