Backing up a few steps
May. 26th, 2018 02:58 pm Trying to get together my thoughts on the subconsciousing lesson, I've come to realize I need to back up to the beginning of A Series of Lessons in Raja Yoga, which is also a sequel to Fourteen Lessons in Yogi Philosophy and Oriental Occultism and Advanced Course in Yogi Philosophy and Oriental Occultism. Since the previous two books are not available on audio* as far as I can tell, I'll need to get to them the old-fashioned way after I draw up all the good stuff from the current book, which does include an entire lesson on attention and one on perception.
* Edited to add: I sit corrected. I have found Fourteen Lessons in audio on YouTube. Listening to this, I now realize I need to back up even further to The [Hindu-Yogi] Science of Breath, which is available on LibriVox. I find it interesting he alludes to "that little book" containing more than meets the eye in light of the Fourteen Lessons. This is like pulling a garlic clove off the head, only to discover it is actually two or three that look like one big one. I'm going to be a little busier than I thought ... gives me something to do while it rains for another week or two.
