Only Way Out Is In A Modern Day Yogis Commentary on the Synergy of Ashtanga Yoga Ayurveda and Tantra
How can we get on the road to true happiness, peace, and equanimity? Is it possible to find it in this lifetime? The Only Way Out Is In, addresses these questions and gives an answer to man’s relentless lifelong quest of looking outside oneself and chasing this inevitable illusion when the answer is simply to look within! This book offers guidance for each individual to look inside and live in the here and now, using the ancient practices of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda, and Tantra in daily living. It affirms that the way “In,” can be found by the practices of self-study offered by these three sciences. Utilizing the synergy of the three is one of the most powerful practices for the journey within. Each one has it’s own unique qualities of clearing, building, and cultivating the needed energy to ascend. Ashtanga Yoga does this through the practices of yogic postures, breathing, and awareness techniques while using the body as a vehicle for transformation. Ayurveda assists each individual by creating a blueprint for which to live a healthy, vibrant life, as well as to understand your own unique place in the natural order of the Universe. Tantra guides readers further within by connecting people with their own inherent wisdom through the concept of loving yourself first and foremost. Out of cultivating this love of yourself, people naturally share the abundance with everyone and everything. Carlisi’s book demystifies these esoteric practices in a user-friendly way. He lures the reader “In” by describing vividly and vulnerably his own trials and tribulations along the Yogic path. He does this by clearly creating a usable “map” for life, that he developed over 30 years of self research as a practitioner of these 3 sciences.
User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Only Way Out is In
For an informative book it was a “page turner”. I feel it was well written and interesting. If you are new on to the Yoga scene or a seasoned practiciner this book is for you. Anthony’s “Prem’s” style of writing on some complex subjects such as “Aruveda” makes it relatively easy and fun to comprehend. I actually passed this book along to my husband who is an “anti-yogi” hoping that it will inspire him. If not that maybe something in the “Tantra” chapter.
5 Stars GENUINE LOOK AT ASHTANGA, AYURVEDA, AND TANTRA
I have been practicing Ashtanga yoga for over 10 years and have many
different books about yoga, ayurveda, and tantra. This one in
particular is special, because of the way Carlisi honestly reveals
himself to the reader and weaves his personal experience throughout.
I was surprised to discover a lot of information about these
practices that no one else talks about. He makes his message known
clearly that ashtanga yoga, ayurveda, and tantra are available for
anyone and everyone, at any age and any point in their life. I
couldn’t put it down and would recommend it to yogis and non-yogi’s
alike.
5 Stars Enjoyable and humorous read, even for people new to yoga!
As a beginner to yoga, a friend suggested this book to me. I was reluctant to read it at first, but once I started, I couldn’t put it down! Since then, it has turned me on to a lot of new ideas and I am excited to learn more about all three topics.
