Over the last half millennium, one book has established itself as the classic work on Hatha Yoga the book you are holding in your hands. An Indian yogi named Svatmarama wrote the Hatha Yoga Pradipika in the fifteenth century C.E. Drawing on his own experience and older works now lost, he wrote this book for the student of Yoga. He wrote this book for you.

Contains the original Sanskrit, a new English translation, and photographs of all the asanas.

Woodstock Times

There is a certain magic at work here as if Svatmarama has projected himself through time, expressing himself through Akers.
