Yoga Studies:
Yoga Sutras of Patanjali
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali is a philosophical classic. It expresses the truth of the human condition, succinctly shows us how the mind works, and is a practical teaching on how to use the mind to end suffering. We will study each of the four chapters, one by one. The classes will be both lecture and, hopefully, lively discussion of your questions.
Please get the text, The Yoga Sutra of Patanjali: A New Translation and Commentary by Chip Hartranft, Shambhala Classics, 2003. Read the entire book and then re-read Samadhi Pada prior to the first class.
Class Dates: 4 Saturdays
Sept. 25 – Samadhi Pada
Oct. 23
– Sadhana Pada
Nov. 20– Vibhuti Pada
Dec. 18– Kaivalya Pada
