About the Event
COMMUNITY EVENT / NO COST TO ATTEND
5 - 7pm PST
Friday / December 11
Join Melissa Townsend and Stephanie Snyder for a lively, entertaining, and enlightening discussion of all things Yoga Sutras – in honor of the release of Melissa Townsend’s new Yoga Sūtras Meditation Deck, Book One, Samādhi Pādah.
The starting point of their conversation will be Book One – the “Big Picture” overview of Yoga – The What, Why, and How of Yoga. Be prepared for a wide-ranging conversation, covering Melissa and Stephanie's personal experiences working with the sūtras, as well as insights into sūtras that they’ve found to be especially meaningful and into some of the ones that are more difficult to understand. Melissa and Steph share a passion for the sūtras and a deep commitment to working with them as part of their practice – and to encouraging others to find creative, personal ways to integrate them into daily life. Come to enjoy the community and participate in the conversation with these two passionate, engaged, and very down-to-earth, students of Yoga Philosophy.
The Meditation Deck features the beautifully reproduced (via off-set printing) cards of the 51 paintings for the 51 sūtras of Book One of the Yoga Sūtras, as seen in her book, The Yoga Sūtrasof Patañjali – A Visual Meditation. Book One, Samādhi Pādah, with updated translations and new commentary.
