Table of ContentsReviews"“This passionate book combines inspired philosophical insight and critical commentary on a range of experiences that constitute transnational yoga. Based on years of participant observation in the United States and India, Miller’s intimate understanding of embodied practice provides a new, multivalent understanding of yoga in personal and social experience.” - --Joseph S. Alter, author of Yoga in Modern India: The Body between Science and Philosophy ""Miller’s transnational, multi-sited ethnographic research issues a clarion call for more attention to the deeply embodied ways of living and worlding in yoga communities. Including chapters on dietary practices, mantra (chants) and kīrtan (sacred music), and prāṇāyāma (breathing exercises), this wonderfully conceived book is a vital reminder of all that yoga is beyond āsana (yoga postures)."" - --Amanda Lucia, author of White Utopias: The Religious Exoticism of Transformational Festivals" "“This passionate book combines inspired philosophical insight and critical commentary on a range of experiences that constitute transnational yoga.
