The Light of the Soul
The Light of the Soul: Its Science and Effect. A Paraphrase of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
A free, annotated rendering of the four books of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, read as a manual of raja yoga for the Western disciple: concentration, meditation, contemplation and liberation. It introduced many Theosophical readers to the classic text, though its reading is doctrinal rather than scholarly.
