The Yoga of Jesus is a groundbreaking book that explores the profound connection between the teachings of Jesus Christ and the ancient practice of yoga. Author and yoga instructor, Suza Francina, meticulously delves into the historical, philosophical, and practical aspects of this enigmatic link, offering a fresh perspective on both disciplines.

The Historical Connection

Francina traces the historical connections between Jesus and yoga back to the first century CE. She examines the cultural and geographical influences of the Middle East and India, arguing that Jesus likely encountered the principles of yoga during his travels. Parallels are drawn between Jesus' teachings on compassion, forgiveness, and self-realization and the yogic concepts of ahimsa (non-violence),aparigraha (non-possessiveness),and samadhi (enlightenment).

Philosophical Alignments

The book explores the philosophical resonances between the Sermon on the Mount and the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. Francina highlights the shared emphasis on ethical conduct, self-discipline, and the pursuit of enlightenment. She argues that Jesus' teachings provide a practical framework for yoga practice, while yoga offers a deeper understanding of the spiritual teachings of Christianity.

Practical Applications

Beyond the historical and philosophical connections, The Yoga of Jesus offers practical applications that blend the techniques of yoga with the teachings of Jesus. Francina presents a series of accessible yoga practices tailored to enhance spiritual development. These practices include:

  • Enhanced physical flexibility and strength
