RAJA YOGA
According to Patanjali, the world famous “father” of Yoga
HATHA YOGA PRADIPIKA
of Svatmarama
This is the Hatha Yoga Bible. It is considered to be one of the ancient fundaments of Raja or
royal Yoga. Up till now the essential knowledge of Sandhya Bhasa, the language of the dawning,
was lacking to translate this Holy Scripture, making it illegible. Together with our book "Atma
Vidya or subtle anatomy”, this spiritual treasure shows you the way to restoration of your health, a
much longer life and maybe even to physical immortality.
