Patanjali Yoga Sutras or Aphorisms written about 2600 years ago, condense the yogic tradition that existed in India 3600 years before that time. This period was also the golden period of Ayurveda. Both these disciplines are concerned primarily with the well being of the body, though their aims are different. The aim of yoga is to achieve eternity by getting over the bondage with the body and being one with the Universal Soul or Purusha. One needs a strong and healthy body to rise over the physicality. Ayurveda is the Science of health and healing from ancient India and is primarily concerned with the optimum quality of life, longevity and freedom from ailments. The author has shown in her previous books how Charaka has emphasized the values of yoga for maintaining good health. Charaka has stressed the importance of sattva (inner peace and stillness) to balance rajas (activity) and tamas (inertia) for maintaining health and equilibrium. Present book integrates the disciplines of yoga and Ayurveda and demonstrates that both have the same fundamental principles of Samkhya school of thought. Dr. Verma has compared the concept of body in both these disciplines and given special programmes to integrate this timeless wisdom in everyday life of modern people. The book is extremely valuable for understanding both the classical yoga as well as essence of Ayurveda. It is a precious guide to manage stress, enhance concentration and memory, as well as body's energy. This book is equally important for scholars who are interested in the concept of body and human creative dimension. This is the third edition of the book.

Along with a doctorate degree in reproduction biology in India, Dr. Verma studied Neurobiology in Paris University and obtained a second doctorate. She pursued advanced research at the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda (USA) and the Max-Planck Institute in Freiburg, Germany. At the peak of her career in medical research in a pharmaceutical company in Germany, she realised that the modern approach to health care is basically fragmented and non-holistic. Besides, we are directing all our efforts and resources to cure disease rather than maintaining health. In response, Dr. Verma founded The New Way Health Organisation (NOW) in 1986 to spread the message of holistic living, preventive methods for health care and to promote the use of mild medicine and various self-help therapeutic measures. Dr. Verma grew up with a strong familial tradition of Ayurveda with a grandmother who had enormous Ayurvedic wisdom and was a gifted healer. She has studied Ayurveda in the traditional Guru-shishya style with Acharya Priya Vrat Sharma of the Benares Hindu University for 23 years. Dr. Verma is an ardent researcher and is working hard to compile the living tradition of Ayurveda and spread it in the world through her books and other activities. She has published twenty three books on yoga, Ayurveda, Women and Companionship. The books are published in various languages of the world. Besides, she has published numerous scientific articles. Several other books are in preparation. She lectures extensively, teaches in Europe for several months a year, trains students at her two centres in India and gives radio and television programmes. A film on Ayurveda with her was made by German television in 1995 and was shown in 100 countries, in 130 languages. It was the first film on Ayurveda. Dr. Verma has founded Charaka School of Ayurveda to train interested people with genuine Ayurvedic education so that they can further impart the knowledge of Ayurvedic way of life and save people from becoming a victim of charlatanry in Ayurveda. She is doing several research projects on medicinal plants and their combination in the form of remedies. She is the founder and chairperson of The Ayurveda Health Organisation, which is a charitable trust for distributing and promoting Ayurvedic remedies and yoga therapy in rural areas of India. She does lectures and workshops for school children in remote areas of the Himalayas to promote wisdom of traditional science and medicine.
