Patanjali For Western Readers is a book that aims to make the ancient Indian text, the Yoga Aphorisms of Patanjali, more accessible to modern readers. The author, Daniel R.

The book provides a paraphrased version of the original text, which is divided into four sections: Samadhi Pada, Sadhana Pada, Vibhuti Pada, and Kaivalya Pada. Each section discusses different aspects of yoga, including the nature of the mind, the practice of meditation, and the attainment of spiritual liberation. The book also includes an introduction that provides background information on Patanjali and the Yoga Aphorisms, as well as a glossary of terms to help readers understand the text. Overall, Patanjali For Western Readers is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about the ancient practice of yoga and the teachings of Patanjali.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
