The Glossary of Yoga Texts

Glossary of the Yoga Texts was first published in two separate parts in the years of 1997 and 1998.  As the interest in Yoga is steadily growing, a serious pursuant of Yoga cherishes a keen interest in delving into the subject.  To quench the thirst for knowledge in Yoga, there is no better source than the ancient available texts.  However, these texts are not written in a language easily understandable by the modern men.  Furthermore, there are number of instances where a word does stand for a sophisticated concept often rooted in a strong cultural and philosophical background.  This necessitates elaboration and suitable explanation of the terminologies used.  Thus the need for bringing out this Glossary of the Yoga texts was felt.  Since its publication, this work has met up with steady demand.  In this present Second Edition of this publication we have made very little modification.  Both the Parts I and II are being brought out in one single volume, which the readers will find more of convenience.
