Synopsis "Yoga Mala "

The seminal treatise and guide to Ashtanga yoga by the master of this increasingly popular discipline One of the great yoga figures of our time, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois brought Ashtanga yoga to the West more than thirty years ago. Based on flowing, energetic movement coordinated with the breath, Ashtanga and the many forms of vinyasa yoga that grow directly out of it have become the most widespread and influential styles practiced today. Yoga Mala--a "garland of yoga"--is Jois's authoritative guide to Ashtanga. In it, he outlines the ethical principles and philosophy underlying the discipline, explains important terms and concepts, and guides the reader through Ashtanga's Sun Salutations and the subsequent primary sequence of forty-two asanas, or poses, precisely describing how to execute each position and what benefits each provides. It is a foundational work on yoga by a true master. To coincide with publication of Guruji: A Portrait of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois Through the Eyes of His Students by Guy Donahaye and Eddie Stern, this new edition of Yoga Mala includes a foreword by Jois's grandson Sharath Rangaswamy, currently co-director of the famous school Jois founded in Mysore, the Ashtanga Yoga Institute.

Sri K. Pattabhi Jois (1915–2009) fue un influyente maestro indio de yoga y el principal responsable de la difusión del Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga a nivel mundial. Nació en Kaushika, Karnataka, y desde joven estudió sánscrito, filosofía yóguica y yoga bajo la guía de T. Krishnamacharya, considerado el padre del yoga moderno.

En 1948 fundó el Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute en Mysore, donde enseñó durante décadas un método dinámico que sincroniza respiración, movimiento y enfoque mental. A partir de los años setenta, estudiantes occidentales comenzaron a viajar a la India para aprender con él, lo que permitió que el Ashtanga se expandiera internacionalmente e influyera en muchas formas contemporáneas de yoga.

Pattabhi Jois defendía una práctica disciplinada y constante, resumida en su célebre frase: “Practice, and all is coming”. Su legado continúa a través de sus enseñanzas y de la escuela de Mysore, que sigue siendo un referente central del yoga moderno.
