Green Yoga by Georg Feuerstein and Brenda Feuerstein

GREEN YOGA addresses the vital interrelationship between self-transformation and the preservation of our natural environment. The worldwide environmental crisis demands that we now do our utmost to help restore Earth’s balance, so that future generations can have a habitable planet to enjoy and to support both their mundane and spiritual aspirations. At its best, Yoga is a holistic tradition that fully acknowledges the interdependence of everything. Its contemporary teachers and practitioners are called to translate the yogic wisdom teachings into a viable “green” lifestyle, which treats both the inner and outer environment with reverence. This book reviews the shocking evidence of the environmental crisis, unsustainable lifestyle choices, and overwhelming human folly, and spells out in straightforward language what this means in practical terms. This is a clarion call for those who actually want to live by the principles of Yoga "off the mat."
