Product Description

Jacob Needleman

'A wonderful translation, full of contemporary insight yet luminous with eternal truth'

Product Description

The basic questions of Who Am I? Where Am I Going? What Is the Purpose of Life? are asked by every generation, and Patanjali's answers (given in the third century BC) form one of the oldest spiritual texts in the world. 'That which unites' is called 'Yoga' - and is thus much broader than the form of exercise so popular today. It is a way to restore our lost wholeness, our integrity as complete human beings, by unifying the personality around a centre that is silent and unbounded. Alistair Shearer's superb introduction and translation bring these ancient, vital teachings to life in the modern world and are for all those who seek the benefits of self-knowledge.

A beautiful book 4 Jan 2009
Format:Hardcover
Shearer's poeticism does Patanjali's aphorisms justice. This book is beautifully written, with uplifting translations. Though I myself am an author of a Patanjali book, I carry this one around with me, too!

This is a commentary by Charles Johnston, available cheaper elsewhere as noted by another reviewer. It is not James Haughton Woods' translation. A zero star review is not available.

Note this review only applies to the Kindle edition published by Neeland Media LLC (1 July 2004)

I bought another kindle book with the same title for $0.74 and was siaapointed with it because it only had English and no original Sanskrit references. So I bought this for $3.54 hoping get some thing more.

This is the same book as the other and there is no way to return a kindle book!!!

Do not buy this one when you can the Sam ebook for $0.74!
