Les “aphorismes” ou Yoga Sutras de Patanjali ont fait l’objet de maintes traductions et de maints commentaires. La présentation très claire du texte original sanscrit, la traduction des aphorismes ainsi que des termes utilisés, et enfin leurs commentaires me paraissent tout à fait remarquables. L’auteur des traductions et des commentaires, Swami Satchidananda, était à ma connaissance un célèbre Yogi accompli qui maîtrisait aussi bien le Hatha-Yoga que le Raja-Yoga.

I’ve meditated for over 50 years and had some questions. My brother is a Hindu monk who studied in India. He recommended this book, keep reading it and it will have enlightenment for me.

This might be the 5th time I read this book, and I could say this I’ve learned a lot about myself and really implemented what was written. If you’re really into learning about yourself, then this is the book!
