Yoga, Tantra & Eastern Mysticism

The Integrity of the Yoga Darsana

by Ian Whicher

A philosophical study of Patanjali's Yoga that argues against reading its goal as a world-denying isolation. Whicher offers a close reading of key concepts such as nirodha, samadhi and kaivalya and situates classical Yoga within Indian thought.
