mr king... patanjali was an Hindu.... Gods mentioned in his book Patanjali yogasutra is Lord Bhrahma, Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu... and they are at the core of Hinduism.... Stop making Yoga and yoga sutra western..... Yod westerner dont own anything this pure and holy like Yogasutras...... This book discourage the feelings of Hinduism.... I m not against any othe religion... but yes what is ours is oura.... dont try to take it away and present in the way your westerner people feels like its theirs..... There is nothing of these sort like peace of mind and body teachings in bible...... so please dont try to make your own version of yoga and hurt the sentiments of hindu people......

It changed my life forever. I know now that yoga is completely outside of my beliefs and I can use that as an excuse to not do yoga with my sister

Nice book but not complete yoga description
