The Yoga of Spiritual Devotion by Prem Prakash

The Yoga of Spiritual Devotion by Prem Prakash

The first translation of this great but little-known path of spiritual devotion written for the modern Western audience.
An insightful commentary aimed at making the path of love immediately accessible to Westerners.
A life-affirming and relationship-positive path of yoga.
Written in the spirit of the kirtans (ecstatic songs and dances) of Narada, sensitively translated by Prem Prakash.
Bhakti Yoga, the path of devotion, is considered one of the primary paths for spiritual realization in yogic tradition. Its representative, Narada, is the embodiment of the enlightened sage who travels the universe spreading his sacred teachings. Unlike Jnana Yoga, the Yoga of Wisdom, the bhakti acolyte does not discriminate against material phenomena--for him, all phenomena are aspects of God. Within the context of Ananda, blissful love, the temporal is realized as the reflection of the eternal, and the soul is realized as the expression of God.

PREM PRAKASH, a veteran Indian journalist, has
reported on major events in the Indian subcontinent
from the '50s to the turn of the century. He has
worked with foreign broadcasters-like Gaumont
Actualitü¾Ž–”¼s in France, Deutsche Wochenschau in
Germany and Warner-Pathü¾Ž–”¼ News in the US-who
were the pioneers of their time. In 1957, he was part of a group that launched the news agency Visnews in London.

He has covered some of the most important
stories of post-Independence India, including the
1962 Indo-China war. He was at the forefront of
war coverage during the 1965 war against Pakistan,
climbing Haji Pir with the Indian Army and covering
the tank battle in the Sialkot sector, conducted by
General Rajinder Singh 'Sparrow' himself.

Prakash has interacted with every prime minister
of India and interviewed many of them on camera.
He is currently the chairman of ANI, India's premier
multimedia news agency, which he helped set up.
