Book Reviews of Light on Pranayama: The Yogic Art of Breathing
Book Review: A timeless classic
Summary: 5 Stars
As is expected from a yoga guru of Iyengar's stature, this book is an immortal and a timeless classic on the life-giving art of Pranayama. Pranayama or breath-control is essential and the only way to stilling the mind and controlling the thoughts. It is ignorant to suggest that it is a "purely physical skill of breathing" as reflected in a comment from one of the earlier reviews. Secondly, only a combination of absurdity and a poverty of intellect can expect that any text on Yoga be completely divested from connections to the Hindu religion. The source and goal of the Hindu religion is Yoga itself and Pranayama is fulfillment of the higher ladders of Hinduism.
