The Yogi's Roadmap: Patanjali Yoga Sutra as a Journey to Self Realization - Paperback

by Mariana Caplan Phd (Introduction by), Rama Jyoti Vernon (Introduction by), Bhavani Silvia Maki (Author)

While the techniques of Yoga are well expounded upon in the West, little guidance has been offered to integrate these practices with our emotions and psychology. Traditionally, the Patanjali Yoga Sutra is recognized as the definitive guide, offering perennial wisdom in navigating life's challenges through the cultivation of viveka khyati, discriminating wisdom. In The Yogi's Roadmap, Bhavani Maki offers unique, contemporary insights into the Yoga Sutra, revealing that deep, personal inquiry is both the means and the experience, of embodying our true spiritual awakening.
