Pat Anjali is the da man of an overview of spiritual practice, from an Indian perspective 600 AD.  (or is that 800 Ad?)The most controversial part of PJ, imo, is he discusses at length the Siddhis or powers accruing from SP.But the definition of SP, according to Pat is in the opening:Yogaham chitta vritti narodaham.Yoga is the stilling of the thought  waves of the mind.orcloseness to God is a result of clearing out childish distractions of the mind.A must have book on every learned person's book shelf, but see another reviewer's comments on the translation - evidently theKindle is crap, or scholarly quality.SO - buy the book, and avoid the Kindle.
