For, as he has rightly observed, "an understanding of Siimkhyan thought is an absolutely necessary prerequisite for appre- ciating Yoga experience" (p. xv). The Samkhyan analysis of human existence is the background of Yoga, and as such it justifies "Yoga's flight from the real world," which otherwise would be puzzling especially to a Western reader.
