BTW, he lives in Canada. There's very little one can complain about regarding this book. Feuerstein is a writer of clarity and concision, thoughtfulness, depth and sensitivity, not to mention vast knowledge--the man may have read just about everything on the subject. The only, ONLY gripe I might have is a slight tendency-which, frankly, coming from the pen of a scholar is rather ironic-toward a sort of textual fundamentalism. For example, writing on the Mahabharata he repeatedly refers to the war the poem describes as the greatest ever fought on Indian soil and even speaks of "the godman" Krishna as a historical person.
This kind of thing comes up more than once-and invariably caused my face to screw up in an incredulous squint-so I have to assume Feuerstein actually believes these things. Suffice to say, I would grant Krishna less historicity than Moses or Lao-tzu, and as for the battle, while I suspect the story has its roots in some historical event s , I doubt its fidelity to facts in any way exceeds that of the Iliad or the romances of King Arthur.
That being said, buy the book! You won't regret it; Feuerstein's writings will lead you on to richer yogic horizons!

Nov 07, Louise Silk rated it it was amazing Shelves: This book answers each and every why I have ever asked myself about my yoga practice. There is a complete history from ancient to modern times. There are clear reasons for each of the practices and what I can expect to accomplish. There is a wonderful section on shavasana with deep information I have not seen anywhere. This is the book holds the answer to why yoga is important for anyone who truly wants to experience the personal and its connection to the universe.
A Must read for an practitione This book answers each and every why I have ever asked myself about my yoga practice. A Must read for an practitioner. Jan 13, Cyndee rated it it was amazing. I am re-reading this book as part of an online course given by the author. This book is unlike many of Feuerstein's other Yoga texts--it covers territory similar to his The Yoga Tradition but the chapters are short and relate to a very specific Yoga topic. It is also highly readable. It would serve as a wonderful learning text for beginner or experienced yogi. This book is a must-accompaniment to anyone who wants to understand all of Yoga.

It covers many topics in Yoga, all in short essay form a few pages per topic. No graphs; text only.

Which may be limiting in its descriptive power. This book decidedly covers nearly all things outside of a typical asana-oriented yoga book: With only a few exceptions, it is well-balanced and well-resourced. Jul 09, Ron Krumpos rated it really liked it. Georg Feuerstein is one of the foremost experts on yoga, both of Hinduism and Buddhism, in the world. He has more than 10 books on Goodreads. Born in Germany, he now resides in Canada. Nov 30, Tamara Bliss rated it it was amazing. Georg Feuerstein is was the quintessential North American yoga author and expert on yoga philosophy. His interpretations are honest, deep and true.
His writing style makes the ancient texts accessible. This book shows us the relevance of yoga's teachings in our current culture, addressing the world's issues and society. Mar 14, Peter added it.
