Vasistha’s Yoga - highly useful for understanding and transcending psychological conditioning, using mind to master mind.

Early books: Arrow to the Sun and Grimm’s Fairy Tales and Hans Christian Andersen and The Hobbit - all very stimulating to imagination.

Just a PSA;

"Yoga Vasistha" has nothing to do with the physical aspects of Yoga i.e. Asanas (though some passages do talk about them) but deals purely with the internal/intellectual aspects of the mind. It is a very long book with lots of Allegories/Similes/Stories/Repetition and so you have to read it slowly and with patience.

I recommend reading "The Concise Yoga Vasistha" (an abridged version) before reading the unabridged "Vasistha's Yoga" both translated by Swami Venkatesananda.

Sounds good? Thanks for a heads up! :)
