"The Second Book Of His 3 Volumes Series, is based upon his learnings about life and existence derieved from ancient Indian /philosophy. Spiritualism is defined in the East as the science of higher consciousness and explains Oneness and the harmonious coexistence of Man with the Universe. These pages are about understanding the divine within us; how to live spiritually, moment to moment, and enjoy every aspect of life without assistance from any external source. The niceties of life which we all crave, also create many struggles and conflicts. We reach for books on spiritual development or join spiritual classes or religious centres, hoping for clarity and salvation, only to realize we are more confused than before. In fact, our confusion has been compounded by complexity. This is where this simple book speaks to us in a straightforward, down-to-earth manner, revealing there are no diktats we need to follow-only the voice withing. We notice the change as through constant vigil, the sub-conscious takes over and we evolve by ourselves - alone; experientially"
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali - Book 2: Sadhana Pada What relevance does the wisdom of the ancient and timeless practice and philosophy of yoga have for us today? Has the world qualitatively changed such that the principles of life and the dynamics of consciousness as observed by the seers and teachers of ancient times are no longer relevant? Is modern culture’s aim of freedom to pursue desires and experience the world through the senses a sufficient explanation and justification of life? In Sadhana Pada the ageless methods for achieving freedom from desires are presented. These life changing principles and practices are offered here so that they can be tested and experienced in the setting of modern life; the experience of peace that they bring can then be measured against the experience of a life spent fulfilling desires.

Jean Ritter, Progressions
