Description:

Following in the footsteps of his legendary yogi father, Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, T.K.V. Desikachar presents the concepts of Viniyoga, which are tailored to meet the specific needs of the individual. Rather than subscribing to a strict set of rules and rhetoric, the yoga experience is simplified and amplified, seen as a dynamic process that allows for changes and demands in everyday life. This book includes a straightforward interpretation of the Yoga Sutras of Pantajali, 32 poems by Krishmacharya, and over 300 photos and illustrations.

Great intro on yoga philosophy

rideau from New Paltz, NY, Dec 6, 2007

I read this book as part of the yoga teacher training program in which I'm enrolled, and by far it has been my favourite reading so far. Desikachar does not take the dogmatic, religious approach to yoga that others favour. He stresses humility and adjusting one's practice to one's own circumstances. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an introduction to the philosophy of yoga.
