About
Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

The Yoga Sutras were supposed to have been written by Patanjali sometime between the fourth century B.C. to the fourth century A.D. At this site I'm quoting from an English translation of the Yoga Sutras, entitled How to Know God: The Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali. The sutras themselves are quite terse, but the authors (Prabhavananda and Isherwood) provide an extensive commentary on their meaning.
