The Sutras are also a wonderful introduction to the spiritual philosophy that is the foundation of yoga practise. The Sutras show the reader how we can transform ourselves through the practice of yoga, gradually developing the mind, body and emotions, so we can become spiritually evolved. BKS Iyengar has translated each one, and provided his own insightful commentary and explanation for modern readers. The Sutras are short and to the point – each being only a line or two long. They are amongst the world’s most revered and ancient teachings and are the earliest, most holy yoga reference. Patanjali wrote this collection of yoga wisdom over 2,000 years ago. This new edition of the classic text contains a new introduction by BKS Iyengar, as well as a foreword by Godfrey Devereux, author of Dynamic Yoga. BKS Iyengar’s translation and commentary on these ancient yoga sutras has been described as the “bible” of yoga.
