The Yoga Sutras are the answers to much of what ails the world today.
The Yoga Sutras were originally written by Maharishi Patanjali, in Sanskrit, more than 2,000 years ago. “Sutra” means, “to thread,” and there are 194 Yoga Sutras that make up the “tapestry” of Yoga.
Within these verses are guidelines to self-discovery and purpose. The Yoga Sutras are a classic text, which makes them essential reading for every serious student of Yoga.
Each time we approach any Sutra, the meaning, or viewpoint, may change, because we are not the same person we were yesterday. Our daily experiences change us a little each day. This experience, and the study of Yoga Sutras, is healthy for self-reflection and meditation.
We know there is much more to the Yogic path than physical postures and exercises. In this course, serious students will learn how to access the deeper wisdom of Yoga philosophy.
Discover why we react the way we do in certain situations. Learn how suffering can be an opportunity for growth. Learn the practical application of non-violence and truth. Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras give us many illuminating perspectives that can be applied to daily life, right now.
To help integrate this wisdom into our modern life, this course offers a unique approach. Instead of reading each sutra sequentially, from beginning to end, there is focus and discussion regarding 51 key concepts. By exploring these principles, and the option of learning to chant the Yoga Sutras in their original Sanskrit, the essence of classical Yoga philosophy is revealed to us.
The Yoga Sutras course invites you to discover a variety of practical tools, and heartfelt insights, for transforming your practice, including:
A 336-page color-illustrated workbook, with a concise history of Yoga and the sutras, an in-depth explanation of key themes, translation of all 195 sutras, and a complete glossary of Sanskrit terms for quick reference.
Six sessions, full of insights, to further your learning about Yoga’s essential principles.
Guided readings, on a CD, of the complete sutras, with pronunciation instructions for following along.
Fifty-one study cards to encourage reflection of each concept and inspire action.
When you immerse yourself in Patanjali’s sutras, the heart of Yoga—and what Yoga means for you, personally—will unveil itself in new and profound ways.
Whether you are a seasoned Yoga teacher, or a student looking to go deeper with your practice, this essential course offers a treasury of teachings to help realize the “outer joy and inner happiness” of Yoga.
