Tantra of the Yoga Sutras by Alan Finger
A readable, accessible version of the ancient classic primer on the practice of yoga--interpreted by a contemporary Tantric yoga master.The Yoga Sutras is Patanjali's classic text on how to experience oneness (samadhi) within yoga practice. Serious yoga students want to bring the wisdom of the Sutras to their practice but often find the text impenetrable and difficult to relate to. Here, yogi and Tantric master Alan Finger offers an interpretation of the Sutras that is clear and immediately relevant-and he shows contemporary practitioners that samadhi is something that they can experience here and now.
Yoga is a process of spiritual evolution, and samadhi is as natural as breathing and available to all, because it is our true nature. Viewed through a Tantric framework, Finger shows us how the Sutras describe the yogic process that both leads us to the experience of samadhi and allows us to weave the wisdom and grace of that experience back into our everyday life.
ALAN FINGER was born and raised in South Africa and was a student of Parmahansa Yogananda, Krishnamacharya, and B. K. S. Iyengar, among others.

He travels and teaches all over the United States, as well as in Canada, Europe, and South Africa. He lives in New York City.
