Authored by the Catalonian mystic and occultist Vicente Beltrán-Anglada (VBA, 1915-1988), this is the first English translation of this introductory book on Agni Yoga (initially published in 2017; revised and extended in 2019). This book presents a practical exposition of the mystical but intensely dynamic life born in the heart when the mind stops reflecting its external circumstances and surrenders to its spiritual purpose.Students of the modern practice of mindfulness may find in VBA's approach to Agni Yoga a striking resemblance with the constant presence of mind (i.e., profound attentiveness) required of its practitioners. Students of the evolution of consciousness may find in this book a cogent exposition of VBA's personal experience in developing the intuitive sense of the heart beyond the rational mind.Appendices, with illustrations, have been added to enhance the comprehension of this material for those fellow students and scholars interested in the esoteric context in which VBA's approach to Agni Yoga was written.

This brochure, Mother of Agni Yoga, appears simultaneously with another--Mother of the World. These two concepts emphasize the sublime Manifestation of the Feminine Principle as Divine Motherhood, and the attainment of one woman, whose ceaseless striving and selfless service through many incarnations brought her to that stage of evolution which made her a living example of what woman may achieve--under Hierarchial Guidance. The Great Teacher who gave to the World the Agni Yoga Teachings--or Living Ethics for the New Era--through Helena Roerich, designated her "Mother of Agni Yoga."

Agni Yoga is the fourth book from the Agni Yoga Series which is composed of fourteen books. In them is found a synthesis of ancient Eastern beliefs and modern Western thought and a bridge between the spiritual and the scientific. Unlike previous yogas, Agni Yoga is a path not of physical disciplines, meditation, or asceticism--but of practice in daily life. It is the yoga of fiery energy, of consciousness, of responsible, directed thought. It teaches that the evolution of the planetary consciousness is a pressing necessity and that, through individual striving, it is an attainable aspiration for mankind. It affirms the existence of the Hierarchy of Light and the center of the Heart as the link with the Hierarchy and with the far-off worlds. Though not systematized in an ordinary sense, Agni Yoga is a Teaching that helps the discerning student to discover moral and spiritual guide-posts by which to learn to govern his or her life and thus contribute to the Common Good. For this reason Agni Yoga has been called a "living ethics."

Since ancient times, humankind has known the soothing and purifying power of music. Today, we too often forget the unifying spirituality of sound, allowing it to clutter our lives but never hearing its true and transcendental beauty. Here, the renowned Agni Deva offers traditional chants not as accompaniment to life but as a pathway to holiness. In speaking the name of God, one finds God incarnate in sound and brings the light of God into the world. The many names of gods in Vedic literature each represent a path to liberation, if one is able to utter them with consciousness and dedication. Yoga of Sound is an invitation and portal into a vast, beautiful world of traditional song to be listened to, not merely heard. It includes a CD of traditional kitrans and an introduction by Patrick Bernard, the creator of Sublime Relaxation and author of The Secret Music of the Soul.

The key is a precise set of meditative techniques designed to unite mind and breath and turn them inward, allowing us to heal and rejuvenate ourselves on every level of our being. In Vishoka Meditation: The Yoga of Inner Radiance, Pandit Tigunait makes meditation as practiced by the ancient yoga masters accessible to a modern audience, offering step-by-step instructions to guide us to this illumined state of consciousness. Grounded in the authentic wisdom of a living tradition, the simple--yet profound-- practice of Vishoka Meditation is the perfect complement to your existing yoga practice, as well as a powerful stand-alone meditation practice.
