A prolific writer, he produced over 100 books on various subjects during his lifetime. This particular volume deals with Hatha yoga, which refers to any kind of yoga where poses are practiced The word Hatha comes from the Sanskrit word for ‘Forceful’ and represents a system of physical techniques. This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in yoga and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: What is Hatha Yoga?, The Yogis Regard for the Physical Body, The Work of the Divine Architect, Our Friend, the Vital Force, The Laboratory of the Body, The Life Fluid, The Crematory of the System, Nourishment, Hunger vs. Appetite, Prana Absorption from Food, About Food, The Irrigation of the Body, The Ashes of the System, Yogi Breathing, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
