    Commentaries around

    “Our continued effort
    with the breath in Āsana
    is that which helps to enliven
    our various levels of interaction
    with our inner and outer worlds as
    expressed through the Pañca Maya.”
    – Paul Harvey on Yoga Sūtra Chapter Two verse 47

    “From Yoga Sūtra Chapter Two verse 47
    Krishnamacharya taught that the
    common denominator for successfully uniting
    both aspects of relaxation and the infinite
    within the practice of Āsana is the breath.
    He saw it as continued effort
    and synonymous with giving life.
    The continued effort of the breath is that which gives life.”
    – Paul Harvey on Yoga Sūtra Chapter Two verse 47
