The Science of Yoga According to Lord Dattatreya

The science of Yoga according to Lord Dattatreya is a compendium of the Yogic practices followed during the ancient times. This book is in the form of a dialogue between Lord Dattatreya and a seeker named Sankriti. A brief description of different paths viz.; Hatha, Laya, Mantra and Raja Yoga is given in this book. However the practices of Hatha Yoga are emphasized more. Lord Dattatreya is considered to be the incarnation of three divinities viz.; Brahma, Vishnu and Siva. He is a great Yogi and believed that he taught the knowledge of ‘Sri Vidya’ to Lord Parasurama. For the followers of the paths of Siddha and Avadutha, he is the Supreme Master. The various sadhana paths briefly explained in this book have to be learned from a competent Guru as it is not possible to explain all hidden meaning in a book. We feel our efforts are not in vain if this little book makes the reader practice Yoga diligently.
