Download or read book Modern Transnational Yoga written by Hannah K. Bartos and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-03-22 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to address the social organisation of modern yoga practice as a primary focus of investigation and to undertake a comparative analysis to explore why certain styles of yoga have successfully transcended geographical boundaries and endured over time, whilst others have dwindled and failed. Using fresh empirical data of the different ways in which posture practice was disseminated transnationally by Krishnamacharya, Sivananda and their leading disciples, the book provides an original perspective. The author draws upon extensive archival research and numerous fieldwork interviews in India and the UK to consider how the field of yoga we experience today was shaped by historic decisions about how it was transmitted. The book examines the specific ways in which a small group of yogis organised their practices and practitioners to popularise their styles of yoga to mainstream audiences outside of India. It suggests that one of the most overlooked contributions has been that of Sivananda Saraswati (1887-1963) for whom this study finds his early example acted as a cornerstone for the growth of posture practice. Outlining how yoga practice is organised today on the world stage, how leading brands fit into the wider field of modern yoga practice and how historical developments led to a mainstream globalised practice, this book will be of interest to researchers in the field of Yoga Studies, Religious Studies, Hindu Studies, South Asian History, Sociology and Organisational Studies.

Download or read book Shreemad Bhagavad Gita Verses and Translations written by Bhakti Marga and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2016-07-30 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bhagavad Gita presents the timeless discourse about the awareness of the soul, held between Lord Krishna and the dejected warrior, Arjuna, just before the momentous Kurukshetra battle. Yet, as Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda explains, this war is not merely an external conflict from some ancient time, but is also the internal struggle of everyone longing to be closer to the Divine. Fortunately for us, the mere process of reading these verses is, in itself, a powerful act of personal transformation. This book is simply the Bhagavad Gita’s verses and translations without Paramahamsa Vishwananda’s commentary. This is done so that you can come to your own insights and listen to your heart as you read the sacred passages, making your own connections to the issues in your daily life. However, it does provide a complete overview of each chapter, inspired by insights given in Paramahamsa Vishwananda’s ‘Shreemad Bhagavad Gita – A Song of Love’, plus a simplified “family tree” to help those new to the Gita keep track of who is related to who, and at the end, a pronunciation guide to the Sanskrit for those who would like to chant the verses themselves. Paramahamsa Vishwananda is an enlightened spiritual Master who has the unique ability to awaken the soul's inner Light and Love, helping us all advance more quickly toward God-Realisation. His mission, known as Bhakti Marga, gives everyone access to Sri Swami Vishwananda’s timeless teachings of Divine Love and devotion to God, as well as provides opportunities to connect with others on the spiritual path. Besides local centres all over the world, his wisdom can be found in his books, CD’s, YouTube videos, social media, livestreams and online courses. Find out more by visiting bhaktimarga.org.

Download or read book Shreemad Bhagavad Gita written by Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda and published by Bhakti Marga Publications. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 1485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shreemad Bhagavad Gita is one of the most ancient scriptures in the world. Of all the scriptures, it is said that Gita provides the deepest and most practical knowledge about faith, devotion, surrender, detachment, and a release of expectations and ownership over one’s own actions. But like any teaching, time and unqualified minds can distort scriptures like this and misrepresent what is contained within. It is for that purpose that the Lord continuously takes birth on earth in the form of the Guru to revive the true essence of the Gita and to demonstrate the simplicity and power of the divine message of the Lord. One such Master is Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda, and this book is his personal commentary on this timeless knowledge. Included here are over 900 pages of verses, translations, drawings for every chapter, and Paramahamsa Vishwananda's extensive commentary. Perfect for the beginner as well as those who have read other commentaries, this is more than just a book. It is a guiding light that can be applied to every day, to every thought, and to every moment.
