International bestselling author Guy Gavriel Kay's latest work is set in a world evoking early Renaissance Italy and offers an extraordinary cast of characters whose lives come together through destiny, love, and ambition. In a chamber overlooking the nighttime waterways of a maritime city, a man looks back on his youth and the people who shaped his life. Danio Cerra's intelligence won him entry to a renowned school even though he was only the son of a tailor. He took service at the court of a ruling count--and soon learned why that man was known as the Beast. Danio's fate changed the moment he saw and recognized Adria Ripoli as she entered the count's chambers one autumn night--intending to kill. Born to power, Adria had chosen, instead of a life of comfort, one of danger--and freedom. Which is how she encounters Danio in a perilous time and place. Vivid figures share the unfolding story. Among them: a healer determined to defy her expected lot; a charming, frivolous son of immense wealth; a powerful religious leader more decadent than devout; and, affecting all these lives and many more, two larger-than-life mercenary commanders, lifelong adversaries, whose rivalry puts a world in the balance. A Brightness Long Ago offers both compelling drama and deeply moving reflections on the nature of memory, the choices we make in life, and the role played by the turning of Fortune's wheel.Binding Type: Paperback

I love this book
Format: Paperback
I love this book. It actually explains in details what concentratio (Dharana), meditation (Dhayana), and contemplation (Samadhi). It is very interesting to know that if we can concentrate 12 seconds on external or internal object, then we have successful concentration, 12 of these (12x12) is Dhyana and twelve of these (12x12x12) is Samadhi. I tried it and got Samadhi after half an hour, of course it needs few month of daily practicing.
The book also speaks about attaining magic powers after long time of practicing, but of course we need Yogi master to achieve that.
Raja Yoga is the origin of the Sufi systems that originated after Muslims lived in India.

Phenomenal
Format: Paperback
This is one of few books that actually describe, in an accessible manner, how to control the mind during meditation. Particularly the last two chapters of Raja Yoga (the second part of the book is Patanjali) are some of the most valuable pages on meditation I have come across (easily 20+ books). Highly recommend for the practitioner.

Excellent little book
Format: Paperback
Excellent little book, with some of Patanjali's original text in Sanskrit along with a translation. I read a little bit every day. Great insights. i have no idea what the critic of this book is talking about. $6.95 for this book is a great deal, and I have absolutely no ties to the printers or sellers of this item.
