Hatha Yoga Pradipika RecitationJoin Now to Follow
Listen to Recitations from the Hatha Yoga Pradipika. The Hatha Yoga Pradipika is the main traditional work on Hatha Yoga. The Hatha Yoga Pradipika was composed by Yoga Swatmarama several centuries ago. The Hatha Yoga Pradipika is written in Sanskrit and composed in classical Shloka metre. That's why the recitation of the Hatha Yoga Pradipika is said to be a powerful spiritual practice. Listening to the Hatha Yoga Pradipika is also considered very beneficial. The recitation is done by Sukadev Bretz, founder-director of Yoga Vidya, a network of Yoga Teachers, Yoga Centers and Yoga Ashrams in Germany and Central Europe.

It is difficult to find someone from the West that both understands and can elegantly express the theory behind an Eastern mystical tradition. It is even more difficult to find a modern mystic. In Swami Tripurari we have both: a traditional mystic who can articulate the teachings of an ancient spiritual tradition. A compelling speaker, to hear him and be in his presence is itself a spiritual experience. Swami Tripurari met his initiating guru, Srila A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, in the spring of 1972. He relates that he felt as though he had met a long-lost friend, as Srila Prabhupada blessed him with his all-knowing glance. Over the years of service that followed, Srila Prabhupada showered him with affection and repeatedly expressed his appreciation for his selfless service and ability to inspire others. In 1974 Srila Prabhupada instructed him in a widely circulated letter, “So you organize freely. You are the incarnation of book distribution. Take the leadership and do the needful.” Accordingly, Swami Tripurari has set an example of one who is independently thoughtful and capable of making an insightful literary contribution to the world. In 1975 Swami Tripurari was initiated by Srila Prabhupada into the renounced order of sannyasa.
