Description: Sivananda was the founder of a number of yoga/spiritual centers. There is much wisdom in this book, and a lot of it is very similar to Buddhist thinking (altho there are several major differences). Sivananda lays out not just a philosophy, but a practice, a way of thinking and living that includes yoga asanas and dietary advice. This has components of Buddhism (and other religious thought): an emphasis on unselfish giving, compassion, meditation, and peaceful actions and attitudes. There is (in Vedanta, which is the Hindu faith of which this is an expression) a God, and we are His (hopefully) loving subjects. The approach is different from Christianity however - in this view, God is all, the universe is unified. Vedanta appeals to me because it is kind of halfway between Buddhism and Christianity - a lot of the attitudes and practices have similarities with its fellow India-born faith, but there is a God (and other deities) who presides over us all.
