Was Christ A Yogi?

By Swami Abhedananda and Abhedananda

Book Overview

""Was Christ a Yogi?"" is a book written by Swami Abhedananda that explores the similarities between the teachings of Jesus Christ and the ancient Indian philosophy of Yoga. The author argues that Christ's teachings are not only compatible with the principles of Yoga, but also that he may have been a practitioner of Yoga himself. The book delves into the meaning of Christ's parables and teachings, drawing parallels with the concepts of detachment, selflessness, and the attainment of spiritual enlightenment found in Yoga. It also examines the life of Christ and his interactions with his disciples, comparing them with the relationship between a Guru and his disciples in the Yogic tradition. The book is an insightful and thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between Christianity and Yoga, and offers a unique perspective on the teachings of Christ.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Vedanta Philosophy Or How to Be a Yogi, by Swami Abhedananda.
