While Yoga has a worldwide following and has become a household word today, with some 300 million people practicing Yoga in the world, it has also undergone significant contextual changes. Yoga’s moorings in deep philosophical insight, and grounding as an indispensable aid in living a Dharmic life, has perhaps receded into the background, while its potential for fitness, health and wellness have taken center stage.
The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali is a foundational text for understanding the world of Yoga. It is not widely known that most of the Yoga Sutra text, deals with understanding the ‘self’ (one’s limited identity and personhood) referred to as antaranga yoga, and transcending the self to realize the “Self” which is known as parama antaranga yoga.
In this Webinar, we will examine some of the profound insights that Patañjali’s Yoga Sutra has to offer in these realms and lay the foundations for an authentic understanding of the world of Yoga. We will also touch upon the upcoming courses at HUA, which will delve much deeper into the world of Yoga.
