The Science of Yoga:
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
I. K. Taimni

Sanskrit and English

$21.95 cloth
978-81-7059-211-2

Patanjali's Yoga-sutras is considered to be the most authoritative treatise on Yoga. Over the centuries, scholars and teachers of Yoga have attempted to expand these Sutras by the writing of commentaries and explanations. Dr. Taimni's work is comprehensive, giving the text of the Yoga Sutras in Sanskrit, transliteration, translation, and commentary. It covers the fields of evolution, the unfoldment of consciousness, the practical approach to a spiritual way of life, the unravelling of the great mystery of existence, and, the culminating experience of samadhi, the goal of the kingly science of Yoga. It presents to the serious student the fundamental teachings of Yoga, its science, philosophy, and technique, in the light of modern thought.

An Adyar book, imported from India.


I. K. Taimni (1898-1978) was for many years Professor of Chemistry at the Allahabad University in India. He guided research and contributed many research papers to technical journals of several countries.
