The Eight Limbs of Yoga

The Yoga Sutras by Patanjali are one of the most important ancient texts in yoga. This book focuses on Ashtanga, Patanjali’s Eight Limbs of Yoga. The Sadhana Pada outlines the Ashtanga system. It is a blueprint for living a conscious lifestyle, leading to personal transformation and eventually self-realization. Yoga isn’t just one system. This sacred science has many paths and techniques. However, the limbs provide great insight and guidance into Yogic philosophy and practice, and allow us to grow, heal, and thrive. They work together and when we incorporate them into our lives, there is a tapestry that leads to spiritual awakening. The Ashtanga by Patanjali is a time-tested and proven method for self-extraction. It’s like getting a prescription from God for our ailments in mind, body and soul. The author explores the eight limbs and offers observations as well as practices that will help you live, benefit, and embody this wisdom. The author offers both a modern view of the Sutras as well as a set of practices that can be used to incorporate them into your daily life.
