"What is yoga? Is it about meditation? Is it strictly for health benefits? Is it for making the mind blank? Is it something from the Hindu tradition? What are the different kinds of yoga? Do they strive for the same goal? What should I concentrate on? Do I need to retreat to the mountains or can I stay at home? Is Krishna the object of yoga? Is He God? How can I think about Him? Why should I meditate on Krishna instead of others? Who are some of the notable personalities who have attained yoga, and how did they do it?" These questions and more are the subject matter of the nineteen essays that comprise "Attaining Yoga."
