Book Description

This is a complete English translation of a highly significant Sanskrit sub-commentary vivarana purporting to be by Sankara, on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The vivarana is written with great originality. The long commentary on God completely jettisons the narrow sutra definition in favour of a supreme Creator, as evidenced by many ingenious arguments on the lines of the present-day cosmological anthropic principle. The doctrine that the future already exists, and that time is purely relative, anticipate the Einstein era.

Book Description

The Yogasutra is one of the most important works of Indian culture. The present book is an attempt of interpretation of the Yogasutras based on some special criteria adopted by the authros: (1) To use the traditional commentaries as auxiliaries, not as guides, with prudence and freedom, (2) To interpret those Sutras, in which Patanjali analyzes real phenomena, as what they actually are: descriptions of facts of experience. To such an end the authors have tried to have a clear idea of the phenomena to which Patanjali refers, and in this task they have found extremely useful the descriptions of their mystical experiences by Yogis of India and Christian mystics. The book includes the Sanskrit text of the Sutras and an English translation by the authors.

Book Description

Sage Patanjali systematized the science of Yoga that has been in existence in India since times immemorial. Historians believe that he lived near Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh in BC 400. So the Yoga Sutras are about 2400 years old. He built the edifice of his Yoga Sutras on the foundation of a much older Sankhya philosophy. In this course he appears to have borrowed some concepts from Buddhist philosophy also. Sage Vyasa, King Bhoja, Adi Sankara, Vachasapati Misra, Vijnana Bhikshu, Ramananda Saraswati were the main commentators on these highly abstruse sutras. In the modern age, Swami Vivekananda breathed new life into them by his English speeches some 125 years back. I made a humble attempt to explain the intricacies of these sutras in a simple manner. I believe this book will make the reader understand the real meanings of the sutras in a simple and straight manner.

Book Description

Adi Sankara was the founder of Advaita Vedanta. His commentaries on the ten famous Upanishads of the Vedas are available to us. However, he did not seem to have touched the Yoga Upanishads which are about twenty in number. Nevertheless, he authored a small book of 29 slokas 'Yoga Taravali', explaining the essence of the path of Yoga. Though this book is very small in size, it is not so in its content value. We hope that the readers will find this book to be a text book on higher yoga.
