Buddhist Yoga, translated by Thomas Cleary
Buddhist Yoga, translated by Thomas Cleary
Our Price: $18.95

The word yoga has many meanings, including "meditation," "method," and "union."

The study of this scripture is essential preparation for anyone undertaking meditation exercise. Linking theory and praxis, the scripture offers a remarkably detailed and thorough course of study in both the philosophical and pragmatic foundation of Buddhist yoga, and their perfect, harmonious union in the realization of Buddhist enlightenment. more info
