<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Iyengar brings readers this new and more complete understanding of the yogic journey. Written with the depth of this sage's great wisdom, it is the culmination of a master's spiritual genius, a treasured companion to his seminal "Light on Yoga."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>B.K.S. Iyengar--hailed as the Michelangelo of yoga (BBC) and considered by many to be one of the most important yoga masters--has spent much of his life introducing the modern world to the ancient practice of yoga. Yoga's popularity is soaring, but its widespread acceptance as an exercise for physical fitness and the recognition of its health benefits have not been matched by an understanding of the emotional, intellectual, and spiritual development that the yogic tradition can also offer. In <i>Light on Life</i>, B.K.S. Iyengar brings readers this new and more complete understanding of the yogic journey. <p/>Here Iyengar explores the yogic goal to integrate the different parts of the self (body, emotions, mind, and soul), the role that the yoga postures and breathing techniques play in our search for wholeness, the external and internal obstacles that keep us from progressing along the path, and how yoga can transform our lives and help us to live in harmony with the world around us. For the first time, Iyengar uses stories from his own life, humor, and examples from modern culture to illustrate the profound gifts that yoga offers. Written with the depth of this sage's great wisdom, <i>Light on Life</i> is the culmination of a master's spiritual genius, a treasured companion to his seminal <i>Light on Yoga</i>.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Light on Life</i> offers revelations from a lifetime of studying yoga." --<i>The Washington Post</i> <p/>"<i>Light on Life</i> is . . . a rumination on the metaphysics of yoga and the mystery of being alive." --<i>The Baltimore Sun</i> <p/>"Like his other books, <i> Light on Life</i> is rich in yoga philosophy and methodology. But unlike his previous writings, this new book is full of autobiographical anecdotes. . . . [A] formidable will percolates through <i>Light on Lif</i>e." --<i>The New York Times</i> <p/>"Rather than present the yoga postures as he did in <i>Light on Yoga</i>, Mr. Iyengar reveals in <i>Light on Life</i> the 'heart of yoga' that he personally discovered through more than 70 years of disciplined, daily practice . . . [including] the precise ways that yoga can transform our lives and help us live in harmony with the world around us." --<i>Yoga Journal</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>B.K.S. Iyengar is one of the world's leading teachers of yoga and the author of the bestselling yoga book of all time, <i>Light on Yoga.</i> He has taught cultural icons and world leaders as well as thousands of teachers who have taken his modernization and refinement of yoga to every major city in America and to every corner of the world. His classic and bestselling books also include <i>Light on Pranayama, Light on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, </i> and <i>Yoga: The Path to Holistic Health.</i> He was named one of <i>TIME </i>magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2004.
