Reviews for The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

[Candice B. · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

While this book is utterly fantastic, the narrator of this version of it is terrible. Pronunciations are off, and the pacing is stilted and robotic.

Please, do yourself a favour and find a different version. Again, the book is more than worth your time - just not this version of it.

I was so enthousiastic when I found this audio book on the sutras of Patanjali, but the way it has been spoken, I find it very unpleasant :( I hope another version Will come up??❤️

Your life
But you are the life itself and without you ..
The Creator himself will not be perfect and perfect ..
Because you are a ray of his light .. The imprint of his love shines in your heart
And here, and whatever your circumstances, it is just a dark station that you are temporarily moving towards a luminous station that satisfies you ... But ... if you hate your situation and blame anything else, then you will deny yourself the best improvement that awaits you.
So stop it ..
Stop that ..
Stop that ..

All that you lived or lived is preparing you for what is better and coming towards you ..
So seek to rest ..
And change the way you perceive your current situation and search for its positives and repeat thinking about it until it moves you to the best ..
Change your awareness ..
Change how you view your circumstances in a more positive way.
Change your perception of reality towards more positive ..
Because you are important
Yes, you are important
More important and important than what they tell you ..
You are important and you deserve the best, because you participated in making a better situation through your life, so rest.
And chill out ..
And please yourself, because it is your connection with the Creator of the universes.
And seek feelings of contentment and pleasure by doing anything that interests you, because those feelings are evidence of your movement towards the better.
Please yourself ..
Satisfy yourself.
Make yourself happy ..
Whatever you desire
And do what you desire
After a few days, you will see that your situation is better.
You are the most important in your world ..
You are the most important in your life
You are the most important in everything that exists.
You are the love that seeks to shine for itself and those around it.
You are the joy that seeks to shine for itself and those around it.
You are the good that seeks to shine for itself and those around it.
Rejoice ... rejoice
Smile .. yes smile ..
And just as the light of stars does not erase the lights of the earth, it remains shining in space .. Likewise, your position will not erase your coming happiness towards you .. and this is the promise of promises ..
Good is coming towards you ..
Greet him ..
Embrace him
Smile every morning toward the mirror of life and you will see a picture of your smile returning to you from life ... as joys
As happiness ..
As a laugh ..
As love ..
You are the focus of your being ..
So please yourself, be happy, be happy, be happy.
Greetings ..

It feels like true, genuine yoga. I have seen yoga change a lot with the increased popularity of it and certain retailers coming on the scene. Joyful Yoga is not a competitive environment, it’s soft and welcoming the way yoga is supposed to be! Thank you for being true to yoga!! I have really loved the classes I have taken there!

GANDIOSO LIBRO

Para mi los yoga sutras es algo nuevo ya que nunca antes los había leído ni sabía nada de ellos por lo cual ha resultado de mucho aprendizaje aunque debo admitir que me costó un poco de trabajo comprender proncipalmente los últimos 2 capítulos (vibhutipadah y kaivalyapadah). En fin, aquí un resumen de lo que yo más o menos entendí. Como ya se sabe, los yoga sutras son una lista de pensamientos o preceptos que se escribieron hace más de 2,000 años (algunos hablan de 2,200 años, otros incluso, de hasta 2,500 años atrás). Dichos preceptos nos dan las bases para que, a través de la práctica del yoga, logremos transformarnos en todos los aspectos, desde lo físico hasta lo emocional pasando por el control de la mente logrando así estar en el “aquí y ahora”. Además, se establecen las pautas para aprender a dominar nuestro ego y a desapegarnos de todo lo superficial en todos los aspectos de nuestras vidas para alcanzar así la meta del yoga que es Samadhi, es decir, el éxtasis o la realización divina.

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali is an amazing audio book regarding yoga. It is in very simple and mugg up language. When i read some pages i start yoga and suggested to friends who have less command on language and started yoga for their health. Thanks to the author for such an easy step by steps.

[Roldan Mamaspas · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The audio book provides a comprehensive exploration of Patanjali's teachings, covering the eight limbs of yoga (Ashtanga Yoga) and the stages of spiritual development outlined in the text. From ethical principles and self-discipline to meditation and transcendence, each sutra offers a roadmap for personal growth and transformation.

[sohel mamun · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

As i read the sutras and each interpretation i felt some of them didn’t align with the others. Some things said in one sutra would contradict another sutra, some explanations felt antiquated while others didn’t feel honest. It was as if some interpretations said just what we wanted to hear and then as i read forward in some other part of the book another interpretation contradicted the previous one, again to sound nice. Just read 1 sutra each day and practice it, you will see a dramatic changes in your life. If you just read 1 book about The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, this is the book, period! thank you

Lovely story about transitions. They are always happening and actually it is nice to acknowledge the changes and have closure too. The ideas were converted simply but effectively. The children are so caring too - I love their positive role modeling. "
his book is so long, and I read it so fast. 5 Stars, Baby! My only critique is that it is a bit repetitive at times, but I forgive because it seemed like an intentional concession to the length of the book and recognition that folks might be putting it down for chunks of time. Brief chunks, I'd have to believe because this was soooo engrossing.
I know this style, or something like it, has been implemented before - use the personal stories of a few representative characters to exemplify the themes, then explore the themes. Wash and repeat. But I personally haven't read many books in this style. I usually want either facts or stories; I am continually fighting against the human impulse to process the world through narrative rather than boring facts. Futile, I know.
Ms. Wilkerson interviewed 1200 people about their migrations to the North and West, as well as the folks left behind. She settled on 3 very different migrants to draw us into the book, one moving from Mississippi to Chicago, one from Florida to NY, and one from Louisiana to Los Angeles. The detail of their lives is utterly compelling, filled with detail, and yet I never felt like she was embellishing. Everything she said about their lives could have been confirmed with the people themselves or the people who knew them or the historical record. You are rooting for these tenacious characters, even though they were all dead by the time the book was published.

[Ara kates · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This valuable book provides a complete manual for the study and practice of Raja Yoga, the path of concentration and meditation. This new deluxe printing of these timeless teachings is a treasure to be read and referred to again and again by seekers treading the spiritual path. The classic Sutras (thought-threads), at least 4,000 years old, cover the yogic teachings on ethics, meditation, and physical postures, and provide directions for dealing with situations in daily life. The Sutras are presented here in the purest form, with the original Sanskrit and with translation, transliteration, and commentary by Sri Swami Satchidananda, one of the most respected and revered contemporary Yoga masters. In this classic context, Sri Swamiji offers practical advice based on his own experience for mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental and emotional harmony.

This audiobook distills the essence of yoga philosophy into concise aphorisms, or sutras, that provide guidance on the path to spiritual enlightenment. Through timeless wisdom and profound insights, listeners are introduced to the fundamental principles of yoga and the means to achieve inner peace and self-realization.

[anndru smith · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Don't do Scientology or any other hack nonsense that wants to charge ridiculous sums of money and gets you nowhere, the Sutras date back over 4000 years and are the foundations of many religions and have retained their truth. So many other religious books (the Bible for one) have been so adulterated that you can't even be sure what you are reading, there are currently over 250 different versions of the Bible in circulation all changed to suit the needs and the message of MEN not GOD, I have read countless books and have studied almost every religion over my 50 years and this is by far the best thing I have ever seen. This is the first interpretation of the yoga sutras of Patanjali that i read. It was recommended by a yoga teacher. I know the author was an eminence in spirituality, so i hope my review doesn’t offend anybody.
