Abstract:
Patañjali’s Yogasūtra stands out to be the most formidable treatise on yoga philosophy and practice. The Aṣṭāṅgās, the eight-fold limbs/ paths as ascribed in Yogasūtra, form the basic tenets of all the different tributaries and ramifications of Yoga traditions developed as of today. Essentially the most important writings on Rāja yoga are those on the Yogasūtra and the Aṣṭāṅgās in it. These works come under two chronological categories, the first by authors during the middle of the first millennium CE, consisting of ‘Bhāṣyas’ (commentaries) and ‘Vivaraṇas’

Abstract:
One of the key concepts in Buddhist meditation is mindfulness which has recently been introduced into new environments, including contemporary yoga. This paper identifies some of the parameters involved in the rather seamless integration of Buddhist mindfulness and yoga and explores whether this synthesis is an ancient one, already found in the oldest recorded text on yoga, the Yogasūtra, by investigating if the word smṛti, usually translated as “memory”, can refer to mindfulness. This would imply that mindfulness may have been a component of ancient Yogic practices, although perhaps lost at s

Abstract:
El Pātañjalayogaśāstra es el texto fundante de lo que se conoce como el yoga-darśana. Está constituido por dos niveles textuales: un sūtra, el célebre Yogasūtra atribuido a Patañjali, y un bhāṣya o comentario atribuido tradicionalmente a Vyāsa. La autoría de los dos textos ha sido discutida ampliamente por los especialistas e incluso se ha propuesto la teoría de que ambos son obra de un mismo acto de composición que habría ocurrido alrededor del año 400 e.c. En el presente trabajo se ofrece una traducción anotada, junto con una introducción que lo contextualiza, de un pasaje del Pātañjalayogaś

Abstract:
AbstractOn the basis of Patañjali′s classic definition of yoga in Yogasūtra 1.2 yoga usually has been interpreted as a practice to calm down the restless agitations of our embodied minds during their entanglement with the material world. A yoginī thus has to turn her senses away from the outside world in order to unite herself with the absolute that dwells in all of us. In line with David G. White one could call such a classic view of the Indian body a closed model of the same. It is the aim of this text to offer an alternative reading of the Indian body as an open system, in which a body is u

Abstract:
The “inner organ” (antaḥkaraṇa) in the Indian philosophical school called Sāṃkhya is applied in two different experiential contexts: in the act of transcendence according to the path of yoga explored in the Yogasūtras of Patañjali (ca. 350 CE) and in the process of identity shift that occurs in possession by a deity in a broader range of Indian cultural practices. The act of transcendence will be better understood if we look at the antaḥkaraṇa through an emic lens, which is to say as an actual organ that is activated by experiential shifts, rather than as a concept or explanation that is indic

Abstract:
Abstract Vedānta is one of the oldest philosophical systems. While there are many detailed commentaries on Vedānta, there are very few mathematical descriptions of the different concepts developed there. This article shows how ideas from theoretical computer science can be used to explain Vedānta. The standard ideas of transition systems and modal logic are used to develop a formal description for the different ideas in Vedānta. The generality of the formalism is illustrated via a number of examples including saṃsāra, Patañjali’s Yogasūtras, karma, the three avasthās from the Māṇḍūkya Upaniṣad

Abstract:
Over the past thirty years, academic dialogue on the relationships between science and religion within historical, theological and philosophical contexts has flourished, with the importance of this dialogue being positively expressed. In particular, at the intersection of psychology and religion there is a triple relationship between these domains and in this thesis, we bring the Hindu tradition of Classical Yoga into this discourse, aiming for a psychological understanding of the Yogasutra of Patañjali as the primary text of this tradition. With a 'psychology in religion' perspective we ident
