B.K.S. Iyengar’s Light on Yoga Asanas Index
The book “Light on Yoga” contains 602 photos, it’s a treasure trove because Guruji’s photos are inspirational.
However, because the book covers so many asanas it’s difficult to find a photo of a specific asana. In order to help with quickly finding a photo I prepared a short index according to the asanas families.
The index refers to the photo numbers and not the page numbers and therefore suitable to any edition of the book (in any language).
I recommend printing the index and pasting it onto the inner book cover. I find it very helpful with finding the necessary photo.
Good luck!
