The Science of Pranayama
It is needless for us to stress on the merits of the subject or its author, Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj. Sri Swamiji already lives in the hearts of the people of the world as an ‘unfailing saviour’. The Swamiji’s method of presenting such intricate Yogic subjects in an inimitable, simple style with convincing assurances in unique and unrivalled. It is authoritative, the more so, because of Swamiji being a combination of an experienced medical practitioner, a full-blown Yogi and a Jivanmukta.
The practice of Pranayama has been viewed with fear in certain quarters on account of certain limitations, viz., the absolute necessity of the nearness to a perfected Guru, the dietetic restrictions and the like. Sri Swamiji has explained herein in clear terms the vagaries of such fears and has prescribed very simple and safe methods. The book contains suitable lessons for all types of Sadhakas. Those who follow the special instructions given towards the end of the book can be sure of their guaranteed success and safety.
Pranayama is an important Anga in Ashtanga Yoga. It is equally necessary for all in their daily life, for good health, success and prosperity in every walk of life. How it is so, is explained in these pages. The science of relaxation is a very valuable gift for the readers and would benefit all.
We are greatly encouraged by the warm reception the previous editions had at the hands of our dear readers and we hope more and more Sadhakas would take up this important aspect of Sadhana in their daily spiritual practices, and feel for themselves the happiness and joy which will naturally lead them to blissful ‘Divine Life’.
