Very good foundation for building up your yoga practiceAlan Finger truly sounds like a yoga guru.
In this book, he provides guidance and direction in performing basic yoga poses and reveals their relation to the human chakras. This, in my opinion, is very important in getting your foundation straight & solid, so it can safely be built upon.
The book is written well, without bogging you down with excess theory or pages of boring information, yet neatly introducing useful concepts. The author goes into great detail in explaining how to correctly do a certain pose, and points out common mistakes. I have found it very helpful. The brief real-life examples of balances and imbalances in chakras are also quite interesting.
Lastly, the spiritual part of the book: meditation. I was quite a novice to the whole practice of meditation prior to reading this book. So no surprise, as I tried, I did not always feel like I was entering "the state of oneness, yoga", and at times I couldn't even let go of restless thoughts. But it improves with time and practice. And Alan Finger emphasizes it - practice consistently, in order to get results. I would probably also play some quiet meditation music while listening to the book's audio, as it comes without background music.
I do recommend this book to all who are seeking another dimension in their lives. It will not only help you become better at your yoga practice, but may as well help you make a shift towards a better life and being a better person.

Yogic ChristianityThis book has built a wonderful bridge for me between Christianity and eastern mysticism. I was a Christian fundamentalist for many years and studied the Bible and church history deeply. When my faith in fundamentalism faded I was attracted to eastern religions, and finally connected with Buddhism. This book was able to open for me the importance of the Christian teachings of love and how they are needed in Buddhism, Hinduism, and Yoga. It also shows how Christians could benefit from the discipline of eastern spiritual practices and especially meditation. The author proposes inter spirituality, not combining two religions but being both fully a Christian and fully Hindu. Not picking and choosing from a buffet bar what you like, but more like speaking two languages where you do both correctly and benefit from both. Practicing in a way where both traditions want to claim you as their own.
The author Russill Paul was born in his native India into a Catholic Family. He grew up with Hindu influences. He felt compelled to enter a Benedictine ashram early in his life and studied under the renowned sage and mystic Bede Griffiths where he studied Christianity and eastern practices side by side. Mr. Paul believes the world's religions are all needed and compliment each other but no single one is the whole picture. It is time for all religions to open their heart, minds, and spirit to the truth that they collectedly posses. This book is an excellent place to start on this path to inter spiritual connectedness.
