The Taproot of Yoga: Documentation of the Translation Volume 2

Beschreibung

The Sanskrit for Patanjali's Yoga Sutras has existed unchanged for more than 2000 years. No authentic, accurate, and reliable translation of it exists. Purported 'translations' and interpretations do exist, but they are robustly incorrect, entangled with, and distorted by, the influence of the accumulations of continually evolving teachings of religions and yoga cultures. This book is unique: it avoids those errors by using definitions contemporary with Patanjali and shunning modern influence.This second volume responds to the practical, intellectual, and moral obligation to be transparent about the translation process. For each of 196 sutras it discusses that process for each word and sutra, and how the other books arrived at their versions.

Autor

Beck Anamin's upstate New York life began in 1936. After family life and education, he earned a bachelor's degree in Geology and a master's degree in Management. With a family to support, he was fortunate to be offered a job programming first generation computers, beginning a 38-year career in information technology. In 1970 a huge change came about in his personal life after experiencing several spontaneous spiritual events. Already yearning for that spirituality, he now knew it was possible to attain, and began study and practice of Integral Yoga at Swami Satchidananda's nearby ashram. Two years later, he began what would become 45 years of yoga teaching. Over time additional teaching accreditation and advanced training in pranayama and meditation accumulated. His teaching programs expanded from the core Integral Yoga program, to include meditation, pranayama, and the Yoga Sutras. After retiring in 1998 from his twenty-year job as manager of a large Information Technology Center, he bought a house on a pond in New Hampshire. By then alone, the setting enabled further settling into what he calls 'No One's Land, ' a personal mind space free of outside influences where no one owns people, viewpoints, or the truth. He became further absorbed in his passion for research and writing of three books providing the truths hidden by current representation of the Yoga Sutras, meditation, and evolution. Final editing of each took place in 2017
