SUMMARY:Dr. Jason Birch: Introduction to the History and Philosophy of Yoga
DESCRIPTION:Share this:April 13 to 23\, 2018\n  Weekdays: 14:30 to 16:30 \nJason Birch received a doctorate in Oriental Studies from the University of Oxford in 2013. His area of research is the medieval yoga traditions of India\, in particular\, those called Haṭha- and Rājayoga. His thesis\, which was supervised by Professor Alexis Sanderson\, focused on the earliest extant Rājayoga text called the Amanaska. A critical edition and annotated translation of this Sanskrit text is accompanied by a monographic introduction\, which examines the influence of earlier Śaiva tantric traditions on the Amanaska as well as the significance of the Amanaska in later yoga traditions. \nWHAT? \nThis lecture series will pose and discuss some basic questions on yoga\, such as ‘what is yoga?’\, ‘how can we understand its history?’\, ‘do all yoga systems aim for the same thing?’\, etc. \nThe course will summarise the central ideas of two main types of premodern yoga\, namely\, Pātañjalayoga and Haṭha/Rājayoga\, and look more closely at some teachings that may be helpful for yoga practitioners. \nThe course will end with a short overview of the history of modern yoga. Small selections from historical sources will be presented in translation. \nParticipants will be encouraged to think critically about the material presented\, and will gain an understanding of the differences and similarities between premodern yoga traditions as well as the ongoing transformation of yoga teachings throughout the centuries. \nTOPICS COVERED \nApril 13: Definitions of Yoga\nApril 16: Premodern sources on Yoga\nApril 17: Pātañjala Yoga\nApril 18: Haṭha Yoga – early period\nApril 19: Haṭha Yoga – late period\nApril 20: Rāja Yoga\nApril 23: Overview of Modern Yoga \nPRICING: \nEach Session: \nMembers: ¥4000\nNon-members: ¥4500\nYJAT: ¥3800 \nPackage: \nMembers: ¥23000\nNon-members: ¥25000\nYJAT: ¥20000 \nNotes: \nTo get the Membership Pricing\, first purchase a Membership from the Pricing page.
