Essential reading for those looking to customize their practice to
life's changing needs.
- Includes sections on vedic chanting, throat breathing, and
exercises for women.
- Presents a unique portrait of T. Krishnamacharya and his
teachings.
For 33 years Ramaswami studied with the legendary T.
Krishnamacharya, teacher of B.K.S. Iyengar, Pattabhi Jois, and
T.K.V. Desikachar and perhaps the most influential figure in the
field of yoga in the last 100 years. Since that time he has
developed Krishnamacharya's teaching into what may be the most
highly evolved program available for making yoga a way of life,
rather than simply a routine. In seventeen chapters Ramaswami lays
out the whole philosophy of yoga, including principles for right
living, postures, breathing practices, meditation practices, and
mental disciplines.
Key to Ramaswami's teaching is the focus on adapting yoga to
individual needs and to different stages of life. During the early
part of life, learning yoga as a physical art form is most
beneficial for the self-confidence and discipline it instills. In
middle age, yoga should focus on physical therapy and maintaining
optimum health as far into life as possible. In the last stages of
life, the practitioner will be ready to focus on the ultimate goal
of yoga--true understanding of the philosophy behind it and the
realization of truth.
