What is How to Know God : The Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali about?
The aphorisms collected in this book, first published in 1953, were composed by Patanjali, a great Indian sage, over 1,500 years ago, and here translated into clear English prose. The accompanying commentary interprets the sayings for the modern world, and in doing so gives a full picture of what yoga is, what its aims are, and how it can be practised. ** Review A rendering at once lively and profoundly instructive of a world classic which ... remains as vividly topical, as realistically to the point, as when it first saw the light. --- --Aldous Huxley, author of Brave New World A beautiful translation, and our personal favorite by far. --Books for Inner Development The Soul does not love; It is Love Itself. It Does not Exist; It is Existence Itself. It does not Know; It is Knowledge Itself.--- Patanjali --Quoted by George Harrison in his final album About the Author The translators have written numerous books on Indian philosophy that speak directly to the western audience. Swami Prabhavananda founded the Vedanta Society of So. California.
