Author Biography
One of the most distinguished living Orientalists, Alain Danielou spent more than twenty years in India studying music and philosophy with eminent pandits of the Hindu tradition. Of special interest is his insight into the unique requirements and capacities of today's aspirant and the specific practices appropriate to Western students. Danielou is also the author of the acclaimed Gods of India, Shiva and Dionysus, and While the Gods Play.
Reviews"[Yoga] will appeal to the serious student of yoga in any tradition. It is not a fluffy yoga exercise manual. It contains the distilled knowledge of thousands of years, but is totally relevant to the present day." * Jennifer Hoskins, New Dawn *
