Description

The Yoga Sutras by Patanjali is an incredible resource for anyone interested in Yoga. This app is a swiss army knife study guide complete with a searchable sanskrit dictionary, and audio chanting of every verse.

Unlike the book form, you can now easily scan through its contents by topic, etymology, translation, and commentary. You can listen to each verse, and memorize them with ease.

This project took a year and a half researching and translating this ancient text and compiling it into an pocket sized tool. Reading from Edwin Bryant, B. K. S. Iyenger, Swami Satchidinanda, the author's aspiration was to write a sober commentary. A commentary that offers a logical approach to some of the more phenomenal things discussed such as levitation, immortality, and enlightenment.

Updates

The app seems great but it doesn’t fill the entire screen on an iPhone 11, an update for iPhone X and higher would be great. Also, I’d love to be able to scroll left and right between sutras, rather than having to use the buttons. Also, in dark mode the top and bottom bar are still white. It would be so great if these things got updated! Thanks

Developer Response ,

These are all fantastic ideas. I'm very grateful to hear them. I am releasing Version 3 this month. Will have all these corrections plus quite a few other features. Hare Aum!

great

i really love this app as i’m trying to learn the sutras and apply them to my life in an easily accessible and fun way. I love the daily sutra feature i read it in the morning like a daily newspaper. I was excited about the daily notification feature but it hasn’t been working I have not got a notification from the app and all of my settings are correct so that I wish could improve. Also a recommendation would be a section for notes that you can write some notes about the sutra on your own along with the bookmark feature which is great. And another recommendation would be to be able to play back the pronunciation of the sutra slower or have some more controls with that. but overall love it!

Wonderful app for exploring the yoga sutras of Patanjali!!! It’s absurd quality for such an esoteric subject. I love waking up to the Sutra of the Day. I love the breakdown of each sutra into individual vocabulary. I love the translations and the commentary. The commentary! Wow…beautiful writing. Beautiful imagery. This is something special that you will not find anywhere else. Enjoy it and enjoy your meditation practice.

Peace and love,
Swami sahaj prem
