Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
Summary
Swami Satchidananda's "Yoga Sutras of Patanjali" is a detailed commentary offering a universal outlook on this famous ancient text.
I trascribed this entire book while traveling on the road with ENO (Eagles Nest Outfitters) during my 200-hour teacher training. I will never forget sitting in a hammock at music festivals carefully writing each sutra in my journal to try and help myself remember.
Swami Satchidananda’s commentary provides insights into the philosophy and practice of yoga through his unique lens. The sutras are described in a clear and accessible manner, making complex concepts understandable for modern readers.
This commentary is used throughout many teacher trainings for its clear and concise descriptions that make the sutras accessible to all. Throughout this book readers learn the importance of the eightfold path of yoga, including: ethical principles, physical postures, breath control, and meditation.
By following this path one can achieve spiritual enlightenment and inner peace. This comprehensive guide is the perfect addition for self-study or for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding and practice of yoga.
