Book Reviews of The Hatha Yoga Pradipika
Book Review: The best translation available.
Summary: 4 Stars
Brian Akers has done a really good job of translating Svatmarama's extraordinary work. The work is esoteric throughout, and with due respect for this Akers has not included a commentary. Comparing this to Hans Rieker's famous translation, I think Akers has done a better job. His translation is complete, so better than Riekers, but in some places he has still let his intellectual knowledge interfere with the translation. For example instead of 'a handspan' he says 9", the meaning is different. This book is a manual for kundalini, it's extraordinary.
