Yet  as diverse as they seem  they share a common aim: the discovery of the essence of existence that can be found at the core of our being  and the liberation that comes from that discovery. With this worthy goal in mind  Richard Freeman presents an enlightening overview of the many teachings  practices  and scriptures that serve as the basis for all the schools of yogahatha  bhakti  jnana  karma  tantra  and others. He shows how the myriad forms are ultimately related  and can even be perceived to make up a vast  interpenetrating matrix  symbolizing the unity  profundity  and beauty of the ancient tradition.  Richards wide-ranging discussion includes the Upanisads and Samkhya philosophies  the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali  the eight limbs of astanga yoga  the process and purpose of hatha yoga  and much more. He also explores the role of the guru  chanting  meditation  and the yogic imperative of offering service to others. All of this is applied to the actual practice  giving the reader the tools to digest and apply the wealth of information to daily life. The Mirror of Yoga will be a welcome resource to all yogis who wish to better practice the profound philosophy underlying their practice.
