World's one of the most famous yoga is coherently manifested in this- possibly a most underrated book called zen - yoga by PJ seher.
A simple step by step book showing complete knowledge of archaic yoga practices.
Not only yoga but spiritual dynamics of the human brain that man had never tried or able to understand clearly explained in this book.
Pj seher, a yogi and an author with his accumulated Vedic knowledge reveal the curtain behind the wisdom, knowledge and discipline practised by great ancient Hindu sages.
Did homo sapiens are properly and correctly evolving or have been evolved? Or evolution has become the process of mere accumulation or collection of material knowledge?
Indeed humans have given a gift of free will but is this free will efficiently be utilised?
Till now 99% of the humans, sages are doing it wrong-the process of breathing and meditation.
A human can achieve wisdom and knowledge by using his gifted free will where it should be used.
By following zen yoga, corrective breathing practices, proper sleep and food intake( as explained in the book) one can truly achieve salvation.
Mr seher further explains the science behind how spiritual mind works, that contains four basic Department responsible for their respective work( as explained in the book).
This is more of a spiritual guide based on Hindu Patanjali and Buddhism yoga sutra. The eightfold yoga system that is followed by swami Vivekanand, swami Yogananda and perhaps by Christ and Mohammad, clearly explained in the book.
The science behind how humans thoughts received and decoded by The brain in the form of impulses and how yoga and thought impulses are correlated, the relationship between resultant intensity and planets of solar system( Astrology) revelation has been done by Mr seher.
Humans are material objects but abode and made up of with one energy, which can not be destroyed but take other forms after euthanasia. Humans are humans because not of an unplanned creationist(god), who make humans ended up in This planet earth, but because of our free will have never utilised in clearing the bondage with materialism at the same time never attaching with spirituality.
Through yoga, one can unveil the secrets of creation and destroy the karmic cycle of birth and rebirth hence ultimately merge with the creator.

Reading it 2 times is a must. A good book to clear out the mystery portion of our spiritual journey

A great concept and starts off with a very different and interesting premise of how the mind is divided into multiple sections and how exactly each section works, and is ideally supposed to work, in order to reach its full potential. The author also shares practical exercises on how one can attain 'godliness' by using the complete potential of mind, which is helpful since these aren't very complicated.
However, after about a half of the book, things start sounding a bit too fantastical and far-fetched to be true.
Maybe once I start practicing the exercises mentioned in the book, I'll revisit this review and (hopefully) increase the rating. But on the basis of my first read, I found it a slightly above average read overall. But a recomended one, nevertheless.

August 9, 2024P.J. Saher’s Zen-Yoga: A Creative Psychotherapy to Self-Integration is a profound exploration of the intersection between Eastern mindfulness practices and Western therapeutic techniques. This groundbreaking work transcends traditional boundaries, offering readers a transformative approach to self-discovery and personal growth.
Saher masterfully integrates Zen principles with the therapeutic modalities of yoga, creating a unique framework that promotes holistic healing. The book delves into the philosophy of Zen, illustrating how its ancient wisdom can be applied to modern psychological practices. Saher's writing is both insightful and accessible, making complex concepts relatable to readers from all backgrounds.
One of the book’s standout features is its practical approach. Saher provides a series of exercises and practices designed to help individuals cultivate mindfulness, manage stress, and achieve greater self-awareness. Each chapter is rich with actionable strategies, enabling readers to apply the principles directly to their own lives.
The text is also peppered with real-life case studies and personal anecdotes that add depth and authenticity to the theoretical discussions. These stories illustrate the profound impact of combining Zen and yoga practices with psychotherapy, offering compelling evidence of their effectiveness in fostering personal transformation.
Visually, the book is beautifully crafted, with an elegant hardcover design that complements its content. The layout is user-friendly, with clear headings and well-organized sections that facilitate an engaging reading experience.
Personally I've read it more times than I can remember, and it still captivates me to this day.

Fav quotes
Nature is a past master at economy. Nature quietly makes man take in with every breath the very essence, take in a ‘something’ more than just oxygen with every breath. In breathing we introduce outside elements into our system. They are impulses reaching our nerve centres within, causing the ‘grey matter’ to give out its reactions.
Practice listening to music played by a good orchestra.
(1) listen only to the principle melody.
(2) listen for a counter-melody and isolate this.
(3) choose one instrument and isolate it, hearing this only.
(4) analyse how the harmony is built up.
Otherwise, Ashish Shukla's videos on ZenYoga, I found more insightful than this semi mathematical textbook.

January 9, 2022Life changing adventure. Every intelligent should read and share such a wonderful book. Even if you
fail to read, however you gift someone this book, you will get blessings from the universe. It is better
to read without missing this opportunity to curtail your future incarnations. Your journey to the GOD will be easy.....Of course first of all you should create little interest in reading......then onward this book will pull you together.......Practice what the book tells you to do.....otherwise you will miss the train. Automatically all the negativity will disappear.....You will always remain positive all the time.

December 12, 2020The book is too deep, also the writer of the book recommends to read the book the twice.
The book explains the scientific proof of the yoga and simple practice which we do incorrectly.
Also the book is research based, while reading this book you'll get to know the vibrational intensity of body and derivative functions used to calculate and proof daily life.
