Light On The Yoga Sutras Of Patanjali is one of the few authentic and legitimate self-help books exclusively for the ancient Indian art of Yoga. The widely followed book has been written keeping in mind the completely unexposed Western mind, and opens gate to spiritual orientation. The text consists mainly of Yoga sutras, or hymns, as expressed by Patanjali, along with a comprehensive set of yogic postures. The author has taken tremendous efforts to be as authentic as possible and each posture is explained and demonstrated with clarity. Moreover, he also suggests daily routines for a variety of physical goals and targets. His commentary on the topic is directed at novice aspirants who has had little or no exposure to the art of Yoga, and the tone and descriptions are convincing in terms of knowledge disseminated and in engaging the reader. Exclaimed as the โBible of Yogaโ and having won acclaim across several spiritual fora and on websites, the book is a best seller. Light On The Yoga Sutras Of Patanjali was published by Element as reissue edition in 2005, and is available in paperback. Key Features: It contains a new translation of Yoga sutras (hymns and aphorisms) of the ancient saint Patanjali. It has been meticulously authored by BKS Iyengar, an exponent of the artform. Review: Excellent book - Ancient Indian texts have so much depth and information. They can guide a person who wants to evolve into a better human being. To some extent Mughal and British rule made Indians to move away from this vast repository of knowledge. It is duty of all Indians to learn and read these texts and spread them. They have the advantage of knowing how to read the devanagari script. It will be good for humanity - if people of all countries can get to know and read these texts. This book- Yogasutras of Patanjali is an example of an ancient Indian text. It is an excellently written book with lucid explanations. Review: Excellent Book A++++++++++Highly recommedded to ALL - One of the best yoga coommentery, Excellent explanation don't think just go for this outstanding commentary on yoga

Excellent content, but printing not good
The content from Guruji, is very good. However printing is not so good. The fonts are small and the Sanskrit Shlokas are printed in bad font.

The best book on Yogasutras
I have read a couple of books on Patanjali yoga sutra but didn't find what I was seeking exactly. Everyone had their own ways of describing the aprorisms that didn't satisfy my quest. After reading just a few chapters of this book, I can say that this book is the best book one can ever read on Yoga Sutras. It contains knowledge from the enlightenment being. One suggestion to the publisher, the font is too small to read for people with reading glasses. It strains the eyes too much and spoils the pleasure of reading.

The book is great but can we Print a better quality
I like the fact they want to make this book affordable but what about people who want a longer lasting book with good quality paper and hard bound. Can the publishers please think about that too. It would be really great if they did that.

Book is really good but Font size is smaller
Overall book is really good with the author explaining various sutras of Patanjali Yoga. But the font of the book is smaller and I find it difficult to read the whole book, Font size needs to be improved in future by the Publishers.

Shipping by Amazon
Product is good (some smudge of script, but OK). Amazon shipping is a problem and needs to be remedied. On the day of scheduled delivery, the truck came and parked just past residence. Then drove away. The package was delivered next day late at night (in our view unethical). We have another affiliate Amazon account. The package was delivered a day late and half ripped and tampered! This has to stop and the driver pulled in and counseled on duty, quality and ethics or reassigned.
