Sivananda Buried Yoga

Panning the one-dimensional keep-fit view of yoga in the west and advocating a return to the depth and breadth of yoga's true roots, yogi manmoyanand's controversial new book exceeded all expectations and became an instant bestseller - not only at Watkins, but across the globe.

Why have the yoga teachers of the modern world chosen to reduce yoga to a system of gymnastic fitness and compromised its true essence by completely distorting it to fit into the modern lifestyle? Is asana all about physical exercises? Is pranayama all about curing diseases? Is meditation all about stress management? After practising many years of the modern therapeutic styles of yoga with some of the most renowned contemporary teachers with their numerous claims of authenticity, the author's incessant desire for spiritual-awareness was never addressed. Until, one day an old ascetic perceived the urgency of his quest and took him to the remote caves of the Himalayas. "Sivananda Buried Yoga" is about personal journey of the author & the discoveries of the stunning realities of yoga.
