Carlos Pomeda

Patanjali's Classical Yoga: Blueprint for Transformation
By looking directly at Patanjali’s words, Carlos shows how the author’s intent has often been misunderstood. While the text outlines the eight-limbed path of ashtanga yoga, to Patanjali, the most important limb was the final one, Samadhi, timeless absorption in the Absolute.

Carlos Pomeda M.A Sanskrit and Religious Studies
Carlos received formal, traditional training in yoga during almost 18 years as a monk. During this time he learnt the various systems of Indian Philosophy and immersed himself in the practice of yoga. He combines this traditional training with an academic background, having earned two Masters' degrees: one in Sanskrit from UC Berkeley and another one, in Religious Studies, from UC Santa Barbara
