Autorenporträt
Swami Swatmarama, a yogic sage of the 15th century, is best known for his seminal work on yoga, 'Hatha Yoga Pradipika' (Light on Hatha Yoga), which he composed to elucidate the teachings of his predecessor, Swami Gorakhnath, and the ancient discipline of Hatha Yoga. Delving into the profound aspects of physical as well as subtle aspects of yoga practice, Swatmarama's Hatha Yoga Pradipika stands alongside the 'Yoga Sutras' of Patanjali and the 'Bhagavad Gita' as one of the foundational texts of yoga. His work is not just a manual of asanas, but extends to pranayama (breathing exercises), mudras (gestures), and meditation, offering a holistic guide for spiritual growth through physical well-being. Swami Swatmarama emerges as an authoritative figure within the Nath Panth, a development within the tantric Shaivism tradition. His literary contribution largely influenced subsequent yoga literature and practice. His teachings transcend mere physicality, aiming for the liberation of the self through disciplined practice (sadhana), thus embodying the essence of the yoga tradition's diverse yet convergent paths towards self-realization.
