Title: Comic relief
Review: This book is best used as a contrast with Iyengar's. To see Vishnu's hands and feet uncoordinatedly splayed in all directions is simultaneously comical and sad. Like many people from India, he is very supple. Unfortunately, he also seems to have very little awareness inside his body. And body positions without mental involvement are the antithesis of yoga. Besides Iyengar's, check out Vanda Scaravelli's book. She once said to me, "Yoga is the religion of the spine." Vishnu's spine is supple; but again, without awareness. When I used to teach yoga, I would bring this book to class as an example of how NOT to do the asanas.
