The Real History of Hatha Yoga from an Akhara Monk

In the mass consciousness, hatha yoga is perceived as an ancient Indian teaching that supposedly allows one to reach spiritual heights through physical exercises. This book shows that this teaching is neither ancient, nor spiritual, and not even entirely Indian. Hatha yoga is based on the exercises of Indian wrestlers and Western bodybuilding, and it was created for quite pragmatic purposes - as calisthenics for combat akharas. In the 20th century, it was reformed in the wake of the Indian national liberation movement, and in this form, hatha yoga came to the West. This book presents an unbiased view of the history and essence of hatha yoga from a Ukrainian who in 2004 received individual sannyasa diksha from Somnath Giriji, Mahamandaleshwar of the Sri Panch Dashnam Juna akhara in his main Himalayan ashram, has been given the name Bhole Baba Giri, and thus became a full-fledged member of one of the oldest Hindu akharas. Over more than 30 years of studying Hinduism and yoga, including more than 7 years of living in India itself, I have encountered conflicting views on the reasons for the emergence of hatha yoga and its actual goals, as well as different attitudes towards it from both Westerners and Hindus themselves.

The true practical essence of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras

This is not just another translation of the Yoga Sutras from Sanskrit. You may discover for the first time the hidden meaning of sutras 1.17, 2.47, 3.4, and many others. The distinctive features of this edition are, firstly, a carefully verified and meaningful translation, executed in a manner that preserves and conveys the original meaning of the sutras without confusing, quasi-philosophical formulations. Commentaries have been added to the translations of the sutras where additional clarification and comparisons with other yogic and Buddhist texts are needed. Secondly, the practical focus of this edition allows for a true understanding of the method proposed by the author of the Yoga Sutras for achieving the goal of yogic teaching-the development of superconsciousness. Applying this method enables the reader to personally achieve this goal. The book presents the original essence of the concepts of eightfold yoga, including pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana, and samadhi, the true method and meaning of samyama, as well as other aspects of Patanjali's teachings, based on a thorough analysis of the Yoga Sutras and its comparison with the original teachings of the Buddha, which, in turn, were based on the teachings of the ancient yoga of that time. What's important is that the teachings of both Patanjali and Buddha have proven effective in achieving superconsciousness. As the saying goes, they are all-powerful because they are true-and they really are. I hope this comparative analysis of Patanjali's aphorisms and the Buddha's teachings will allow the reader to fill in the gaps in the extremely condensed description of the practice of samadhi in the Yoga Sutras. And perhaps it will encourage them to once again practice this transcendental teaching of Patanjali.
