Since ancient times scriptural wisdom has been the polestar of humankind. Scriptural verses are self-revealing and illuminating, each one like a multifaceted crystal, shimmering with beauty when held to the sun.

Those who know and understand these truths are the realized saints and sages. They are the sun that reveals the true beauty of the crystal.

When describing the Torah, Paramahamsa Prajnanananda has said, “The Torah is a treasure trove of wisdom, but one must know how to extract its riches.” From a Yogi’s Perspective, we are given a glimpse of the hidden treasures found in the Torah.

To be victorious on the spiritual path, we must overcome the obstacles that prevent us from realizing our true potential. Most of us perceive that obstacles stem from difficult circumstances or people, but a yogi perceives things differently. A yogi knows that the source of every obstacle is rooted in our own thoughts and feelings. To achieve spiritual growth and win the sacred battle of life, we must make every effort to identify our inner obstacles and vanquish them.

This book teaches us the practical skills we need to conquer these obstacles that bind us; to be free.
