The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali: Book I

The Yoga Sūtras Of Patañjali form the basis of Classical Yoga. Encompassing both philosophy and practice, the Sūtras provide indispensable instruction for all serious students of yoga. This Study Guide is for the first of four books, Samādhi Pāda (On Superconsciousness). It reveals the essence of yoga philosophy and teaches the direct means of attaining the goal of perfect peace. 





The commentary by Baba Hari Dass is an exciting contribution to the body of yoga literature. It is firmly based in the classical tradition, yet written with a profound understanding of the Western student. We are pleased to offer this third edition as an e-publication.
