Demystifying Patanjali: The Yoga Sutras: The Wisdom of Paramhansa Yogananda as Presented by his Direct Disciple, Swami Kriyananda Paperback – June 1, 2013

If you're a follower of Paramahansa Yogananda, and if you're looking for the most authentic information about Patanjali, then this is the book for you. I read this book in a day, or so, because the information was so fulfilling and easy to understand with information applicable to daily life. I recommend this read!!!

Swami Kriyananda does a great job explaining the scriptures in a way that is clear and applicable to daily life. This translation of the scripture is excellent as well. This is a must read for anyone who would like any direction at all on their spiritual journey.

I find this book easy to understand. Terms are defined, and the author provides a lot of historical context for his presentation. Since it's the first book I've read on Patanjali's teachings, I don't know how it compares with others. I gave it four stars for its clarity, depth, and presentation.

how to know god is better translation from sanskrit...isherwood

My conscious had some pangs of regret when I heard that the author was a shyster. But what the heck...he’s only human ? Demystified for sure !

Lots of good info in the book. Look past the authors personal feelings and just pull out the golden nuggets. Well worth the money.

deep and cloudy Truth and instruction made clear. You can tell it was processed with love and care. Thank you!

Easy to read and understand
