Swami Ram Swarup: Yes, please. With the grace of Almighty God, I have written about Ashtang Yoga Philosophy in detail. There are two parts of the book in Hindi. I would advise you to read both the parts wherein you will get yours smallest as well as biggest questions’ answers, please.
However, there are eight parts of Ashtang Yoga Philosophy mentioned in four Vedas which are- Yam, Niyam, Asan, Prannayam, Pratyahar, Dharnna, Dhyan, Samadhi, the details of which have been given in above quoted Yoga book, named- “Patanjal Yog Darshanam- I and II” (in Hindi) worth Rs.131/- and Rs.200/- excluding postal charges.
You may also study my book “Yoga- A Divine Vedas’ Philosophy” in English worth Rs. 65/- excluding postal charges.
Yes, it is an eternal truth that a Yogi listens eternal divine music (in the form of five instrumental voices like that of conch, instruments containing wires like sitar/veena, flute, mridang, bell. These are called Anhad Dhwani.) with closed ears and sees divine light with closed eyes.
Ashtang Yoga philosophy is learnt in person from a learned acharya of Vedas and Ashtang Yoga Philosophy preliminarily. This is also a traditional law of Vedas which can never be broken. So, if you have got some time, you are welcome here to learn Vedas’ preach and divine yoga philosophy, practically here, please.
Ram: In respect of Ashtang yog,is it true that a person while doing ashtang yog feels his whole body sunn(sensitive free) and this makes soul travel to up brhmands and finally to the supreme God?
Swami Ram Swarup: The experience of realizing God occurs within the body by doing practice of Ashtang Yoga Philosophy and not out of the body. If you can send your address then my contact number will be given to you, please, to discuss the matter personally.
Suba Ram: Is it true that by exercising astang yog one can achieve complete liberation from karma and the soul reaches its highest attitude for rest in peace?
Swami Ram Swarup: Yes, please. It is eternal truth that by practicing Ashtang Yoga Philosophy under guidance of learned acharya of Vedas and ashtang Yoga Philosophy, the soul gets final liberation.
