About this listen

Swami Satchidananda's popular translation and commentary of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali now in unabridged audiobook form, with additional features and bonus tracks included in this 9-1/2 hour program.

  • Each sutra chanted in Sanskrit by Dr. M. A. Jayashree, renowned for her flawless pronunciation and classical articulation of the Sanskrit, which is replete with meaning and the yogic vibration
  • English translation of each sutra read by Indunil Peiris
  • Swami Satchidananda's illuminating commentary read by Rev. Sam Rudra Swartz
  • Bonus tracks: sutra-by-sutra chanting and translation only

The Yoga Sutras are a complete manual for the study and practice of Yoga. Through his translation and commentary on the classic text, Sri Swami Satchidananda shares his practical, down-to-earth advice on mastering the mind and achieving physical, mental, and emotional harmony in life through applying the ancient, yet timeless techniques of Raja Yoga.

Part one of the audiobook presents each sutra, its translation, and any commentary.

Part two presents the bonus tracks: each sutra with its translation, but without commentary, for those who would like to memorize and develop their skills in reciting the sutras.

Lee Ann, provided a informative meditation lesson today. It was a emotional release for a long day of travel. The Ireland retreat location is beautiful quiet and serene.

It helps tremendously to hear Sanskrit chants with proper inflection and pronunciation. It is the sound vibration of Patanjali’s teaching. I wish the reader of the text portion, which is most of the book, matched the tone of Swami Satchidanana. He sounded like he could be reading a text book without understanding it; some words were mispronounced. He sounds foreign to the subject matter. Respectfully to the narrator nonetheless.
I am very happy with the audio version notwithstanding.

Hearing the sutras chanted accurately

This is my first time reading the sutras and I’ve reread this 3 times already! I love this version. So glad I found it!

Easy to follow and understand!

One of those books that gives one access to a deep understanding of a set of teachings which, to the uninitiated, might otherwise remain impenetrable

Excellent combo of Sutras and expert commentary
