Fourteen Lessons in Yogi Philosophy and Oriental Occultism

The Yoga Series seriesNext:Raja Yoga or Mental Development(1906) →

An elementary introduction to the principles of yogi philosophy and oriental occultism, arranged as a sequence of fourteen lessons for the beginner. The teacher sets out basic ideas about the inner life, the powers of the mind and the discipline needed to pursue them. The lessons are written in plain language, with no preface from the author, so the teachings themselves carry the argument. Each lesson builds on the one before, moving gently from first principles toward more practical application.
