About this title

Synopsis:

Patanjali's Yoga-sutras is considered to be the most authoritative treatise on Yoga. Condensed in one hundred and ninety-six aphorisms or sutras are the essential philosophy and technique of Yoga. Over the centuries, scholars and teachers of Yoga have attempted to expand these sutras with commentaries and explanations. This is a comprehensive work giving the text of the Yoga-sutras in Sanskrit, transliteration in Roman, followed by a translation and commentary. It covers the fields of evolution, the unfoldment of consciousness, the practical approach to a spiritual way of life, the unravelling of the great mystery of existence, and the culminating experience of samadhi, the goal of the kingly science of Yoga. Presents to the serious student the fundamental teachings of Yoga, its science, philosophy and technique, in the light of modern thought.
