In this conversation with Daniel Simpson (from his Ancient Futures substack) and I discuss my new book Yoga as Pilgrimage. We explore my own sūtras – pithy expressions of practical pointers – interspersed with stories from decades of experience as a teacher and practitioner. Along the way, we hear about:
- A minibus tour of Cotswolds tearooms with B.K.S. Iyengar
- The pitfalls of “preparing to meditate” without ever doing so
- Why Sāṃkhya provides a useful map to contemporary territory
- What distinguishes Life from life – and whether that’s divine
- How individual experience relates to something universal
