Yoga is often considered in the West strictly within the parameters of physical Yoga; but the 8 types of Yoga described by Patanjali provide a system for attaining Union (Yoga's meaning from the original Sanskrit) with the Cosmos. Essential for developing a foundational understanding of Eastern Philosophy of Mind, the myriad attributes of Yoga educate the practitioner on his or her own physiological and phenomenological Being.
These texts convey remarkable theses on the human condition. They indicate an existential reality deeper than everyday phenomena, with varying phenomenological perspectives and conclusions between them. Engaging with them is regarded as a Sacred undertaking, and is well-worth the effort. The Spiritual Texts deliver a message so meaningful they have endured enumerable plagues, epidemics, and otherwise catastrophes to echo their beautiful tune from the depths of Time.

This book is an excellent primer on Jungian Psychology (the school of thought named after Carl G. Jung, a highly-imaginative Swiss Psychiatrist that carefully walked the line between Eastern & Western Philosophy). Jung recorded much of his phenomenological experiences, as well as his theoretical schema for the relationship between Consciousness and the external environment. Edinger proves himself a true student of Jung's worldview.

An understanding of the external world is extremely valuable for equilibrating one's endeavors to understand the internal world. Beyond that, human beings are fundamentally engineers of ourselves and our environments. We are distinguished from other creatures of the earth by our capacity to comprehend how our external environment behaves, thereby enabling us to design and build a world that favors us.

Invaluable to the Thoughtful Thinker are books which articulate the status of cultures past, present, and future. Our collective participation in cataloguing the human experience now, how it has been, and how it might be in the future, is an inextricable part of preserving the positive aspects of our culture and dispensing with those darker practices of mankind. We choose to engage with the dark ideas in this domain; because if we don't, they engage with us, but on their terms.
"The individual is increasingly deprived of the moral decision as to how he should live his own life, and instead is ruled, fed, clothed, and educated as a social unit, accommodated in the appropriate housing unit, and amused in accordance with the standards that give pleasure and satisfaction to the masses."
A thoughtful analysis of modern life and how to avoid mass manipulation and groupthink. Jung regards the Self as the core social unit, the essential identity of each individual.
