Bof bof bof. 
Si l’histoire et la philosophie du yoga y sont bien résumées, la petite musique de fond sur l’amour universel et la capacité spontanée de guérison du corps, limite dérive sectaire, m’ont profondément gênée. Il existe bien d’autres livres sur le yoga mieux documentés et plus justes (je pense notamment à Mme Ysé Tardan-Masquelier).
