The practical and philosophical foundations of Raja Yoga, the most important text in Eastern religion, translated by the great Swami Vivekananda, with his illuminating commentary.
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali were composed by the famous Indian sage sometime between the first and third centuries CE. These lay the practical and philosophical foundations of Raja Yoga in aphorisms that clearly mark out the path to Self-Realisation. Their influence has been profound throughout the centuries and they are just as relevant for yoga philosophy and practice today as when they were written.
