Description

The book "Merging with Siva" embraces your full potential. It is not one of those books that reveals yoga techniques for improving the condition of the physical body. It does not offer six dozen different kinds of breath control or 108 hatha yoga poses. Instead, it opens up the yoga of life, jnana yoga, the yoga of knowing your true essence, and the yoga of relationships. This is the yoga of change, of discovering new perspectives. It is about unveiling your true, divine nature—your "I," the Atman, the Observer, the Seer. Explore various areas of your inner and outer mind through careful observation of your reactions to flashes of intuition that arise while reading. You may catch yourself thinking: "I always knew this," or: "Yes, this is exactly what I experienced."

The book Merging with Siva is a collection reflecting life experience on the path to realization. Realization is the consequence of experience, knowledge that has come from the depths of the spirit. This word also refers to that which has been seen. No one can cast it aside, alter it, or remake it.

"This book is also dedicated to those spiritually mature personalities who guided my actions, taught me to live, think, and feel. In addition, it is dedicated to those who have not yet reached spiritual heights: by their example, words, and deeds they taught me how one should not live, what must be avoided so that all of life may be filled with joy and energy. Truly, everyone is our teacher: some teach us what should be done; others—what should not be done. The right to choose which of these two paths to follow is granted to us, and to us alone.

Thus, the book "Merging with Siva" is dedicated to everyone who in any way influenced my life, especially to my satguru, the 161st preceptor of the Nandinatha Sampradaya Kailasa Parampara. He and his spiritual successors left us an extraordinary account of spiritual unfoldment, which you are about to read." (Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami)
