Reseña del libro "The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali - A Visual Meditation: Book Two: Sadhana Padah (en Inglés)"
An Absolutely Stunning Yoga Sutras Art Book!Artist, Yoga practitioner, Sanskrit teacher, and internationally known psychic, Melissa Townsend brings us the second in her series of translations of the Yoga Sutras, combining gorgeous, powerfully evocative images for each sutra, with clear, accessible translation and commentary. Wry and warm, as well as knowledgeable, her writing brings an important yogic text into clear focus, while the artwork takes the book to an entirely new level. The paintings are profoundly beautiful: meditative, mysterious, visionary. "The power of Sanskrit is to open ever deepening awareness in the Heart of our Being. That inner beauty is revealed to us by Melissa Townsend in her extraordinary paintings."-Krishna DasBOOK TWO, SADHANA PADAH, "ON PRACTICE," is probably the most well-known of the 4 books comprising the Yoga Sutras. Book Two introduces the 8 limbs of practice, and contains the sutras about the yamas, niyamas, asana and pranayama."A Yogi without the Sutras is like spaghetti without the sauce. Melissa has done something great sharing her artistic gifts and pairing them with a Sutra. You can study the two matched pages, then close your eyes and allow them to work on the subtle consciousness."-Sri Dharma MittraHer inspired paintings convey the teachings in visual language. There is a sense of being invited in to the hidden structure of the Yoga Sutras. The book is beautiful and fresh.--Lorin Roche, Author, The Radiance Sutras
