Yoga: A Beginner’s Guide; Georg & Brenda Feuerstein, Jaico, Rs.199.
In part one of this book, the authors establish the substructure of Yoga, with short essays that cover basic principles: the meaning of Yoga, the practice, the types, the deeper commitment and levels. In part two, they address 30 of the most widely-asked questions by newcomers to this path. This book will give any practitioners a more direct understanding of the issues involved in adopting Yoga as a practice, a lifestyle and spiritual philosophy.
A Field Guide to Happiness; Linda Leaming, Hay House, Rs.299.
Linda Leaming travelled from Nashville, Tennessee, to the rugged Himalayan nation of Bhutan to teach English and unlearn her politicised and polarised, energetic and impatient way of life. She now practises the art of “simulating Bhutan” in America. This collection of stories, impressions, and suggestions is a leg up into the rarefied air of paradise — of bright sunlight and beautiful views.
