Aleister Crowley was among the first Europeans to study, practice
and teach Yoga. These lectures set forth some of Crowley's
conclusions after a lifelong philosophical investigation. The first
series of lectures is entitled 'Yoga for Yahoos.' The elements of
Yoga are introduced, examined and demystified with a view to
extracting the practical essence of Yoga doctrine. Yoga is also
correlated with astrology and the Qabalah. The second series is
entitled 'Yoga for Yellowbellies.' Here Crowley weaves Yoga into a
conceptual framework the encompasses Western philosophy, magick and
mathematical physics. All of these lectures are approached with
humor, wit and a minimum of jargon.
