Integral Yoga Hatha Explained by Its Founder

Featured Practice, Hatha Yoga Philosophy

In the mid-1980s, Swami Satchidananda was interviewed by Meenakshi Angel Honig, one of his students, in Santa Barbara, California.
Meenakshi asks him a series of questions about Integral Yoga and the practices of Integral Yoga, including Hatha, pranayama, and meditation. This interview was to serve as an introduction to an Integral Yoga Hatha six-week course that Meenakshi was teaching.
It’s a wonderful opportunity to hear the rationale behind the methods and inspiration that comprise the Integral Yoga system, from the founder of this system.
