Guest guest Posted August 22, 2001 Report Share Posted August 22, 2001 Should it be that anyone's mill is in need of grist, here's something a bit controversial, outside the bounds of personalities in this club, and pertinent to the study of astanga yoga:<br><br><a href=http://www.vri.dhamma.org/archives/ddyoga.html target=new>http://www.vri.dhamma.org/archives/ddyoga.html</a><br><br>The argument is made that patanjali's yoga sutras have very little -- or nothing -- to do with the practice of astanga yoga.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 Goenka is a somewhat controversial character, even in the Buddhist community. I thought his address to the yoga school was worthwhile reading, as it asks us to critically (rather than reverently) examine the scriptures of yoga and Buddhism.<br><br>I can't really say that his opinion is "un-Buddhist." I think he makes some compelling points, though I don't agree with all his opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
