Guest guest Posted August 15, 2000 Report Share Posted August 15, 2000 Thanks Godfrey, I was hoping to hear your comments. Could you or anyone else recommend further reading on yama and niyama? I would like to learn more about them. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2000 Report Share Posted August 16, 2000 A couple of hours ago I happened to read godfreydev's post on the yamas and niyamas in asana and prnayama. I then did my practice the post in mind and found it much enhanced. It's nice to be reminded that there is much more to work on than bending way over (especially when one has recently tweaked a hamstring, maybe from not enough svadhyaya in asana?). Anyway, thanks, Mr. D.<br><br>This brings up a question. Has anyone out there thought of writing a commentary on the Yogasutras with an Ashtanga audience in mind? Or is the bulk of a such a work present in a text already published? Something perhaps that includes the author's personal commentary, along with some explanation of the views/practices of major teachers (Jois, BNS Iyengar, Miller, Freeman, etc.), and maybe even a bit of recent Ashtanga history? Surely such a work would be greatly appreciated, even if it were publicly lambasted by some purists.<br><br>Peace and Good,<br>Homer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
