Yogopanisadah = The Yoga Upanisad's Sanskrit Text With the Commentary of Sri Upanisad-Brahmayogin, English Translation, Notes & Index

T.R. Srinivasa Ayyangar (Translator) Madhusudan Penna (Introduction)

Synopsis

There are twenty Yoga Upanishad which deal with the theory and practice of yogic techniques. Traditionally, each of the Yoga Upanishad is attached with a particular Veda merely on the basis of the benedictory verse present in the verse. In these text several types of Ypoga are elaborated such as Mantra Yoga, Laya Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Raja Yoga and Samadhi Yoga and other. The most striking Feature of the Yoga Upanisad is that most of these Upanisads texts describe the Hatha yoga practices as mean to attain the absolute Brahman, the Brahman without a second, the Brahman without any adjuncts to attribute. Thoight each of the Upanishads does not deal with all the necessary topics of Yoga, all of the necessary topics of Yoga are however dealt with in these texts at large.

About the author

Madhusudan Penna

Dr. Madhusudan was born in Andhra Pradesh and studied Sanskrit under reputed scholars in Sri Venkateshwara Vedanta Vardhini Sanskrit College, Hyderabad (A.P.). He graduated from that college in 1987 with Navya Nyaya as special subject. For securing highest marks in graduation, he was awarded a gold medal. Further Sanskrit study he made from Osmania University and obtained M.A, M. Phil and Ph. D. degrees securing gold medals at all levels. He studied Abhinavagupta's Gita commentary for M.Phil degree and Narayanatirtha's Yoga commentary for Ph.D degree. He had been to the Netherlands in 1992 for Sanskrit propagation. Dr.Madhusudan's love for Sanskrit can be understood from his original works in Sanskrit. His Yogasutrasara in 250 verses was published from Sanskrit Academy, Hyderabad. His two Sanskrit poems were published by Devavani Parishad, New Delhi and two Sanskrit poems were published by Gunjaravam, Ahmednagar (Maharashtra). Presently, he has been serving the Dept. of Sanskrit, Kavikulaguru Kalidasa Sanskrit University, Ramtek, Nagpur (Maharashatra). He has submitted articles at various national and international conferences in India and actively engaged in creative work and research. Being an example of rare combination of both sastra knowledge and modern outlook, Dr. Madhusudan desires to unearth the gems of ancient texts. The present work is an outcome of several years' sincere study of 'Yogasiddhantacandrika of Narayanatirtha' which opens the hidden treasury of yoga to students and scholars alike.
