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.
