The book delves into the psychological dimensions of Yoga philosophy and its significant impact on both Eastern and Western intellectual traditions. It highlights Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, foundational to Hindu, Jaina, and Buddhist thought, particularly their focus on psychological processes. Coward analyzes the influence of Yoga on Indian philosopher Bhartrhari and Western psychologists like Freud and Jung, illustrating how these ideas shape concepts of language, theology, mysticism, and memory in Western thought.
