Dating back to India of the second century B.C., the yoga sutras constitute a complete manual for the study and practice of yoga. This volume explains the eight limbs of the discipline: restraint, observances, posture, breath control, withdrawal from the senses, attention, meditation, and stillness. Charles Johnston's translation of the ancient texts offers modern readers a straightforward, easy-to-follow interpretation of guidelines for living a meaningful, purposeful life.
