内容简介
BKS Iyengar’s translation and
commentary on these ancient yoga sutras has been described as the
“bible” of yoga.This new edition of the classic text contains a new
introduction by BKS Iyengar, as well as a foreword by Godfrey
Devereux, author of Dynamic Yoga.Patanjali wrote this collection of
yoga wisdom over 2,000 years ago. They are amongst the world’s most
revered and ancient teachings and are the earliest, most holy yoga
reference.The Sutras are short and to the point – each being only a
line or two long. BKS Iyengar has translated each one, and provided
his own insightful commentary and explanation for modern
readers.The Sutras show the reader how we can transform ourselves
through the practice of yoga, gradually developing the mind, body
and emotions, so we can become spiritually evolved.The Sutras are
also a wonderful introduction to the spiritual philosophy that is
the foundation of yoga practise.The book is thoroughly
cross-referenced, and indexed, resulting in an accessible and
helpful book that is of immense value both to students of Indian
philosophy and practitioners of yoga.
