Why study the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali?

Because, YSP is not just a manual on yoga philosophy, it is a manual on “life”. A study of this manual will help us understand:

  • How to live a life full of peace, harmony and fulfillment
  • What is stress, what causes stress and how to manage stress
  • How to achieve your maximum potential in life
  • What is mind and how to understand its functioning
  • What causes suffering and how can we prevent suffering
  • How to keep the mind calm and peaceful in the face of adversity
  • What is the goal of life and how to achieve that goal
  • Does the practice of yoga only involve the practice of asana (physical postures) or is there more to this practice?
  • What is self-realization
  • … and much more …
