About this product

Product Information

The world's leading teacher of yoga shows how we can transform ourselves by bringing yogic principles into all aspects of daily living. "Anyone and everyone can make the yogic journey and reach the goal of illumination and freedom..." from the introduction to Light on Life B.K.S. Iyengar - hailed as "the Michelangelo of yoga" (BBC) and considered by many to be the most important living yoga master - has spent much of his life introducing the modern world to the ancient practice of yoga. Yoga's popularity is soaring, but its widespread acceptance as an exercise for physical fitness and the recognition of its health benefits have not been matched by an understanding of the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual development that the yogic tradition can also offer. In Light on Life, B.K.S. Iyengar brings readers this new and more complete understanding of the yogic journey. Here Iyengar explores the yogic goal to integrate the different parts of the self (body, emotions, mind, and soul), the role that the yoga postures and breathing techniques play in our search for wholeness, the external and internal obstacles that keep us from progressing along the path, and how yoga can transform our lives and help us to live in harmony with the world around us. For the first time, Iyengar uses stories from his own life, humor, and examples from modern culture to illustrate the profound gifts that yoga offers. Written with the depth of this sage's great wisdom, Light on Life is the culmination of a master's spiritual genius, a treasured companion to his seminal Light on Yoga .

Reviews
" Light on Life offers revelations from a lifetime of studying yoga." -- The Washington Post " Light on Life is . . . a rumination on the metaphysics of yoga and the mystery of being alive." -- The Baltimore Sun "Like his other books, Light on Life is rich in yoga philosophy and methodology. But unlike his previous writings, this new book is full of autobiographical anecdotes. . . . [A] formidable will percolates through Light on Lif e." -- The New York Times "Rather than present the yoga postures as he did in Light on Yoga , Mr. Iyengar reveals in Light on Life the 'heart of yoga' that he personally discovered through more than 70 years of disciplined, daily practice . . . [including] the precise ways that yoga can transform our lives and help us live in harmony with the world around us." -- Yoga Journal

    A classic- life changing.

    Nothing short of a masterpiece. Read it once, then read it again.. and then read it at least once a year to refresh.

    Light on Life by B. K. S. Iyengar

    It is a little worn, but otherwise great and enlightening. If you are into yoga, just starting a journey into yoga or even question the allure of yoga, this book is for you. You do not have to be aligned with Iyengar's point of views or his way of teaching to appreciate his ideas.

    A must read for those searching for Enlightenment!

    What a fantastic book. Uplifting, enlightening & revealing all in one! For the uninitiated there are lots of new terms & concepts so it may be a slower read until you learn the terms and are familiar with the ideas. But overall a must read!

    Light on Life is heavy

    I bought this book at the suggestion of my yoga instructor. It is a good partner to learning yoga poses. Describing living the yoga life, the book is a pleasant read.
