Modern yoga, that is, the form practiced daily by tens of miIIions of people around the worId, goes back directIy to the god Shiva according to Indian tradition. At the same time, however, modern yoga originated in the earIy 20th century - a creation of Indian savant T. Krishnamacharya (1888-1989). That story is far less known.

His journey Ieads him from the legendary students and reIatives of Krishnamacharya's to the source of modern yoga, at the paIace of the Maharaja of Mysore. From Pattabhi Jois Jan Iearns the Sun salutation, from lyengar the King of Asanas, the headstand, and finaIIy Sribhashyam reveals to him his father's secret Life Saving Yoga Session. |
