Travelers to India have written great talesabout the hordes of fakirs, mendicants and mountebanks who infest the greatroads of India and the streets of its cities, and who impudently claim the title"Yogi.

5 " The Western student is scarcely to be blamed for thinking of the typicalYogi as an emaciated, fanatical, dirty, ignorant Hindu, who either sits in a fixedposture until his body becomes ossified, or else holds his arm up in the air until itbecomes stiff and withered and for ever after remains in that position or perhapsclenches his fist and holds it tight until his fingernails grow through the palms ofhis hands. That these people exist is true, but their claim to the title " Yogi " seemsas absurd to the true Yogi as does the claim to the title "Doctor" on the part of theman who pares one's corns seem to the eminent surgeon, or as does the title of "Professor," as assumed by the street corner vendor of worm medicine, seem to thePresident of Harvard or have been for ages past in India and other Oriental countries men whodevoted their time and attention to the development of Man, physically.

6 Mentallyand spiritually. The experience of generations of earnest seekers has been handeddown for centuries from teacher to pupil, and gradually a definite Yogi SCIENCE wasbuilt up. To these investigations and teachings was finally applied the term "Yogi,"from the Sanscrit word " Yug," meaning "to join." From the same source comes theEnglish Word "yoke," with a similar meaning . Its use in connection with theseteachings is difficult to trace, different authorities giving different explanations,but probably the most ingenious is that which holds that it is intended as theHindu equivalent for the idea conveyed by the English phrase, "getting intoharness," or "yoking up," as the Yogi undoubtedly "gets into harness" in his workof controlling the body and mind by the is divided into several branches, ranging from that which teaches the controlof the body.

7 To that which teaches the attainment of the highest spiritualdevelopment. In the work we will not go into the higher phases of the subject,except when the " SCIENCE of BREATH " touches upon the same. The " SCIENCE ofBreath" touches Yoga at many points, and although chiefly concerned with thedevelopment and control of the physical, has also its psychic side, and even entersthe field of spiritual HINDU-YOGI SCIENCE OF BREATHBy YOGI RAMACHARAKAPage: 4In India there are great schools of Yoga, comprising thousands of the leadingminds of that great country.

8 The Yoga philosophy is the rule of life for manypeople. The pure Yogi teachings, however, are given only to the few, the massesbeing satisfied with the crumbs which fall from the tables of the educated classes,the Oriental custom in this respect being opposed to that of the Western Western ideas are beginning to have their effect even in the Orient, andteachings which were once given only to the few are now freely offered to any whoare ready to receive them. The East and the West are growing closer together, andboth are profiting by the close contact, each influencing the Hindu Yogis have always paid great attention to the SCIENCE of BREATH , forreasons which will be apparent to the student who reads this book.

9 Many Westernwriters have touched upon this phase of the Yogi teachings, but we believe that ithas been reserved for the writer of this work to give to the Western student, inconcise form and simple language, the underlying principles of the Yogi SCIENCE ofBreath, together with many of the favourite Yogi breathing exercises and have given the Western idea as well as the Oriental, showing how one dovetailsinto the other. We have used the ordinary English terms, almost entirely, avoidingthe Sanscrit terms, so confusing to the average Western first part of the book is devoted to the physical phase of the SCIENCE of BREATH ;then the psychic and mental sides are considered, and finally the spiritual side istouched may be pardoned if we express ourselves as pleased with our success incondensing so much Yogi lore into so few pages, and by the use of words andterms which may be understood by anyone.

10 Our only fear is that its very simplicitymay cause some to pass it by as unworthy of attention, while they pass on theirway searching for something "deep," mysterious and , the Western mind is eminently practical, and we know that it is only aquestion of a short time before it will recognize the practicability of this greet our students, with our most profound salaam, and bid them be seated fortheir first lessons in the Yogi SCIENCE of BREATH .
