Book Reviews of The Heart of Yoga: Developing a Personal Practice
Book Review: Best translation of the Yoga Sutras of Pantanjali.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent book. Be advised that this book contains an incredible bonus - the best, and most understandable translation (actually a translation/interpretation) of the Yoga Sutras of Pantanjali that I have ever read. After years of searching for a translation that I could actually use in my personal practice, I am very grateful to have found this one. This alone is well worth the price of the book. Highly recommended.
Summary of The Heart of Yoga: Developing a Personal Practice
The Heart of Yoga is the first book to present the teachings of revered yogi Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya (1888-1989) from the unique perspective of his son and principal student. Here, T.K.V. Desikachar shows how to use Krishnamacharya's system of viniyoga to develop a personal practice that is responsive to your own needs and adaptable to your age, health, and lifestyle. Krishnamacharya based his teachings on a number of scriptural sources, but of them all he placed the highest value on Pata-jali's Yoga Sutras. Heart of Yoga makes available for the first time in the West Desikachar's commentary on Pata-jali, as taught to him by his father.Yoga Books
