Description
The preferred names of many yogic asanas – from Virbhadra-asana and Hanuman-asana to Matsyendra-asana, Kurma-asana and Ananta-asana – are in line with characters and personages from Indian mythology. Who have been those mythological characters, what have been their stories, and the way are they hooked up to yogic postures? Devdutt Pattanaik’s latest ebook Yoga Mythology (co-written with global yoga practitioner Matt Rulli) retells the attention-grabbing stories from Hindu, Buddhist and Jain lore that lie in the back of the yogic asanas the arena is aware of so neatly; within the procedure he attracts consideration to an Indic worldview in line with the ideas of eternity, rebirth, liberation and empathy that has nurtured yoga for hundreds of years.
