Summary

Description

In "The Yoga of Jesus" a selection of material from his highly praised two volume work, "The Second Coming of Christ: The Resurrection of the Christ Within You", this concise book confirms that Jesus, like the ancient sages and masters of the East, not only knew the principles of yoga but taught this universal science of God-realisation to his disciples. Yogananda, who is widely recognised as the father of yoga in the West, explores the role of Jesus as yogi and avatar (divine incarnation). He removes the centuries of dogma and misunderstanding that obscure Christ's original teachings, and shows that Jesus' message is not about sectarian divisiveness, but a unifying path by which seekers of all faith traditions can enter the kingdom of God.
