Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, Paperback Book, By: Swami Vivekananda

Yoga is restraining the mind-stuff from taking various forms. Pat Anjali's Yoga Sutras, written almost two millennia ago, is a comprehensive text on the theory and practice of yoga. From concentration, its spiritual uses and practice, to manifestation and the process of attaining liberation, the aphorisms state the path to self-realization. One of the key texts of classical yoga, this edition of Pat Anjali's Yoga Sutras is a translation by Swami Vivekananda. It includes the Sanskrit text, its transliteration, and translation followed by an in-depth commentary of each sutra.

About the Author:

Born Narendranath Datta (1863-1902) in Calcutta, capital of British India, Swami Vivekananda belonged to a traditional aristocratic Bengali Kayastha family. Spiritual from an early age, Vivekananda was fascinated by wandering monks and used to practice meditation. He met Ramakrishna around 1882.

It came about as a life-changing experience for him and he eventually became his remarkable disciple. After Ramakrishna's death, Vivekananda, along with other disciples, set up the Ramakrishna Math at Baranagar. In December 1886, they all took monastic vows. It was then that he took the name Swami Vivekananda. I have played a major role in introducing yoga and the Vedanta philosophies to the West. It is because of him that Hinduism gained the status of a major world religion.
