Yoga in the Gospels

This book brings together the author's lifelong interest in relationship between Christianity and yoga, using the structure of the four forms of yoga as a framework – bhakti, raja, karma and jnana. It is designed as a source of readings and inspiration, using quotations from the Gospels and from classic yoga texts such as Patanjali, Shankara, the Bhagavad-Gita as well as Christian mystics such as Julian of Norwich and Meister Eckhart. The emphasis is practical in terms of developing spiritual and ethical qualities while giving insight into the deeper meaning and connection between the texts. As such, it also gives guidance for life and universal inner development, bringing together metaphysics and ethics.
