Sanskrit is the language of all significant source texts of yoga. This dictionary contains 1500 selected terms from the specialized vocabulary, including 180 asanas with word-for-word translations, as well as a number of relevant German keywords. The Sanskrit terms are printed in both simplified transliteration and with diacritical marks. Additionally, 30 well-known yoginis and yogis are introduced, and the main styles of practice from the 20th and 21st centuries are described, particularly developments and variations of Hatha yoga. The appendix includes a complete asana index and a German-Sanskrit asana dictionary.
