<b>A classic work of Indian philosophy that succinctly spells out how the mind works and what is needed to attain liberation</b><br> <br> Compiled in the second or third century CE, the <i>Yoga-Sutra</i> is a road map of human consciousness—and a particularly helpful guide to the mind states one encounters in meditation, yoga, and other spiritual practices. It expresses the truths of the human condition with great eloquence: how we know what we know, why we suffer, and how we can discover the way out of suffering. <br> <br> Chip Hartranft''s fresh translation and extensive, lucid commentary bring the text beautifully to life. He also provides useful auxiliary materials, including an afterword on the legacy of the <i>Yoga-Sutra</i> and its relevance for us today.
