In this podcast, Dr. Rajvanshi talks about the science of Patanjali Yoga Sutras. Patanjali Yoga Sutras, written almost 2500 years ago, are the earliest treatise on yoga. In the book, Sage Patanjali enunciates in a scientific manner how to control thought - a process which makes the mind powerful enough so that when it focuses on any subject its complete knowledge results. The comparison of Patanjali sutras with modern science is neither to belittle the latter nor to glorify our ancient tradition–both are important in their own way, but to show that all great thoughts originate from the same Knowledge Space irrespective of person and time of their discovery.
