I think the Yoga Sutras, written by Patanjali, have been the most important Scripture or spiritual doctrine I've ever read.

For those of you who aren't familiar with it, it is the oldest known text written about yoga ever. The first writing to ever explain Yoga.

Yoga, according to the Sutras, the "suppression of the modifications of the mind". It is what Christianity calls Christ, Buddhism calls Nirvana, Hinduism calls Enlightenment. It has been referred to as the Tao and even God.

In the bible , it says "Be still, and know that I am God". That pretty much sums up Yoga.

A link to the Sutras can be found in my sig.
