It was highly acclain1ed as a \Vork of rare authenticity, based on thirteen Sanskrit con1n1entaries, synthesized and studied in the light of the oral tradition and direct personal experience in the n1astcr-disciple lineage of the yogis. The author withot�t
is of the opinion
such
personal
that

tnuch of the tern1inology of the \roga sutras would retnain obscure and any e xplanation
of
purely
scholastic
grounds would be incon1pletc. l,he value of the present vohnnc on the Sadhana-pada is further enhanced hy
adding
published
the study of even tnorc Sanskrit
con1n1cntaries as
\veil as unpublished 1nanuscripts. Seven lengthy appendices add to the value of the work as the tnaterial presented in these
appendices
can
be
further
researched and enhanced to fortn into independent theses. The author ntakcs cc�tain that the works of the previous cotnn1cntators be cxa1nincd in the light of how the Stltras arc tattght in the 1-liJI]alayan
caves atnong those who
practice the various ntcthods and arc initiated into thetn.
