Looking at the main theme of the present book on Yoga Psychotherapy and Traditional Therapies of the East and West is the recent development. In this context, there is genuine need today of new perspective which has been combined the best elements of the depth psychology (psychoanalysis) of the west and the yoga psychotherapy of India in this present book. Besides this emerging perspective there is also a genuine need for bringing to light much of Indian psychology- the great wisdom of which is hidden in our ancient literature and more of which still remains unknown to western professional personnel as well as to Indian teachers and practitioners of psychotherapy. Secondly, scientific research work pertaining to the clinical investigations and their application in the field of yoga psychotherapy whose full potentiality and its claims potentiality remain virtually unexplored and unverified at adequately larger scale, needs further boost. It is my honest feeling that it is both our duty and privilege to give to the west the integral Indian psychotherapy based on Ayurveda, yoga and verdant and Tantra in present operational terms as a contribution to global psychotherapy.
