Yoga Sastra; the Yoga Sutras of Patenjali Examined; with a Notice of Swami Vivekananda's Yoga Philosophy by Patanjali Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1897 edition. Excerpt: ...are that it must be done in the open air and by daylight. There must be no rod connecting him with the ground nor any balloon above his head. J. Murdoch. Madeab, October 1896. The Hindu belief in the power of Yoga, mantras, and charms is all a delusion. Hindu Pessimism And False View Op Lifb, It has been shown that the first Sutra of the Sankhya system is that " the complete cessation of pain is the complete end of man." As existence is a curse, this is to be secured by freedom from future births. The Yoga Sastra, and indeed every system of Hindu philosophy, takes a similar gloomy view of life. "To the eulightoued all is misery," says Patanjali (11. 15). Lectures, p. 184, The general belief is that this is the Kali Yuga, succeeding supposed Krita, Treta, and Dwapara Yugas, representing golden, silver, brazen, and iron agos. The doleful account, of the Kali Yuga given in the Vishnu lJurana has been quoted. Among other tilings, "a man will be grey when he is 12, aud no one will exceed 20 years of life." All this only shows the absence of the historical faculty among the Hindus. Like little children, they have accepted the most improbable legends as true. There never was a golden age in India. The earliest inhabitants were savages, ignorant of the metals, who fought with each other and wild beasts with arrows tipped with flint. This is shown by the flint arrow heads which have been dug up all over India, and may be seen in museums. Only very gradually did civilization arise and spread. Even under the most celebrated Hindu sovereigns, as Macaulay says, " We see the multitudes eunlc in brutal ignorance and the studious few engaged in acquiring what did not deserve the name of knowledge." The Brahraans...

Yoga Sastra by John Murdoch Patañjali Pdf

Excerpt from Yoga Sastra: The Yoga Sutras of Patenjali Examined; With a Notice of Swami Vivekananda's Yoga Philosophy It has been the unhappy lot of India to have had for thousands of years a succession of teachers who palmed off their crude ideas as inspired. The result has been, in the words of Sir H. S. Maine, "false morality, false history, false philosophy, false physics." All educated Hindus will admit that the history, geography, and astronomy of the Hindu sacred books are egregiously wrong. In the following pages it is shown that belief in Yoga powers and charms is equally mistaken. Marvellous power may indeed be acquired, but not by Yoga. The reader is advised to follow the course pointed out at page 58. "Awakened India," instead of adopting the Fowl or Tortoise Upset Posture, with his eye fixed on the tip of his nose and seeking "the suppression of the transformations of the thinking principle," should rather endeavour to have his muscles braced like those of Prince Ranjitsinhji, his faculties of observation cultivated like those of Professor Bose, his ability to weigh evidence developed like that of Dr. Bhandarkar. Instead of a dreamy pessimism, let there be active benevolence. Thus would India advance in civilization with a speed before unknown. "Above all, let the deep religious feeling of the Hindu mind be wisely directed. Let the Bhakti Yoga have for its object the loftiest ideal of majesty, wisdom, goodness and purity. Such is the great Creator and Lord of the Universe." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
