The Yoga Vasishta (Abridged Version)

The teachings of Vasishta make one face life, understand it and transcend it, and not run away from it.

The language, he chooses, is sweet and elegant; the similes, he employs, are apt and captivating, the stories, he narrates, are profound and absorbing.

“A pupil like Sri Rama, a preceptor like Sri Vasishta, a scripture like Yoga Vasishta, there have never been nor ever will be” so exclaimed Sri Vasudeva Brahmendra Saraswati of Tamilnadu, a deep student of the Yoga Vasishta and this verse has been approvingly quoted by Dr. Atreya elsewhere in his writings.
