Publisher's Synopsis

"Raja Yoga" by Yogi Ramacharaka, a pseudonym for William Walker Atkinson, offers a unique perspective on mental development and spiritual exploration. Despite its title, the book delves into New Thought principles as much as traditional yogic practices. Through meditation, breath retention, and concentration techniques, readers are guided toward the ultimate goal of cosmic absorption.


This work, laden with mental exercises and affirmations, presents a fusion of Western ideas and Hindu philosophy. Atkinson's extensive exploration of science mirrors contemporary New Thought trends that reference quantum physics.


Despite its eclectic nature, readers find immense value in the clarity with which Atkinson explains the processes of the mind. Offering advanced meditation practices, the book provides a roadmap to transcendental states, aligning with the solitary path of spiritual exploration. "Raja Yoga" becomes a beacon for those seeking profound insights into the mind, offering a steady guide for spiritual growth and self-discovery.
