This effort has been undertaken to provide a practical interpretation of Patanjali's famous work, as it applies in today's life and circumstances. It remains an interpretation of yoga and the process of controlling the mind to attain self-realization. At the end of the four chapters, a fifth summary chapter of the work is provided. A translation-only is provided for a quick review of only the translations. Also provided is a glossary of the most commonly used words throughout the work. The hope is that this work may provide some benefit to all who read it.
