Satyam Speaks: Pratyahara

The book focuses on the fifth limb of Sage Patanjali's Raja Yoga system—Pratyahara. It details the internal bridge between external yoga practices (like asanas and pranayama) and internal meditative states (like dharana and dhyana).

Swami Satyananda Saraswati (1923–2009) was a yoga master and the founder of the Bihar School of Yoga. He is globally celebrated for systematising ancient, complex tantric and hatha yoga processes into logical, step-by-step methodologies accessible to modern spiritual seekers.

This text compiles the methodology and practices required to disconnect the mind from external sensory inputs. By interiorizing the awareness, practitioners learn to manage mental noise and emotional distractions, paving the way for deep concentration and meditation.
