Description

Chase Bossart is J’s go-to-guy for all things Sanskrit and ancient texts. In this rare conversation, Chase shares insights into the translation of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, and opens up about his long-time relationship with the Desikachar family and the tragedy that has befallen the lineage. As they trace Chase’s trajectory from the late 80’s till today, the conversation touches on the difference between Yoga and Yoga Therapy, illuminates some trends and downfalls in the current industry, and points to potential alternatives going forward.  This episode is part of our premium podcast subscription.
