Publisher's Synopsis
The Yoga-Sutra of Patañjali is the central text, the core of practical theory and guiding instruction of all Yoga disciplines and traditions. It defines and delineates the technical, metapsychological, and meditative premises of the philosophical and practical fields of Yoga. The Yoga-Sutra is one of humanity's most impressive treatises on consciousness and transcendent psychology. The first translations of the Indian philosophical treatises into European languages appeared in the mid-1800s. Since then nearly 102 English versions of the Yoga-Sutra of Patañjali have been produced. This book provides unique tools for English-speaking students to immerse themselves in the Yoga-Sutra of Patañjali, allowing them to make the path of yoga intimately their own.
