Description
A Conceptual Dictionary of Technical Terms in Yoga
Philosophy comprises 145 technical terms of immense
importance that were identified and extracted from 15
original Sanskrit Yoga Texts such as Yogas
ūtra,
Vy
āsabh
āsya, Tattvavais
āradi, Yogav
ārttika and their
commentaries. To maintain authenticity, the terms have been
explained on the basis of concerned original Sanskrit lines
available in the above texts. The original Sanskrit lines have
been presented in Romanized form and also translated into
Hindi and English. The unique contributory aspect of this
Dicitonary lies in the psychological interpretation of some of
the important terms from Western perspective. The
Dictionary is especially meant for academicians,
practitioners who seek the deeper meaning of Yoga’s symbols
and metaphoric language and serious researchers interested
in the area of Indian Philosophy in general and Yoga and
Western Psychology in particular.
