The Yoga Sutras

What is life really all about? Why are we here? Have you ever asked yourself these questions? There are few who have risen to the challenge of answering such questions as these, better than the great sage Patanjali did over 2,200 years ago. Patanjali was a great mystic of the 2nd century BCE, and his wisdom is no less relevant or enlightening today then it was in his own time. In his famous and legendary book the Yoga Sutras, Patanjali offers us his superb and brilliant insights in just 200 short and exquisite verses, explaining some of the most profound mysteries of life. Including answers to such questions as: "What is the nature of our mind?" "What is the soul?" "Is there a God?" "How do we acheive Enlightenment?" His words are considered among some of the greatest spiritual revelations ever revealed here on earth. Thomas Emerson presents here an insightful commentary on the sutras, bringing to life Patanjali's ancient wisdom wrapped in today's language, using modern terms and metaphors for a twenty-first century.
