Inner Engineering

Inner Engineering by Sadhguru is an extraordinary exploration of technology for personal transformation. As a renowned thought leader, visionary, mystic, and yogi, Sadhguru introduces Western readers to the ancient and time-tested path towards absolute well-being—the classical science of yoga. This book is not just an introduction to yoga, but a roadmap to attaining a joyful, fulfilled life through self-transformation.

This New York Times bestseller begins by explaining that hatha yoga, as commonly understood in the West, is merely a fraction of what yoga truly encompasses. Yoga, as Sadhguru elaborates, is a comprehensive system of self-empowerment designed to activate and harmonise the inner energies of the body and mind, thereby enabling one to function at their peak potential. By mastering these internal mechanisms, you can shape your inner experiences and become the architect of your own happiness.

The book delves deeply into Sadhguru’s personal journey of awakening. He shares his transformation from a boy with a unique connection to nature to an adventurous young man traversing the Indian subcontinent on his motorcycle. The narrative highlights the pivotal moment of enlightenment he experienced on a mountaintop in southern India, a moment which brought about a profound change in his perception of life.

Today, Sadhguru is the founder of the Isha Foundation, an organisation dedicated to humanitarian causes and human well-being. He clarifies the role of a guru as a "dispeller of darkness," someone who guides others without imposing doctrines or beliefs. According to Sadhguru, the key to solving humanity’s problems lies in self-transformation—a complete shift in how one perceives and experiences life.

Sir Ken Robinson, author of The Element, Finding Your Element, and Out of Our Minds, applauds the book, describing it as "a loving invitation to live our best lives and a profound reassurance of why and how we can." Inner Engineering has been named one of the ten best books of the year by Spirituality & Health.

The wisdom and practices outlined in this engaging and transformative book are both timeless and contemporary. Inner Engineering empowers readers with tools that are as effective as they are revolutionary, offering a new perspective on what it means to be human. This accessible guide promises to unlock a life of joy and a deeper understanding of personal agency and well-being.
