Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra

studies on Consciousness and Meditation Techniques
Life is a continuous purification and inevitably passes through knowledge. Purity is a virtue of the soul and we can achieve it when we free ourselves from the conditionings of the false ego.
Marco Ferrini
A deep study of Patanjali’s work, the most ancient Yoga psychology, philosophy and spirituality treatise.
Patanjali describes Yoga as “cessation of mental spirals” to restore one’s full self-consciousness and stir one’s life. Showing where the psyche gets stuck, it also explains how to reactive it by way of freeing oneself from unconscious mental automatisms and ascend successfully towards the brightest peaks of super-consciousness.
Connettere i diversi piani dell’essere, la dimensione umana-empirica e quella metafisica-spirituale, sino a poter sperimentare, attraverso lo sviluppo di virtù e conoscenze, uno stato di perfetto appagamento nella relazione con Dio, con tutte le creature e con il creato.
