From the Publisher
Several letters
have been received by Sri Swami Sivanandaji
Maharaj daily from people who suffer from this
fashionable disease called insomnia.
It is undoubtedly
a product of modern materialistic civilisation
with its artificial life, emotional existence and
rain on man's nerve-power. But saying that does
not give relief.
This book has
been specially written by Sri Swami Sivanandaji
Maharaj to serve the needs of the sleepless. For
the benefit of people of different temperaments.
Sri Swamiji has given different methods of
treatment. One who adopts Swamiji's Adhyatmik
prescriptions will feel like one who, searching
for a glass of water to quench his thirst, chanced
upon a jarful of the nectar that confers
immortality on him.
This book will
not only help cure sleeplessness, but will awaken
man from the slumber of ignorance and lead him to
the Supreme State of Sleepless Sleep-Samadhi or
Nirvana.
