Patanjali

Patanjali is the ancient Indian sage traditionally credited with compiling the Yoga Sutras, one of the foundational texts of yoga philosophy. While historical details about Patanjali's life remain uncertain — scholars debate whether he was a single individual or a collective tradition — the text attributed to him has profoundly influenced spiritual practice for over two millennia. The Yoga Sutras lay out a systematic path to self-realisation through ethical living, meditation and mental discipline. Available in numerous translations as books and audiobooks, the Yoga Sutras continue to guide practitioners around the world, offering timeless wisdom on the nature of the mind and the pursuit of inner peace.
