Yoga is India’s greatest gift to the world, believed Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, whose contributions to its study have allowed yoga to spread far beyond its native India.
To Krishnamacharya, yoga was a means to improved health; restored well-being and enhanced mental clarity. Krishnamacharya also was a revolutionary innovator who adapted Yoga for modern life, making yoga accessible to each individual, regardless of age, sex, race, culture, station in life, and belief or non-belief.
This is the long-awaited biography and exploration of the work of this teacher of many of yoga’s best known exponents--including BKS Iyengar, Indra Devi and JPS Pattabhi Jois.
It is a lively and affectionate account by Krishnamacharya’s son and student, TKV Desikachar. It traces both Krishnamacharya’s early periods of study and his later work which concentrated on adapting, even revolutionising, yogic practice for modern life.
The book is beautifully produced, with many photographs, both in black and white and colour.
