<div>In <i>The Complete Book of Vinyasa Yoga<,</i> Srivatsa Ramaswami presented the full breadth of yogasana teachings as taught by Sri. T. Krishnamacharya (1888–1989) — the father of modern yoga. Now, for the first time, Ramaswami imparts his vast yoga experience and knowledge of Krishnamachara’s distinct vinyasa krama system in an accessible question-and-answer format with experienced California yogi David Hurwitz.<BR><BR>In a beautifully clear and conversational style, Ramaswami and Hurwitz delve deeply into various general and specific topics relating to yoga philosophy and practice, shedding light on even the most confusing concepts. The nearly 240 questions are drawn directly from Hurwitz’s private study with Ramaswami, and include: Does yoga lead to happiness? How do we achieve the famous ahimsa (non-violence)? How does the yogi “see” his soul? What is the role of breath in Asana? Where does willpower come in? and Was Krishnamacharya happy?<BR><BR><i>Yoga Beneath the Surface</i> is the next best thing to studying directly with one of yoga’s true gurus — and a must-read for every serious yoga student.<BR></div>
Industry Reviews
"This may be the most comprehensive and challenging asana guide to be published in decades-perhaps ever....For committed yogis, this is as good as it gets."
