{"product_id":"billinge-tom-waryoga-9781736293720","title":"WarYoga","description":"In the East resides one of the last living Indo-European spiritual traditions. Unbroken by the Abrahamic conversion that swept through the West and largely unaltered over thousands of years, Hinduism, the remnant of Vedic religion, currently has almost a billion followers in India alone. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLike their Indo-European Greek and Persian cousins, the Indians have a rich wrestling tradition going far back into history. Its present-day form known as kushti was adapted from earlier styles, some of which arrived with the Aryan Invasion. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKushti wrestling and its conditioning exercises, a practice dedicated to the god Hanuman, could be called a sort of violent yoga. Its akharas are still filled with faithful adherents who grapple in sacred pits, swing weighted clubs, and lift heavy stones as part of their training. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn addition to being an authority on Greek mythology, Undying Glory author Tom Billinge also has a background in Vedic religion. This has lead him to become the standard-bearer for a uniquely Western continuation of the Indo-European holy warrior tradition known as \u003cb\u003eWarYoga\u003c\/b\u003e. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarYoga\u003c\/b\u003e merges old-world Indian athletic training with ancient Tantric principles rooted in the Vedas. This deeply esoteric, yet accessible program recreates a prehistoric system of Indo-European physical alchemy. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRecently returned from his second pilgrimage to India as a WarYogin, Billinge has brought back a work expounding this living tradition rooted in physico-spiritual transmutation. With its final pages written in the hotels of India between forays into akharas across the country, the essence of \u003cb\u003eWarYoga\u003c\/b\u003e has been distilled in book form.","brand":"Amazon Digital Services LLC - Kdp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53762999779670,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/billinge-tom-waryoga-9781736293720","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
