Patanjali Yog Sutra

Understanding the Human System

OCS Foundation has created www.patanjaliyogasutra.in as a free and open digital knowledge platform dedicated to the study of the Patanjali Yog Sutra.

The platform presents the Yog Sutra as a framework for exploring the human body and mind system, with detailed explanations by Pujya Swami Videh Dev Ji.

It is designed for seekers, students, young people, teachers and researchers who wish to study questions connected with mind, attention, emotion, awareness and human potential.

An Evolving Repository for Seekers and Students

The Patanjali Yog Sutra website is envisioned as a Yoga Wiki, an evolving open repository of knowledge.

Users can search, study and revisit material according to their areas of interest.

The platform is intended to make serious study of the Sutras more accessible without placing a financial barrier between the learner and the knowledge.

Explore the Knowledge Platform

Ancient Knowledge Through a Modern Medium

The Human Consciousness and Yogic Science Initiative gives young people an opportunity to engage with India’s ancient knowledge through a contemporary digital format.

The resources can support inquiry into subjects such as:

Attention

Emotion

Mental clarity

Awareness

Creativity

Resilience

Self understanding

The intention is to encourage deeper inquiry rather than present the Sutras simply as historical information.
