Yoga Philosophy of Patanjali with Bhasvati-Hariharananda Aranya
People
gibly speak of Yoga without realising that it forms an integral part of a
composite Samkhya-yoga philosophy, the oldest philosophical system in the
world. Samkhya provides the theoretical base without which one can neither
fathom the terse aphorisms of Patanjali and their masterly interpretations by
Vyasa nor derive full benefit through practising them mechanically. In the
last two millenniums many learned commentators have elaborated on these
texts. Swami Hariharanada Aranya's commentary with further elucidation by his
disciple and worthy successor Swami Dharmamegha Aranya is refreshingly
different reflect¬ing, as it does, their own realisations, which make
Samkhya-yoga a living precept today. The book has been hailed a classic since its publication in 1963. It has gained in content and popularity with each new edition. This time additions include, among others, Bhasvati, another unique commentary of the author in Sanskrit on the same ancient texts and its first ever English translation. His thought provoking 'Concept of Isvara in Samkhya Philosophy' is also included. Thus enriched, the book should be valuable to scholars and spiritual seekers. |
