El Yoga de la disciplina

by Gurumayi Chidvilasananda

Gurumayi Chidvilasananda, Maestra de meditación y cabeza espiritual del sendero de Siddha Yoga, ofrece en esta colección de charlas una enseñanza esencial del linaje de Siddha Yoga:
La disciplina te da libertad total; te permite ir más allá de las limitaciones, traspasar las fronteras y alcanzar la meta más elevada. El camino de la disciplina no sólo salvará la vida de una persona, también le dará significado. ¿Cómo? Al mostrarle más profundas alegrías y más profundos anhelos, al crear un silencio donde pueda escucharse el murmullo del corazón.
En verdad, la disciplina es el camino hacia la liberación.

Sometimes I come across a book that simply changes my life. This book changed mine. A big fan of yoga, I've read so, so many books on the subject. This book, however, on the issue of discipline, really puts the reins in our hands and gives us direction and understanding. Sadly I find in my own case, and possibly the same is true for you, discipline is rarely taught or encouraged. The wisdom and sound reasons for living with discipline becomes a basis for inspired living through the contents of this book Almost artfully presented, this little book is a gem.

She makes discipline feel good and worthwhile.

Since I am probably the least self-disciplined person I know, I'm excited about the possibilities this book has to offer !

Beautiful discussion of bringing your consciousness into joyous discipline. I reread this book about once a year.

I imagine this is one I'll return to.

I read this book years ago when I first started yoga- asana practice. Now 30 plus years on, the teachings found in this book still resonate but more profoundly.
I gave my hardback copy away. Now I’ll have it to read again as an e-book.

The book has a lot of good thoughts like control on desire and senses, and moderation. But also a lot of illogical and outdated ideas like chanting, mantras and God. Some examples and analogies made sense, others not so much. In the end it was a drag.

I've thought of the discipline of my senses each day since beginning this book. How Discipline gives you Freedom. Good perspective overall. As all Yoga books, gives insight into our daily lives and how to live 'better'.

[Lauren Wall · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book makes you just want to be better. No force, no pressure. It just all makes sense to better yourself.

Espiritualidad, dominio de sí mismo, Filosofía de Vida...
Este libro me deja muchas interrogantes. Por su complejidad, me obliga a reflexionar.
Me propongo leerlo nuevamente para profundizar en los mensajes y darle más sentido a las palabras.
Un texto para consultarse con frecuencia, para vivirlo y hacerlo tuyo...
¡¡¡¡Me encantó!!!!

Full of great insight explained in a way that really resonates with me. References many classic yoga texts with contemporary application. This is one I'll keep on the shelf for reference time and time again.

I, for one, need more discipline in my life. I find Yoga an empowering form of exercise and strength. Beautiful book.
