[Bimo Pratama]

Very amazing information from this book

[Marino]

Small and easy to read.
Made me have a inner conflict between my empirical self and my rational self. No doubt breathing techniques are amazing tools and science starts now acknowledging it, still the author uses way too many time the words "scientific" or "evidence" without letting the reader have any source of confirmation as a reference.
Obviously This is a "western way of thinking comment", but still, the author must admit that this is empirical knowledge, which is also fine, instead of calling it scientific knowledge.

Per me, che faccio yoga da sette anni, è stato un libro comunque interessante. Ci sono molti argomenti che ,solitamente, non vengono approfonditi (come il magnetismo), altri che conoscevo a menadito (come le quattro respirazioni). Si parla anche di levitazione o di metodo per riportare in vita gli annegati, ma resto scettica.
Da leggere.

[Kartikeya Agate]

Succinct points, with interesting techniques and tools. However, there are no warnings about dangers of incorrect practises/pitfalls. The copywriting sure needs improvement.

Overall, an interesting bunch of insights, but this book is not for everyone.

wow. GOTTA COME BACK AND RE-READ AGAIN.

Para um livro tão pequeno estava à espera de algo diferente. As técnicas respiratórias mencionadas são interessantes, mas o autor não explica os seus benefícios nem qual a frequência correcta. Dá definições sucintas de conceitos importantes do yoga, sem os aprofundar, numa estrutura enumerativa pouco esclarecedora. Apesar de interessante, é uma leitura que levanta mais questões do que dá respostas.

[Katrina Lykes]

A very early text on the origins of yoga and traditional yogis. An interesting read for yoga enthusiasts with exercises and breathing techniques, but a bit far removed from modern books on the subject.
