Description
Prana and Pranayama is a comprehensive text on the classical philosophy of prana, life force, and pranayama, the expansion and control of the life force. It provides a complete description of the science of pranayama as presented in the classical texts and as taught in the Satyananda Yoga tradition by Bihar School of Yoga. The first part of the book explores the theory of prana and its related yogic concepts: koshas, chakras, nadis and mantras. Secondly, it expands upon respiratory physiology and current research undertaken by science on pranayama. In the practical section, specific guidelines for practising pranayama are given, using detailed instructions and illustrations. Throughout the text, scriptural sources further enhance the reader’s understanding, bringing to light the original essence and intent of these classical teachings.

Great book
This is an excellent book that explains Pranayama from all angles. It explains why it's important, the different categories of exercises, and various subtleties that you wouldn't notice just from watching a demonstration (e.g. how to practice according to your level, beginner, intermediate or advanced). This book is particularly useful when watching pranayama demonstrations on YouTube because through its clear explanations you can see that a lot of videos are either demonstrating the wrong pranayama (e.g. a lot of videos labelled bhastrika are actually demonstrations of kapalbhati) or must be doing a very different style (e.g. bhastrika with exaggerated movement of the ribcage), so you'll know to exercise caution. Overall, a great book that any serious yoga practitioner should read.

IS THERE REALLY A SIXTH DIMENSION?
If you have not read this book you are doing yourself the biggest disservice that you possibly can. Born as a human being, you are at the peak of the evolution journey ... is this really the peak ... or is there another step? If you are at "supposedly" at th "peak", but you have lived all your life drawing pleasures from the same 5 SENSES (Sight, Smell, Sound, Taste, Touch) that dogs, cats, monkeys have ... then maybe there is something more to think about. There IS another DIMENSION beyond these 5 SENSES that you need to explore and the first step of this journey to this next dimension is PRANA. Swami Niranjananda is compassionate and articulate. He holds your hand guides your through this tunnel of darkness until you see the light.
