Did anyone read (and may be practise?) books written by Mouni Sadhu? How well do they work? I've brought the book "Concentration: a Guide to Mental Mastery" written by Mouni Sadhu like a year ago because of the good review at amazon. But give up practising after a week or two so don't know about its result. The exercises are rather tough, unlike mantra meditation which is easy. And although he explained that he is bringing together the best technique from east and west, there's too little background information about their source and credibility. So I decided not to spend time on it. Yogic tradition seems more widely practised. Just curious if anyone here know more about this. If the techniques in the book do indeed work and is just "another path"; it may be possible to extract something useful out of it (???)
"There are many ways to the top of the mountain" as they say so although I have no experience with Mouni Sadhu, who's system may be very good for all I know, I would recommend sticking with one system in order to reach your goals.
Some paths up the mountain are very slow and take many horizontal dips and turns while others are more direct and straight to the target. AYP is like the latter, it is focussed and to the target and it is both complete and powerful. So when you reach a block along the path you will have the ability with AYP to disintegrate it so you can carry on and if you suddenly reach different terrain after being on the path for some time, you will also have the tools to adjust and carry on.
Think of it like being on a roller-coaster. There will be many unexpected dips and turns, slow moments and fast moments, moments when you feel upside down but are actually right-side up. In the end it will become obvious that it was all just one big long ride.
