Core of the Yoga Sutras: The Definitive Guide to the Philosophy of Yoga
Bellur Krishnamachar / Sundararaja Iyengar
The latest work of the most recognized yoga teacher. With a preface by the Dalai Lama. In this work, B.K.S. Iyengar clearly and easily interprets the aphorisms of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, revealing to the reader the philosophical essence of this great teaching. He shows how we can transform ourselves through the practice of yoga in order to reach a new level of spiritual development. The Heart of the Yoga Sutras consists of two parts. The first contains a translation of sayings made by the author on the basis of his personal experience and existing comments. In the second part, the author compares the sutras with other texts and explains a number of concepts that are rather difficult to understand.
