Description

“Whether we think of yoga as only the practice of postures or the whole plethora of yoga practices–from the ethical tenets of yama and niyama to meditation, from pranayama to chakra visualizations–Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras contains a lot more Tantric wisdom than religious tenets from the four ancient Vedas. In other words, yoga is a spiritual science much more than a religious belief system.” — From A Brief History of Yoga, by Ramesh Bjonnes
Meeting Time: Thursdays, from 6-8pm Eastern Standard Time
