Description
B.K.S. Iyengar's translation and commentary on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali offers profound insights into the ancient teachings of yoga. This new edition features a new introduction by B.K.S. Iyengar, as well as a foreword by Godfrey Devereux. The Sutras are a collection of short wisdom lines that have been revered for over 2,000 years. Written by Patanjali, they provide guidance on how to transform the mind, body, and emotions through yoga practice, leading to spiritual evolution. Iyengar's translation and commentary make these ancient teachings accessible to modern readers. This book is a valuable resource for both students of Indian philosophy and practitioners of yoga, offering a thorough cross-reference and index to facilitate understanding.
