THE HEART OF YOGA
Developing a Personal Practice
by T. K. V. Desikachar
Order Now

The Heart of Yoga is the first book to present the teachings of revered yogi Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya (1888-1989) from the unique perspective of his son and principal student. Here, T.K.V. Desikachar shows how to use Krishnamacharya's system of Viniyoga TM to develop a personal practice that is responsive to your own needs and adaptable to your age, health, and lifestyle. Krishnamacharya based his teachings on a number of scriptural sources, but of them all he placed the highest value on Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. Heart of Yoga makes available for the first time in the West Desikachar's commentary on Patanjali, as taught to him by his father.
