      Description:

      An aim, an ity, a ness and a ment is the seventeenth in the series of Satyam Tales depicting the life and teachings of our guru, Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati. Through the medium of these simple narratives, we hear the voice of Sri Swamiji inspiring all, irrespective of age.A seemingly innocuous question posed by Swami Niranjan to his guru on a sutra of Sage Patanjali results in an eye-opening answer and leads him on a lifelong quest to distill the essence of what it takes to achieve success in the motley endeavours and sadhanas of one`s life. That quest in turn ends up setting the roadmap for the next fifty years of work in the field of yoga. This story is a delightful read for children, adults and old alike. It is an invaluable message for those engaged in the world and for those seeking the spirit. This journey is your journey, these challenges are your challenges, and this victory is your victory. It is a story that will touch your heart, give you joy, hope, conviction and, above all, faith. Yes, you too can be an achiever if you set yourself an aim and follow it with sincerity, seriousness and commitment.

          About the Author

          Swami Satyananda Saraswati was born 1923 at Almora (Uttaranchal) into a family of farmers. His ancestors were warriors and many of his kith and kin down the line, including his father, served in the army and police force. However, it became evident that Swami Satyananda had a different bent of mind, as he began to have spiritual experiences at the age of six, when his awareness spontaneously left the body and he saw himself lying motionless on the floor. Many saints and sadhus blessed him and reassured his parents that he had a very developed awareness. This experience of disembodied awareness continued, which led him to many saints of that time such as Anandamayi Ma. Swami Satyanada also met a tantric bhairavi, Sukhman Giri, who gave him shaktipat and directed him to find a guru in order to stabilize his spiritual experiences. In 1944 at the age of nineteen, Swami Satyananda met his guru Swami Sivananda and came to live at Sivananda Ashram in Rishikesh. In 1947, he took the vow of sanyasin or monastic renunciation and became a swami. He served in different departments at the ashram for over 12 years. He did physical labor, edited the ashram's Hindi journal, wrote various articles and composed poems in both Hindi and Sanskrit. He wrote a translation and commentary in the English language of the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad by Swami Sivananda. Upon leaving the ashram in 1956, he wandered throughout India, Afghanistan, Nepal, Burma and Ceylon for the next 7 years, extending his knowledge of spiritual practices. He eventually found his way to Munger, in the province of Bihar. After establishing himself there, in 1963 he founded the International Yoga Fellowship and the Bihar School of Yoga a year later. He lectured and taught globally for the next twenty years and authored a number of books which are considered among the most revered in the field of yoga and yogic philosophy, and remain popular to this day. In 1988, he retired from active involvement in teaching and handed active work of his ashram and organization to his senior disciple Swami Niranjanananda. He lived in seclusion as a Paramahamsa Sannyasin performing higher spiritual and vedic sadhanas. Paramahamsa Swami Satyananda took "Sajeeva Samadhi" at his ashram in Rikhia, Jharkand on December 5th, 2009.

                  Foreword

                  Yoga Sadhaka and the visionary yogi scientist as he was, Swami
                  Kuvalayananda ji had perceived the importance of approaching yoga through
                  scientific and psychological understanding, as way back as in 1924. Swami ji
                  was passionate about engaging practical sessions in yoga often himself, as he
                  always thought of integrating research findings of the institute's scientific
                  laboratory into practical teaching classes. Him self having an illustrious
                  educational background he always insisted on a thorough study of yoga
                  practices on scientific lines. It is noteworthy that all his 84 odd research
                  articles and three books he authored reflected his panache for presenting his
                  research findings and original views with a psychological penchant. To him
                  psychology is part and parcel of communicating yoga science as he always
                  insisted, the physical side is only a minor aspect of yoga which is chiefly
                  mental and spiritual." His literary articles on yoga also reflected
                  psychological orientation to the subject matter he dealt with. He was an
                  expert teacher of Patanjala Yoga and Hatha Yoga alike. In my studentship at
                  the institutional yoga college for 2-year course Yoga Pravistha, I found him
                  dealing with the psychological nuances of subtler concepts of Patanja
