Self-Development Based on the Spiritual Teachings of Yoga

by Gudjon Bergmann

"Self-Development based on the Spiritual Teachings of Yoga" is book is about two things. How you can unveil the ultimate Self or spirit within; and how you can balance and develop the relative self, including your character and personality. It builds on the strong foundation of ancient yoga principles, but is written for people in the 21st Century. The book is about how we can all progress as human beings without succumbing to the illusion of perfection. The author lays out a path for self-development with the help of ancient yogic principles, shares his personal spiritual revelation at the age of nineteen, talks about how he lessened mental and emotional pain with the help of yoga, and shares his experiences with spiritual teachers. The self-developmental approach is mainly based on four concepts of (1) energy and life balance, (2) the development of attitudes such as non-attachment and service orientation, (3) the embrace of love, empathy and forgiveness, and (4) the evolution from relaxation to concentration to meditation. The book does not include any information about yoga postures, but focuses instead on mental, emotional and spiritual concepts and practices.
