cosmic energies that it is working with:

the mantras of the ancient Himalayan Rishis. It explores the
Yogas of Knowledge and Devotion, along with Raja and Hatha
Yogas, with a special emphasis on Mantra Yoga.

David Frawley is one of the most important voices in the
ongoing transmission of Vedic knowledge that has already
transformed the spiritual landscape of the West. This book
is a sparkling gem in his necklace of trenchant
commentaries; it will doubtless leave a profound and
enduring mark on religious history.
