From the perspective of yoga psychology--the view from infinity--even our basest instincts, our most mundane acts, and our greatest follies can be understood as the limited or distorted expressions of a purposeful, compassionate and infinite intelligence. Yoga Psychology is based on the writings of Sri Aurobindo, the revolutionary poet and philosopher who founded the independence movement in India later led by Mahatma Ghandi.
Don Salmon is a clinical psychologist and composer. Jan Maslow is an educator and organizational consultant.

"Yoga in its original and deeper intention has always been a
psychology, a way of alleviating suffering from the mind and heart
and opening a higher awareness within us. Salmon and Maslow have
taken the essence of Yoga psychology and show its relevance today
as an important new paradigm for bringing humanity to a higher
level of consciousness in which all our personal and social
problems, however apparently intractable, can be solved in a
lasting manner." --David Frawley, author Ayurveda and the Mind, and
Yoga and Ayurveda--David Frawley
