I didn't find this particular book very informative or "inspiring" as it claims to be. There are some good quotes in there, but those come from the Bhagavad Gita, so you should read that one instead. The rest of the quotes are very weird and complicated and don't even invite the reader to dwell in them. A poorly executed daily inspirational book.

I want a copy of this to own. Very nice book. I borrowed it by accident and it was a nice surprise.

Quick takeaway: I wanted to like it, but it's randomly assorted. You can't even use the word organized, other than it has 365 "meditations." This was another online purchase that was a disappointment. How did this get published?

Full of different bits of yogic wisdom for every day; good for yogis wanting to expland their at-home practice but needing a bit of guidance.

If you already know something about yoga and Eastern religious traditions, this book is useful for "Daily Meditations" (its subtitle). For others, some background reading in the subjects I mention would be better to read before reading this book.

this book is a compilation of small thoughts and quotes so it is not a real book and as much as it is peaceful and somewhat helpful, it is rather boring to read...
