Product Description

Book Description:

"Hatha Yoga Pradipika is a classic Sanskrit manual on Hatha Yoga, written by Swami Swatmarama, a disciple of Swami Goraknath. Said to be the oldest surviving text on the Hatha Yoga, it is one of the three classic texts of Hatha Yoga, the other two being the Gheranda Samhita and the Shiva Samhita. The book was written in 15th century [AD]. The work is derived from older Sanskrit texts and Swami Swatamarama's own yogic experiences. Many modern English translations of the book are available. The book includes information about asanas, pranayama, chakras, kundalini, bandhas, kriyas, shakti, nadis and mudras among other topics. It runs in the line of Hindu yoga (to distinguish from Buddhist and Jain yoga) and is dedicated to Lord Adinath, a name for Lord Shiva (the Hindu god of destruction and renewal), who is alleged to have imparted the secret of Hatha Yoga to his divine consort Parvati." (Quote from wikipedia.org)

5.0 out of 5 stars Hatha Yoga Pradipika: Sanskrit and English, October 8, 2008
By GG "a practicing yogi" (Dade City, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hatha Yoga Pradipika: Sanskrit and English (Forgotten Books) (Paperback)
A very interesting little book that really gives a meaningful perspective on yoga practices. The translations into English allows you to take the time to think about the practice.
