Surat Shabd Yoga
The Yoga of the Celestial Sound Current is a perfect science; it is free from the drawbacks of other yogic forms. Emphasis is placed on the need for a competent living Master. This book is an excerpt from the larger The Crown of Life, and is an excellent short but complete explanation of the Path of the Masters. Also includes a brief life sketch of Sant Kirpal Singh.

A lot of "you should do this" "you shouldn't do that", but no actual information in this book about working with the sound current (/Surat Shabd Yoga/Naad). The very basics of clean body/clean mind is presented in list format and is about 95% of the content of this short text. A disappointment.
