The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali: A Study Guide for Book I Samadhi Pada
Customer Reviews:
A very useful guide to Classical Yoga theory and practice
By Walter Trant - November 30, 2000It is a pleasure to recommend this remarkably lucid and accessible translation of Book One, the abstract and introduction to this famously difficult four-part work.It is probably not accurate to describe the Sutras as a book, since they are not a collection of essays, or even complete sentences. They are rather a collection of mnemonics meant to provide meaning and order to the experience of Yoga practice under the direction of a qualified Teacher.

Textbook for removing suffering

There is something about contact with truth that gives a sincere student this immediate gratification while also laying the foundation for long term benefit.

Babaji himself is still a presence of silent peace and compassion and thriving at 86 years of age. I am also pleased that all the proceeds from the sale of Babaji's books still goes to the orphanage and it continues to thrive.
I like this book's approach of making the traditional wisdom of yoga available to a western audience without sacrificing the tradition. The text follows the... read more
