In its first part, it investigates facets of the South Asian and Tibetan traditions of yoga, such as the evolution of posture practice, the relationship between yoga and sex, yoga in the theistic context, the influence of Buddhism on early yoga, and the encounter of Islam with classical yoga. The second part addresses aspects of modern globalised yoga and its historical formation, as for example the emergence of yoga in Viennese occultism, the integration of yoga and nature cure in modern India, the eventisation of yoga in a global setting, and the development of Patañjali's iconography.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -In the general part of this issue, R. H. Koch studies the representation of K¿rttikeya in Sri Lankan Buddhist monasteries and his supplantation by the iconography of Skandakum¿ra.In the Archiv für indische Philosophie, V.

E. Steinkellner unites the text of all fragments of V¿¿agäa/V¿r¿agäya's '¿ä¿itantra' on inference and offers a translation of this part of the lost work.
