Raja Yoga Sutras with Sarasvati
March 14th – April 4th, Saturdays 1pm-2.30pm; $85
Raja Yoga is a branch of yoga often referred to as the psychology of yoga. In this course, we will discuss selected verses from Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, a foundational text of classical Yoga philosophy. Topics of study will include the nature and functions of the mind, the five categories of mental modifications (vrttis), the sources of suffering (kleshas), and the eightfold path of Yoga (ashtanga yoga).
Some familiarity with Yoga philosophy is helpful, but the course is designed to be welcoming and accessible to beginners
Teacher: Sarasvati is a senior teacher in the Sivananda Yoga organization and currently serves as the director of the Sivananda Yoga Center in Toronto. She has taught the Raja Yoga Sutras in Advanced Teacher Training courses and is happy to share the knowledge with students through discussions and study of the classical yoga texts and commentaries.
