This is a book for timeless wisdom, transmitted by one of the great teachers of the age. It has the power to make people happy in moments of sadness, and to lift their spirits in times of depression. It is a powerful tool to clean the subconscious mind and to replace negative thought patterns with positive ones. Its inner secret is the power of the spoken word - the most wonderful gift given to human beings. Through it relationships are made and broken, knowledge is transmitted, and consciousness is changed. When you speak, the sound and rhythm of your words express your state of consciousness. When you repeat out loud the words of enlightened human beings, you enlighten your own consciousness - just by repeating them!
The Teachings of Yogi Bhajan is a practical demonstration of the power of the spoken word to teach and enlighten. Read his words on Love, Happiness, God, Mind and Relationships - your view of the Universe will never be the same. Read 9 to 11 pages aloud - and experience your own inner transformation.
A wonderfully written example of the Yoga of the Spoken Word or Sound (Naad), this book keeps alie the legacy of the beloved Yogi Bhajan. The aphorisms and profound inner wisdom revealed in Yogiji's teaches are something I find very useful. The book has been criticised by some for not recognising alternative paths of spirituality, but I did not find that to be troublesome.
Yogiji speaks with authority on Kundalini Yoga. Why would he divert his effort to areas in which he could not present a masterful insight into this important tool for increasing one's awareness, one's spiritual practice and one's life. Cutting through the excuses, the bullshit and the whining that one often tries to use as a crutch, Yogi Bhajan speaks to the core of each reader, and if they allow for it, can truly help increase one's understanding of this powerful yogic practice.
Yogi Bhajan delivers a mixed bag of lies, half-truths, psuedo-Sikhism, yogic philosophy and plenty of Trumpian style banter, all woven together in the pursuit of power and profits. At best, this book is a relevant reference in the study of cults. Please research the corruption and allegations against Yogi Bhajan before welcoming his teachings into your life.
Yogi Bhajan was truly a man of God, in the most non-religious sense. I am very thankful for his words of wisdom, his way of life & his ideologies being passed on to the Western world. Kundalini yoga is literally life altering.
