Roots of Yoga (Penguin Classics) Description
Roots of Yoga (Penguin Classics)
'Yoga is to be known through yoga. Yoga arises from yoga. One who
is vigilant by means of yoga delights in yoga for a long time'Yoga
is hugely popular around the world today, yet until now little has
been known of its roots., This book collects, for the first time,
core teachings of yoga in their original form, translated and
edited by two of the world's foremost scholars of the subject. It
includes a wide range of texts from different schools of yoga,
languages and eras: among others, key passages from the early
Upanisads and the Mahabharata, and from the Tantric, Buddhist and
Jaina traditions, with many pieces in scholarly translation for the
first time. Covering yoga's varying definitions across systems,
models of the esoteric and physical bodies, and its most important
practices, such as posture, breath control, sensory withdrawal and
meditation, Roots of Yoga is a unique and essential source of
knowledge.Translated and edited with an introduction by James
Mallinson and Mark Singleton
