In this class (Class 9, Sept. 26th, 2024), we discuss Yoga Sūtra 1.21–1.24, along with Edwin Bryant's commentary on these sūtras (pp. 81–99 of Edwin Bryant's book The Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali).

In today's class, I will refer to the following two academic articles:

Gerald James Larson, "Yoga's 'A-Theistic'-Theism: A New Way of Thinking About God" (link: https://vedanta.org/wp-content/upload...)

Georg Feuerstein, "The Concept of God (Isvara) in Classical Yoga" (link: https://vedanta.org/wp-content/upload...)

Class 9: Who or What is God? (1.21-1.24)
