The sutras themselves are in the original Devanagari , with transliteration, translation and succinct, accessible, grounded commentary, that draws upon author and artist Melissa Townsend's 30+ years of spiritual practice, including meditation, yoga asana , Sanskrit, study of yogic and philosophical texts, Buddhism, and numerous other Eastern and Western philosophies and often their associated languages. The book is as impeccably accurate and useful as it is lovely. A graduate of Brown University, Phi Beta Kappa, Magna Cum Laude , along with her years of spiritual practice and study of Sanskrit, Ms. Townsend's many years' experience as an internationally known psychic, speaking to people one-on-one about their lives, informs her writing as well, helping to make the commentary clear, eminently practical, human and delightfully accessible. Wry and warm, as well as knowledgeable, her writing brings an important yogic text into clear focus, while the artwork takes the book to an entirely new level. The paintings are profoundl
