    Commentaries around

    “You have to practice in such a way that day to day the breath gets longer and longer.”
    – From T Krishnamacharya’s composition, the Yoga Rahasya

    “My father never acknowledged that he discovered anything
    even when I have seen that it was he who discovered.
    He has discovered postures but he would say that it was his teacher who taught him.
    Rarely has he said that it was his “original” work.
    At the same time, I have seen him – because I am his son also –
    composing some verses and correcting those verses for the Chandas (Metre) and all that and finally saying –
    this is what Nathamuni is saying and this is what my teacher says!
    I tend to think that the Nathamuni’s Yoga Rahasya that he taught us is quite likely to be a combination of his own commentary and the lessons he received though he would not accept it.”
    – ‘The Study of Yoga Rahasya‘ – Extract from an Interview with TKV Desikachar in KYM Darśanam, a publication from Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram vol 1 no 1 Feb 1991.
