Mantra Yoga (Japa Yoga) by Swami Sivananda

The highest goal of Mantra Yoga, as always in yoga, is the realisation of one's true nature, of oneness with the Infinite. Mantra Yoga is considered one of the most powerful, easiest, safest and fastest ways to this self-realisation.

In India it is the most popular and yet most mysterious aspect of yoga, which was and is mostly only passed on orally from teacher to student. There is very little about this important type of yoga in the rich German-language yoga literature. This book (Mantra Yoga) by the Indian master Swami Sivananda fills this gap excellently.

This book describes in easy-to-understand language the tantric theory of sound and mantra, with valuable advice on the use of mantras. The listing of mantras formerly passed on only in oral tradition is unique even in India. Valuable advice on all aspects of spiritual life completes the picture.
