More than 2,000 years ago, the legendary master Patanjali answered this question in 195 pearls of insight known as the Yoga Sutras. Now Sanskrit and Ayurveda teacher Nicolai Bachman offers The Yoga Sutras, a complete course with a fresh new approach to working with Patanjali's seminal text for guidance and inspiration on your own journey toward clarity and happiness, Illuminating Wisdom for the Serious Yoga Student. Why do we react the way we do in certain situations? How can suffering be an opportunity for growth? Why are nonviolence and truth important to a student? Patanjali's sutras offer an illuminating perspective on these questions and more. To help integrate this wisdom into our modern life, Bachman offers a unique approach. About the Author: Nicolai Bachman Nicolai Bachman has been teaching Sanskrit, chanting, yoga philosophy, and Ayurveda since 1994.

No matter which translation of the Yoga Sutras you like best, you need this one if you are serious student of Patanjali. This teaches you the Sanskrit needed to fully understand the subtle differences in how each translation is approaced. There are great tools, charts, diagrams, and guides to assist in truly appreciating a spiritual master piece. The tools to learn, understand and appreciate Sanskrit are extremely well done. Author approaches the work from the perspective that to understand the historical basis of the Yoga Sutras, how they were taught, learned (oral recitation), and passed on from teacher to student is rooted in the very language they are shared in. A key part of learning in this tradition is to actually chant or say the Sutra in the original language, Sanskrit. Speaking the Sutra is a key part if the learning process. The root sounds from Sanskrit modify and entrain the mind of the student with the seed sounds that are spoken in such a way that knowledge is revealed or perceived directly. In a sense that true depth of the Sutra's (or any Sanskrit text) cannot be fully understoond or grasped or known unless the tones can be experienced. From my reading of this text at least this is what I understand and it has a sense and feeling of accuracy and truth. I suspect the same is true for the original text from any religion. Many languages do not translate directly or easily to English. The author has done an amazing job in providing all tools necessary to dive deeply into the Yoga Sutras in a way I have not seen before.
