- Readers exploring yoga beyond exercise
- Worth noticing
- The index lists six articles under “What yoga is” and five under “Beyond the mat,” alongside dedicated translation and Himalayan-roots sections.
Field notes
The homepage pairs Sanskrit terms with transliterations and short glosses, then connects them to named source texts including the Bhagavad Gita, Yoga Sutras, and Drg-Drsya Viveka. Its article index separates foundational explanations from practice topics such as breath, meditation, mantra, and ethics; a separate section addresses changes as yoga travelled west. The site describes itself as written from Nepal.
