Und obwohl diese Bilder in gewisser Weise nicht ganz unwahr sind, sind sie als Beschreibung und von der eigentlichen Bedeutung des Yogas weit entfernt.

Nel 1904, William Waker Atkinson, pubblica col suo nome di Yogi questo manuale completo di Hatha Yoga, cioè della branca dello Yoga che si occupa del benessere fisico.
