"This book is for those who, in practising Hatha Yoga, want to find a deeper meaning in the asanas. The meaning is there, psychologically and spiritually, and you can now begin to look at the asanas as symbols and find in them an unsuspected significance." - Swami RadhaSwami Sivananda Radha first introduced the transformational Hidden Language method in 1986. Her classic book, Hatha Yoga: The Hidden Language is essential for the serious student of yoga.
Hatha Yoga: The Hidden Language takes the study and practice of Hatha Yoga far beyond a series of physical exercises. Swami Sivananda Radha brilliantly synthesizes the wisdom of the yogic teachings with an understanding of psychological and spiritual facets of contemporary life. Working with metaphor and symbolism, imagery and visualization, Swami Sivananda Radha guides students toward a richer understanding not only of Hatha Yoga, but also of their purpose in life.
With this approach, one can discover the mystical messages of the asanas so that the body is truly understood as a spiritual tool."Swami Radha's sincere approach to Hatha Yoga speaks of her devotion to the subject. She has relit the lamp of Hatha Yoga to flame so that its light enlightens one and all." - Geeta Iyengar"Swami Radha's book has been on my bookshelf since it was first published. The language of yoga, as spoken by Swami Radha, speaks to my heart." - Amy Weintraub author and yoga teacher."Hatha Yoga the hidden language shares with readers the deep symbology of the practice, inspiring us to take our asana practice, off the mat, and into our lives by showing us the connection of practice and Nature.
Read it and open your mind and heart to a more comprehensive view of asana." - Judith Hanson Lasater, Ph. D., PT, author of Thirty Essential Yoga Poses.
