New Aeon Magick Chapter 11 by Garald Campo

                    YOGA: MAGICK OF THE EAST

"Though  reading and conversation may furnish us with many  ideas
of  men  and things, yet it is our own meditation must  from  our
judgment".

                                                     Dr. I. Watts
                               ***

Magick  is  the  Yoga of the West.  The goal  is  the  same,  the
methods are slightly different.

The main groups of Yoga are:

1)  HATHA YOGA= Health Yoga, bringing the nerves to a calm state.

2)  RAJA YOGA= Mental Yoga, concentrative.

3)  NANA YOGA= Yoga of Knowledge.

4)  KARMA YOGA= Yoga of Work.  (Karma comes from a Sanskrit  word
    called "KRI" which means "to do".

5)  BHAKTI YOGA= Yoga of Devotion, to see God in all things.

6)  MANTRA YOGA= Yoga of speech.

7)  DHYANI YOGA= Yoga of Meditation.

8)  KUNDALINI YOGA= Yoga of the Life Force.

9)  TANTRA YOGA= Sexual Yoga.

The  object  of  Yoga is to stop  all  mental  process  including
itself.   Yoga  is the Art of Unity and Love.   When  object  and
subject are united, Knowledge occurs.  The process of Yoga is  as
follows:

1)  DHARANA (Fixing the mind on an object.)

2)  DHYANA  (Uniting object and subject.)

3)  SAMADHI  (The  result of uniting  object and subject.   Union
    with God.)

4)  SAMYAMA (The result and accomplishment of all of the above.)

There  are eight ways in which the Magician can achieve  Samyama:

1)  *YAMA= Control, restraint.

2)  *NIYAMA= Restraint of the mind.

3)  ASANA=  Posture.   "That which is firm  and  pleasant".   Any
    posture which is "steady and easy".

4)  PRANAYAMA=   Control  of  breath.    A  process  whereby  all
    impurities are thrown out of the body.

5)  PRATYA  HARA=   General  examination of  thoughts  which  one
     wishes to control.

6)  DHARANA=   Fixing  the mind  on a single  point  whereby  the
    impurities of the mind are thrown out.
7)  DHYANA= Uniting the object with the subject.

8)  SAMADHI=  The result of uniting object with  subject.   Union
    with God.

(*   The  object of these two is to stop all emotion  or  passion
from   disturbing the mind.  It is probable that these  practices
were  adopted  by  Christianity  and  manifested  themselves   as
celibacy.)
