1. Hatha Yoga Pradipika
A compact medieval manual of Hatha practice that outlines cleansing techniques, key postures, breath-control methods, locks and gestures, and subtle-body practices aimed at purifying the body and nervous system so the practitioner can awaken inner energy and attain higher states of meditation; it mixes practical instruction and cautions about discipline, diet, and guidance from a teacher with philosophical notes on the ultimate goal of spiritual liberation.
