"Clearing the Path is a 'must read' for any sincere and dedicated aspirant of classical Yoga. This grand treatise by Stephen Parker (Stoma) is one of the best ever explorations bringing together ancient and modern perspectives of the mind and mindfulness. It provides integrative and wholesome answers to inquisitive questions about the mind, how to clear way all the hurdles, how to make it our friend, and finally how to go beyond it, thus merging our limited individuality into infinite universality. The Yogic path is very clearly laid out; the rationale is provided in depth. It is now our call to walk the path, the grand path to liberation."

- Yogacharya Ananda Balayogi Bhavanani, Md, CYT, chairman, ICYER at Ananda Ashram, Pondicherry, India

"Dr. Parker, with beautiful clarity, articulates two of my favorite areas of study - the expansive psychology of the Yoga Sutras and recent revelations of neuroscience, which reveal and validate the transformative power of that ancient map of consciousness - it's a gem."
- Jim Nelson, MA, LP, author, Running on Empty

"It is a marvelous attempt to unveil the subtle shades of emotions blossoming into an all-pervading awareness."
- Subodh Tiwari, director, Kaivalyadhama Yoga Institute, Lonavla, India
