I am getting ready to learn some Sanskrit and am looking for a textbook. The goal is to be able to read yoga-related works.
If anyone has suggestions I'd be very interested and grateful. |

Maheswari, since you're the one who knows the most Sanskrit among us, it's only fair that you'd be our teacher, or at least a consultant.
It'll be fun!  |
