Hardback. Condición: Fair. It was an era when the wisdom of yoga had been buried under years of ritual practices, when religion outweighed human values, when games were becoming wars and wars were being played like games. It was at such time that, in a quaint village in South India, a small child was found in deep meditation. He would say, 'I have family everywhere. People are waiting for me'. Nobody believed him then. Time would reveal the destiny of the millions who would come to him to discover themselves. Over the years, his sublime presence and pragmatic teachings would make the ethereal tangible, the Sudarshan Kriya a household practice, and inspire people to seek a higher purpose in life. He would teach the values of joy, peace and love towards people and the world. From unassuming boy to a teenager in the company of saints, from a young meditation teacher to a revered spiritual Master, this book is a peek into the life of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, who brought about a profound shift in every sphere of human endeavour - from art to architecture, health care to rehabilitation, inner peace to outer dynamism.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. With more and more people realizing the need to exercise, gyms are cropping up at every nook and corner, roads are occupied by recreational runners and yoga schools have an enviable waiting list.

So whether you are a beginner or want to take your workouts to the next level, the sample training schedules and real life workout examples with analysis and modifications will bridge the gap between knowing and doing and ensure that you are in a position to start and/or progress with a sensible, doable and a wholesome exercise plan.…
