About the Book
Brings yogic traditions into dialogue with current philosophical and scientific research on consciousness.
In this book, philosopher and yoga practitioner Giulia Moiraghi brings yoga into dialogue with current debates on consciousness in analytic philosophy and cognitive science. The book explores embodiment's role in revealing a typically overlooked dimension of consciousness: the horizon consciousness. Bringing major thinkers in phenomenology together with the classical texts of yogic traditions, as well as the author's own firsthand experience, the book argues that yoga, across all the centuries and in its diversity of practices, points toward a common core that should not be left to an archaeological domain of study but should be integrated into ongoing philosophical research on consciousness. By helping the reader understand the relevance of key phenomenological concepts to the practice and actualization of yoga, the book provides a concise and agile tool for general practitioners in the contemplative field and for scholars in consciousness studies, Indian studies, philosophy, psychology, and cognitive science.

Editorial Reviews
“This is an important contribution to both the scholarly study of yogic traditions and the emerging global conversation on consciousness. The scholarship is both wide-ranging and sound, and the book offers interesting and novel interpretations of yogic texts and traditions, which are made possible by the deep work on Husserl and Heidegger. It will be of interest to scholars of phenomenology, yoga, Indian philosophy, and consciousness studies.”
