Sacred Sanskrit Words
For yoga, chant and meditation
What are the meanings and etymology of commonly used Sanskrit terms such as
Ashram, Bandhas, Karma, or Nadis. Or rarer words like Amrita (a brand of ayurvedic
products, but what else?), Kripalu (the term is used for a style of yoga in
the US, but where does it come from?) , or Mukti (as in, Jiva Mukti, but what
does it mean?). The answers to these questions are in this small book, which
covers 160 common Sanskrit terms used in yoga and meditation. The book also
has a section on Chants, which covers most of the classic yoga chants that
dedicated students will often have heard without knowing what they mean.
While a number of books on yoga include a glossary, this book goes much farther,
and will prove invaluable to serious students of yoga, Indian philosophy, or
meditation.
