Samenvatting
Like no other, Drs Frans Langenkamp understands the art of translating and commenting on cryptic and misunderstood passages from the Indian sage Patanjali's famous Yoga Sutra in such a way that the reader feels: yes, this is how it is, this is logical and self-evident. This book deals with the last two chapters of the four chapters of Patanjalis Yoga Sutra. These are about acquiring supernormal abilities and gaining an all-encompassing Insight in reality. In this book, the author introduces the Consciousness Paradigm of reality. In doing so, he provides a modern articulation of the essence of the science of Yoga. Yoga considers the absolute and omnipresent consciousness as the source and essence of all creation. The Consciousness Paradigm enables Western and rationally thinking persons to understand and experience his or her essence - the true self - and thereby gain insight into the whole. Insight is indeed everything!
