Edwin F. Bryant's new edition of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali is available from Farrar, Straus & Giroux publishers.

Including Sanskrit text, transliteration and translation of each of the Sutras, followed by commentary from Bryant, professor of Hindu religion and philosophy at Rutgers University, the book is dedicated to all teachers of yoga, "that Patanjali's Sutras may inform and inspire their teachings."

In his forward, B. K. S. Iyengar writes, "I am sure your book will provide the readers with plenty of knowledge so that they may grasp the philosophy behind the subject and move toward the higher aspects of life in their sadhana (practice) … I am sure your good work and expressions, using the attributes of all the earlier commentaries on the Yoga Sutras, will turn out as a study book for hundreds and hundreds of students who have embraced the subject in the West in knowing the light of that hidden illuminative intelligence on the inner self, the atman, and making that light surface and active in the sadhana, which will help their fellow beings experience this unalloyed and untainted bliss with its stream of virtuous (silata) wisdom."
