BOOK EXCERPT:
Applying the teachings of this book will enliven your yoga practice and deepen your understanding of your Self.”- Gary Kraftsow, author of Yoga for Wellness and Yoga for Transformation Patanjali's Yoga Sutras is the key text of yoga. Yet for many yoga practitioners, its deeper treasures remain either unknown or mired in obscurity. Ranju Roy and David Charlton focus on 18 of the most important sutras and show how each one illuminates the relationship between the body, the breath, and the mind in a practical, clear, and contemporary manner. The sutras are carefully deconstructed, put into context and then developed into ideas for practice. The authors examine the interplay of three key terms: support, direction and space. They suggest that only by taking support on something can you establish a clear direction; and only then can a space open up to grow into. This formula can be applied as successfully to the body (in asana) as to the breath (in pranayama) and the mind (through meditation). With illustrated asana sequences and suggested practices, Embodying the Yoga Sutra is both a practical as well as a deeply philosophical book. Roy and Charlton give readers a whole new vocabulary with which to understand yoga as a living, vibrant and dynamic tradition.

BOOK EXCERPT:
A contemporary interpretation of the foundational text for the practice of yoga. Patañjali’s Yoga Sutra (second century CE) is the basic text of one of the nine canonical schools of Indian philosophy. In it the legendary author lays down the blueprint for success in yoga; now practised the world over. Patañjali draws upon many ideas of his time; and the result is a unique work of Indian moral philosophy that has been the foundational text for the practice of yoga since. The Yoga Sutra sets out a sophisticated theory of moral psychology and perhaps the oldest theory of psychoanalysis. For Patañjali; present mental maladies are a function of subconscious tendencies formed in reaction to past experiences. He argues that people are not powerless against such forces and that they can radically alter their lives through yoga—a process of moral transformation and perfection; which brings the body and mind of a person in line with their true nature. Accompanying this illuminating translation is an extended introduction that explains the challenges of accurately translating Indian philosophical texts; locates the historical antecedents of Patañjali’s text and situates Patanjali’s philosophy within the history of scholastic Indian philosophy.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book presents contemporary scholarship on the Yoga Sūtra. It revisits Patañjali’s philosophy by bringing it into dialogue with contemporary concerns across a variety of topics and perspectives. Questions regarding the role of the body in the practice of classical yoga, the debate between the realistic or idealistic interpretation of the text, the relation between Yoga and other Indian philosophical schools, the use of imagination in the pursuit of self-knowledge, the interplay between consciousness and nature, the possibilities and limitations of using it as a therapeutic philosophy, the science of meditation, and overcoming our fear of death probe the many dimensions that this text continues to offer for thought and reflection.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Swami Yogeshwaranand Saraswati was a great yogi of his time who had attained perfect mastery over Samadhi. His knowledge of self and God is based on the intuitive experiences he gained in deep meditation. Although he followed the Samkhya-Yoga systems of Philosophy, he deviated from their concepts wherever he experienced truth differently in his meditative vision. His views about the Vrittis and Samskaras are radically different from what is believed by the Samkhya School of Philosophy. In this present book, the author has analysed and discussed some of the most radical aspects of the Philosophy of Swami Yogeshwaranand. His approach is critical but he is also appreciative of some of the findings of Swami Yogeshwaranand which have enriched the Samkhya Philosophy or have contributed to the removal of cobwebs surrounding the conventional systems to augment the existing knowledge. He has done a commendable job of giving exposure to Philosophy or which has contributed to the removal of cobwebs surrounding the conventional systems to augment the existing knowledge. He has done a commendable job of giving exposure to the Philosophy of Swami Yogeshwaranand on the one hand and enlarging the scope of research and analysis of some of the fundamental characteristics of Samkhya thought.
