Aprašymas

Yoga and Ayurveda are two closely related spiritual or sacred sciences rooted in the Vedic tradition of India. Ayurveda is the Vedic science of healing for both body and mind. Yoga is the Vedic science of Self-realization that depends upon a well-functioning body and mind. Both disciplines developed together and have always been used together. Therefore, those who are interested in one would benefit from studying the other. However, most books on yoga in the West speak little of Ayurveda. Though all ayurvedic books speak of yoga, so far there has been no single book on Ayurveda and yoga published in the West; hence the need of the present publication. Yoga and Ayurveda are far more than physical exercise or bodily healing systems such as we tend to view them today, however important these aspects may be. Both classical yoga and Ayurveda look to the whole human being, which is not only body, but mind and soul. Both address all our needs from physical health and well-being to the unfoldment of our higher consciousness. Therefore, I have oriented this book to the broader view that could be called "integral yoga" and "integral Ayurveda." This is traditionally called pancha kosha yoga and pancha kosha Ayurveda, meaning yoga and Ayurveda of the five sheaths, which refers to the physical body, prana, mind, intelligence, and soul as well as our higher Self. It is also defined as yoga and Ayurveda of the three bodies (physical, astral and causal) or body, mind and soul.
