Philosophical & Practical Books on Yoga

Light on Yoga, B.K.S. Iyengar.   THE book on Iyengar yoga.  If you really want to see the postures of yoga as Iyengar practiced them, then look here.
The Tree of Yoga, B.K.S. Iyengar, The very first book I read about yoga and it is still inspiring.  Iyengar writes about the jewels of this practice on many levels.  It tells us why it is important to root down and branch out in our lives.
The Woman’s Book of Yoga and Health, Linda Sparrow with sequences by Patricia Walden..  Simply put, it addresses women’s needs as they cycle through life during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. 
Yoga, Discipline of Freedom, The Yoga Sutra Atributed to Patanjali,  Translated by Barbara Stoler Miller.  I have really fallen in love with this book.  The philosophical and psychological teachings from Patanjali are beautifully translated by Miller in a lucid, poetic and comprehensive manner.

Poetry

Ariel, Sylvia Plath, A wonderful and poignant set of poems Plath wrote towards the end of her life.
Book of Longing, Leonard Cohen, One of my all time favorite books on the planet.  Leonard Cohen spent 5 years in a Zen monastery and worked on this book.  It is full of his old songs, new poems, and drawings (lots of self portraits) all made with the wisdom, love and humor that is uniquely his.
Tao Te Ching, Lao Tsu, Translated by Gia-Fu-Feng and Jane English This book has been translated more frequently than any work except the Bible.  This particular translation is one of the best.  Jacob Needleson writes, “ The Tao Te Ching is a work of metaphysical psychology taking us far beyond the social or biological factors. It helps us see how the fundamental forces of the cosmos itself are mirrored in our own individual, inner structure.

Miscellaneous Books & Other Fun Stuff

The Dancing Wu Li Masters, An Overview of the New Physics, Gary Zukav.  This book reveals the “wowness” of Quantum physics and it’s connection to Eastern thought.  This is where I learned that if you observe something, then you actually change the thing that you observe.  Really cool stuff!!
The Feminine Face of God, Sherry Ruth Anderson & Patricia Hopkins.  Reveals the life of women as they describe their desire to forge a spiritual path with great earnestness, with deep mystical experiences, and with a large capacity to hold community.  It’s a very encouraging book for any woman seeking solace when facing the power of patriarchal institutions.
Myth and the Body, Stanley Keleman with Joseph Campbell. This book reveals how the shapes of our bodies mold our character, our inclinations, and even our mindset in the world.  His writings strongly suggest that we look at our bodies shaping, the myths we hold and how we might learn to live in a more integrated manner.
Man’s Search for Meaning, Victor E. Frankl, I was deeply moved by Frankl's writing as he describes his witnessing the great human capacity to love fellow beings inside of Aushwitz.

One of my favorite recordings comes from Bikkhu Bodhi.  He is a pre-eminent scholar and monk in the Theravada tradition of Buddhism.  He gives a talk about the Buddhist teachings on death, not a favorite subject for most of us Americans. The talk runs for about 2 hours, so make sure you have time.

Catching fish is money in the bank for David Lynch.  This video is just a snippet of his ideas on meditation and the possibilities that arise when we sit with ourselves and receive the world.  It’s funny, wise, and delightful. Behold David Lynch's hands!
