About this title Synopsis: Yoga Sutras of Patanjali Maharshi are meant to elevate the spirit of every person. This is clearly the gospel of enlightened living, neither escape from life nor a hallucinatory 'light'. The attempt in this little book has been to expose that gospel, to avoid technicalities, and to relate the whole yoga philososphy to the ordinary and simle daily life of everyone. There are many many commentaries by many enlightened of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. This perhaps stands out for the simple and lucid commentary. About the Author: Swami Venkatesananda, a close disicple of Swami Sivananda has many books to his credit. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

SynopsisThis valuable book provides a complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. This new deluxe printing of these timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras (thought-threads), at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. In this classic context, Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.
