Recenzii

'Thinking anew with Patanjali: this is a modern-day translation and meditation on the spiritual praxis and philosophy of the Yogasutras, the great ancient Indian classic. Daniel Raveh's refreshing book is, at the same time, a sensitive reflection on meaningful cross-cultural and cross-epochal translation which he sees as a process of creative transformation, a process inevitable for retaining significance.'
'Raveh's thoughtful reflections on the nature of translation, his investigation of five key themes: practice, dispassion, ignorance, clinging, and yogic knowledge, as well as his skilfully rendered new translation of the Yoga Sutra make this book indispensible reading for anyone with a serious interest in the study of classical Yoga.'
'As a philosophical work attempting to answer some questions that Patañjali's YS raises, it is a refreshing change from the recent trend of Yoga books dealing mainly with "physical-Yoga".'
'Exploring the Yogasutra presents a new, engaging perspective on Patanjali from a philosophical point of view. It is a contribution invaluable for anybody interested in this authoritative source of Yoga theory.'
'Raveh undertakes an extraordinary clarification of the old, profound, paradoxical, often mysterious inward-seeking inwardness of the Yogasutra...Altogether, the book is a great didactic success in the translation of the thought and practice of one culture into the terms of another.'
