I was immediately taken in by this extraordinary book. It’s much more than a translation. With exceptionally dear and insightful Q & A’s, this is a comprehensive education in the Yoga Sutras and the Yoga Tradition by a widely acknowledged scholar, practitioner and teacher. This is indeed a remarkable book! It was hard to put it down!
