The
first step toward Power consists in obtaining a control of one’s own
mind. It holds that the internal world must be conquered before the
outer world is attacked. It holds that the “I” manifests itself in Will,
and that that Will may be used to manipulate, guide, govern and direct
the mind of its owner, as well as the physical world. It aims to clear
away all mental rubbish, and encumbrances—to conduct a “mental
house-cleaning,” as it were, and to secure a clear, clean, healthy mind.
Then it proceeds to control that mind intelligently, and with effect,
saving all waste-power, and by means of concentration bringing the Mind
in full harmony with the Will, that it may be brought to a focus and its
power greatly increased and its efficiency fully secured.
Concentration
and Will-power are the means by which the Yogis obtain such wonderful
results, and by which they manage and direct their vigorous, healthy
minds, and master the material world, acting positively upon Energy and
Matter. This control extends to all planes of the Mind and the Yogis not
only control the Instinctive Mind, holding in subjection its lower
qualities and making use of its other parts, but they also develop and
enlarge the field of their Intellect and obtain from it wonderful
results. Even the Spiritual Mind is mastered, and aided in its
unfoldment, and urged to pass down into the field of consciousness some
of the wonderful secrets to be found within its area.
By means of Raja Yoga many of the secrets of existence and Being—many of the Riddles of the Universe—are answered and solved. And by it the latent powers inherent in the constitution of Man are unfolded and brought into action. Those highly advanced in the science are believed to have obtained such a wonderful degree of power and control over the forces of the universe, that they are as gods compared with the ordinary man.

being separated into 12 parts. This book consists of 12 lessons of Raja
Yoga

LESSON VIII. The Highlands and Lowlands of Mind
LESSON IX. The Mental Planes
LESSON X. Sub-Consciousing
LESSON XI. Sub-Conscious Character Building
LESSON XII. Sub-Conscious Influences
This is the FOURTH lesson – Mental Control
This
book is very powerful in helping to understand you true self and
consists of a series of lessons designed to enlighten them regarding the
nature of the Real Self, and to instruct them in the secret knowledge
whereby they may develop the consciousness and realization of the real
“I” within them. They are shown how they may cast aside the erroneous or
imperfect knowledge regarding their real identity.
The Book
talks on the internal world of the self. The real nature of the
subconscious mind, the way to control it, how ego comes into play and
most frequently asked questions like “Who am I” are attempted to answer.
The last part of this episode consists of exercises and meditations to help you prepare for the 5th lesson.
Please let me know if you enjoyed this and I will put these out faster. I have found it to be a powerful set of lessons.
