The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali has long been shrouded in mystery and confusion. That’s because
existing translations rely on confusing language and outdated interpretations. The process can be
so frustrating that it seems that only yoga instructors or dedicated gurus are committed to
studying this ancient text, the Yoga Sutra.
This guide is intended to teach you how to be the leader in your own spiritual journey. By
modernizing and simplifying the sutras, this guide makes it easy for you to know exactly how the
sage Patanjali conceptualized yoga and the path to realization. Before you know it, you’ll be
inspired to start meditating, fostering positivity, and dispelling the toxic elements in your life.
The guide is broken down into three chapters packed with helpful tips and information:

  • Chapter One gives you the history of the Yoga Sutra and how it has changed from the time
    Patanjali wrote the sutras to today.
  • Chapter Two provides the full 196 sutras in simple language so that you can easily your own
    spiritual journey toward enlightenment. This chapter also includes new commentary to give
    you insight on what each sutra means.
  • Chapter Three brings the practice to your mat by encouraging you to make the Yoga Sutras
    your own. You’ll be invited to write an intention and explore which sutras will be best for
    your yoga journey. When you make the sutras work for you, you’ll be that much closer to
    enlightenment.
    Many of the guides out there for the Yoga Sutra are just as confusing as reading this ancient text
    in the original Sanskrit. With those other guides, you often find yourself having to re-word the
    sutras in a language you understand.
    But, here, you won’t be bogged down by dense, hard-to-understand language or outdated
    phrasing. Everything in this guide has been mindfully written and organized so that you can get
    the most out of this life-changing yogic journey. What else makes this guide so special? Here are
    a few other ways this guide stands out among the others:

  • The format allows you to read through the entire translation of a section before reading the
    author’s. That means you get the opportunity to formulate your own interpretations before
    reading someone else’s.

  • The sutras are repeated throughout the chapter so that you can naturally become familiar with
    them instead of having to memorize them.

  • Definitions of complex ideas are simplified and weaved into the text so that you don’t have
    to reference back to a glossary.
    Why are these aspects so important for your journey towards enlightenment? Well, the more that
    you’re able to take the wheel and genuinely gain the knowledge of the sages, the more you’ll be
    inspired and empowered to stay committed to your yoga practice.
    But that’s not the only advantage. These intentional formatting and language choices make the
    Yoga Sutra more enjoyable. Because who ever said that the philosophy of yoga had to be a bore?
    You can achieve enlightenment and enjoy the process with this guide!
