The Spiritual Teachings Of Yoga

The Indian term Yoga encompasses much more than the health and fitness regime that is largely practised in the West. Ideal for yoga teachers in training, this book explains the philosophy and teachings behind Yoga in a fresh and accessible way, and also includes clear and poetic translations of the key yoga scriptures: the Yoga Sutras, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Upanishads. These ancient texts contain instructions for the philosophy, method and practise of yoga and are guides to inner wisdom.
