Yoga, Power, and Spirit

In "Yoga, Power, and Spirit," best-selling author and shaman Alberto Villoldo offers a fresh interpretation of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, the classic Hindu text on yoga philosophy. He challenges traditional readings by exploring the Sutras' origins in ancient oral traditions that honored the Divine Feminine, a perspective often obscured in later masculine interpretations. Villoldo draws parallels between the accessible spiritual practices of yoga and his fieldwork with high shamans of the Americas, demonstrating how profound self-realization is attainable without requiring gurus or extensive study.
