The Yoga Sutra-s Revealed

Saturday 24th November 2007

at Time to Relax

 

 

"Mastery of yoga is not gauged by how many postures you can do, but by how much your life has improved.”  

Kausthub Desikachar

Over 2,000 years ago, a sage called Patanjali brought together the accumulated wisdom of millennia, passing it on through the definitive text of the Yoga Sutra-s. But only three of the 196 verses relate to the posture practice (Asana)  that is so prevalent in most modern Yoga classes. 

So what about the rest?

The Yoga Sutra-s of Patanjali offer guidance for working towards a better life, offering concepts and models in a complete system for holistic wellbeing. Unfortunately, the deliberately brief verses can be incomprehensible to anyone not fluent in the Sanskrit language, and puzzling even to those who are.  

Join Scott Rennie for a light-hearted day of Yoga practice and discussion, aimed at revealing the mysteries of this ancient text without the risk of bursting blood vessels from mental over-exertion.  

Playing in a relaxed environment, we will take an easy look at the origins, meaning and practical values of the Sutra-s, using simple models that can be applied to everyday life.  

Suitable for all – from complete beginners or seasoned seekers - we will unveil the simplicity in Patanjali’s system for better living, revealing the true message that is often clouded by religious misinterpretations of his great work.

 

Venue: Our day will be held at the Time to Relax Therapy Centre, 1 Langlands Brae, Kilmarnock KA1 2AG.

 Times: Please arrive early for our start at 10am. We will continue until about 4.30pm, with an hour’s break for lunch.

 Arrangements: Please bring your Yoga mat, drinking water and lunch (or plenty to buy nearby).

 Cost: For the day is £40. Numbers will be limited by the venue size, so please book early to avoid disappointment.

 Booking:  Book online below or contact Scott for details of how to pay by cheque.

 

Scott is a Yoga teacher/ therapist, teaching in the Krishnamacharya tradition throughout Glasgow, Ayrshire and beyond. He teaches Yoga philosophy to the CYS Teacher Training course.
