Review: Bryant is criminally unread and underappreciated - Once again, Bryant knocks it out of the park. I've read this book before. Funnily enough, I gifted it to someone else and read their copy a little by little, and used it as a reference, and only bought my own copy yesterday! It has the original sanskrit in the Devanagari script, along with transliteration, then the translation, and then commentary. Apart from the simple, clear translations, the best part about this book is the respect he gives to attribution, tradition and past commentators. He doesn't push his own interpretation. His method is to present the arguments and interpretations of previous reputable and typically indigenous commentators after each line of translation. He then also adds his own thoughts, which are intelligent, thought-provoking and well-informed. This is very similar to the traditional Indian methods of commentary. Like his other book about the Indo-Aryan debate (See my review of his fantastic "Quest for the Origins of Vedic Culture" here: https://www.desertcart.in/gp/review/RYR6TF8MXO711/ref=pdp_new_read_full_review_link?ie=UTF8), his method and attitude is so fair-minded and refreshing that even where you disagree with him, as I did, it is not a deal-breaker, because he quotes and paraphrases other views just as fairly. This is evidence, to me, of a clear mind and a dedication to truthfulness. I'd say this is an essential book for those interested in Yoga, and perhaps especially for Sanskrit scholars and aspiring indologists. Review: The best introduction to the Yoga Sutras - This is a book to read and read again. Most books on yoga are written by those who are masters or at least devoted practitioners. While there is nothing wrong with that it is very useful to read a book written with the objectivity of a dispassionate scholar. Bryant does that and because of that the book is a compelling read for sceptics, beginners and practitioners of yoga. Bryant's scholarship is evident as he references the various commentaries on the yoga sutras through the centuries and explores the connections between various darsanas of Hindu philosophy. And while he is objective on the subject it is evident that Bryant is not a dry academic. He is an ardent admirer of Patanjali's brilliance and that comes through. This book is a must read for those who are interested in yoga at any level. It's a book to possess, read, reread and gift. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #652,098 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #7,654 in Spirituality (Books) #16,587 in Health, Fitness & Nutrition #16,981 in Healthy Living & Wellness | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 709 Reviews | ## Images ![Yoga Sutras of Patanjali - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71m3rlezunL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bryant is criminally unread and underappreciated *by V***N on 1 June 2018* Once again, Bryant knocks it out of the park.

It's a book to possess, read, reread and gift. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it! *by N***A on 8 February 2018* Brilliant book with an in-depth analysis of each sutra. If you're the completely new to Indian Philosophy or Yoga Sutras then this might be a bit overwhelming. But for those familiar with the literature this is a perfect second/third book to pick up and explore the sutras further. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali: A New Edition, Translation, and Commentary - The Bhagavad Gita (Easwaran's Classics of Indian Spirituality) - Light on Yoga: The Bible of Modern Yoga --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/75990467-yoga-sutras-of-patanjali](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/75990467-yoga-sutras-of-patanjali) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-17*
