Hi, all

I was reading on the web, a few weeks ago, a section of Patanjali I'd never noticed before,
which essentially says that asana is a slow track for less karmically prepared seekers to be
put in touch with their energetic body.

Can anyone help me find this? Thanks!

I believe that this was a misquote. Patanjalis concept of asana was the definition of the seat or posture for meditation, not asana as we know it now as a series of body postures. The quote must have been from another author and mistakenly attributed to patanjali
