Flying Monkeys, Kingly Warriors: Applying Classic Yoga Texts to Daily Life: Part 1

Online

Through storytelling, the Bhagavad Gita and Ramayana epics raise fundamental questions about what it means to be human and what causes suffering. Their common themes and the suggestions offered are useful today in managing relationships, making decisions with confidence, and in facing pain and discomfort with grace. Other classic yoga texts will provide philosophical structure.
