They are amongst the world’s most revered and ancient teachings and are the earliest, most holy yoga reference.</p> <p>The Sutras are short and to the point – each being only a line or two long. BKS Iyengar has translated each one, and provided his own insightful commentary and explanation for modern readers.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>The Sutras are also a wonderful introduction to the spiritual philosophy that is the foundation of yoga practise.</p> <p>The book is thoroughly cross-referenced, and indexed, resulting in an accessible and helpful book that is of immense value both to students of Indian philosophy and practitioners of yoga.</p>
