About this book

This is a poetic rendering of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras that aims to convey the essence and depth of this classical yoga text. Patanjali holds a foundational place in yoga philosophy comparable to the Buddha's role in Buddhism. The Yoga Sutras, literally meaning "the path to transcendence," serve as a means to profound self-realization and are regarded as the spiritual and philosophical root of various forms of yoga tradition. Mukunda Stiles presents this concise, poetic version of the classic text, drawing on a lifetime of devotion to yoga practice. The edition includes line-for-line commentary and word-by-word Sanskrit-to-English translation to aid understanding of Patanjali's essential work.
