Please join us in this lecture series on the Yoga Sutra with award-winning international scholar, author, and professor Dr. K. S. Balasubramanian. The Yoga Sutra of Patanjali is a series of Sanskrit aphorisms designed as a step-by-step guide to self-knowledge. Patanjali’s work marks the beginning of classical yoga, unifying various pre-classical practices and schools of thought into one brilliantly coherent system. His eight-part system is studied and practiced all over the world today. Hatha yoga as we know it today is indebted to its legacy. Patanjali made a standardized and comprehensive yoga system which attends to all the aspects of theory and practice.

The speaker series will take place Thursdays - April 7, 14, 21, and 28 at 7:00 p.m. Come to as many as you are able to.
