Description
Swami Kripalu’s Ladder of Yoga
A book for practicing Yoga like Swami Kripalu did.
Swami Kripalu (1913-81) was an Indian saint and social activist who experienced a profound energetic awakening in mid-life and spent his last four decades intensively practicing asana, pranayama, and meditation in a quest to scale the ladder of yoga to its highest rung. This is the first book to present his teachings on yoga and a host of related esoteric topics in a straightforward manner that enables them to be sensibly applied on the mat and cushion by today’s practitioners.
The book also traces the efforts of the author and a cadre of other Westerners – sometimes effectively, other times not – to progress along Swami Kripalu’s path of yoga through the type of systematic practice he valued so highly. Presented in contemporary language, these are potent teachings true to the roots of historic yoga to bring its mysteries alive for today’s students.
