How to Know God: The Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali: 2 (Routledge Library Editions: Yoga) - Hardcover

The aphorisms collected in this book, first published in 1953, were composed by Patanjali, a great Indian sage, over 1,500 years ago, and here translated into clear English prose. The accompanying commentary interprets the sayings for the modern world, and in doing so gives a full picture of what yoga is, what its aims are, and how it can be practised.
