The Essential Yoga Sutra

After much anticipation and a few publishing delays Geshe Michael and Christie's latest book is out. The Essential Yoga Sutra: Ancient Wisdom for Your Yoga is a commentary on the text which is the foundation of all yoga traditions, the Yoga Sutra by Master Patanjali.

I am quite excited to read this. Geshe-la and Christie have been teaching about and in the yoga world for a few years now and have done a lot for both yoga practioners and Buddhists, who at one time seemed disparate, but now are often one and the same. Yoga is a very large part of Diamond Mountain. In fact, it is required. One part of being a student at DMU is meditation, study, debate, and a daily channel practice, which usually translates as yoga.

You can order the book through our friend Benjamin Worden who has set up Evolution Ink and will be grateful for your business. If there are any early reviews please email me or simply post them in a comment on this site. You can give a book report and make a diorama from a shoe box.
