Four Chapters on Freedom: Commentary on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

Good Book

A must have for every spiritual aspirant. There's a lots of sanskrit terminology so it gets too much to remember names at times but go with the flow and it will become an easy read. Swami satyananda saraswati has best approach when it comes to explaining the spiritual wisdom. There is so much to know and learn from this book, many exercises for the seeker to practice, it is to be noted that many exercises are not explained or given a very short description on how to do as that is not the scope of this book, if one is interested those exercises can be learnt from other books from Bihar School of yoga, Swami Satyananda saraswati himself has written many such books. I am glad to have got this one as well apart from the other books from BSY especially written by Swami Satyananda Saraswati.

Go for it 👍🏽

Really Fantastic Book !!! And, Page and size of this book is outstanding... But, Every book in this publication is unnecessarily thick. There is no need to give so many descriptions. I think the books were created only for business purposes. If the essentials were mentioned, it could have been limited to 100 pages.

This book and Swami Vivekananda's Raja Yoga stand out as exceptionally written books which if studied carefully can definitely change your life and your own approach towards yourself. Patanjali Sutra's are discussed by many, but I found this book which took very careful strides, clearly disclosing the things in very stepwise manner and then without being verbose explained the exact nature of each sutra. And once you complete this book or Vivekananda's Raja Yoga, you are compelled to think that what kind of today modern days Guru and influencers are there and how shallow the concept of successful man is in the present world. This book makes you real steel, given that you have courage to mould yourself to become steel. Mere reading will not do, but persistent learning and enjoying each painful unwanted steps in due course will be your signature of success with trainings given here. This book if rightly followed can create great citizens and can build a great nation.

Good paper quality and commentary

I read this and the "Conquest of Mind" by the same auther/writer. It has changed my entire state of mind for good. Suffering is reduced to nothing. Now I can watch my mind. I am now able to become an observer of my Body and Mind and not the Body and Mind. Must read books for all. I will be reading it many times. I find deeper and deeper meaning every time I ready these books. It is written in a very logical sense that any one can understand it very easily. I highly recommend these books.

Probably best commentary on Yoga Sutras of Pathanjali by Swami Sathyananda Saraswati. The author established Bihar School of Yoga and written many wonderful books on Yoga - each one a gem. My reverence to his work.

This is one of the best commentaries available on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. This book is not for Sunday yoga enthusiasts who care only about asanas and nothing else. It is packed with yoga philosophy and delves deep into the subject matter. Bihar School of Yoga knows how to produce in-depth commentaries and share knowledge you can find practically nowhere else

Great interpretation! Easy to understand and grasp! Libro muy facile de leer u comprender las site as! Muy Feliz con esta compra!

It’s THE book you have to read if you are a yoga lover. Definitely well written and enlightening. Loved it.
