The Yoga S¿tras of Patañjali II

Written almost two thousand years ago by the Indian sage Patañjali, the Yoga Sutras presents the reader with a set of practical instructions for living a deeply meaningful life. Patañjali's text contains 196 terse statements, or "

sutras" (literally "threads"), sewn together into four distinct chapters. 



The book you hold in your hands is the second chapter of Yoga Sutras, entitled the Sadhana Pada, or the Chapter on Practice. In Yoga philosophy, the practitioner who skillfully commits the body, breath, and mind to discipline is called a "sadhaka" from the root, "sadh," which means to "go straight toward a goal." The Sadhana Pada outlines the practices that lead straight to success, starting with kriya yoga before moving onto the first five limbs of a¿¿a¿ga yoga.
