Summary:
"Meet iconic Gods and Goddesses, from Ganeśa, the elephant-headed god of wisdom, to Śiva, Lord of Yogis, and Kali, goddess of mind, body, soul and death. Explore the rivalry between the sages Vasistha and Viśvāmitra, and their cosmic feud over a wish-fulfilling cow, plunge into the depths of one of the richest mythology, the churning of the cosmic ocean, and learn why the moon waxes and wanes each month through the story of Candra, the god of the moon. Enhance your spiritual practice by reading one story before or at the end of class, and incorporating the poses and their teaching into your life to trnsform the way you view yoga."-- Publisher.
