TKV Desikachar - Yoga - Tradition and Experience

This book links both sides in a lively way: On the one hand, it relates the ideas on the functioning of our mind set out in Patanjali's Yoga Sutra, the most fundamental yoga text, to our everyday experiences and actions; on the other hand, it links the guidance offered in this great text, the eight-limbed yoga path, with the experience of individual yoga practice, be it physical exercises, breathing exercises or other aspects of this path.

The author's choice of examples is realistic, so the book remains concrete and understandable when it comes to explaining difficult connections. The book provides inspiration and encourages reflection. It can help everyone to better understand the need for their own practice and thus create a more conscious approach to the practice of yoga. In conjunction with experienced yoga practice, it is a living testimony to ancient yoga wisdom for people of our time who are looking for meaning and fulfillment.
