Affectionately known as Lady Ruth at the Jivamukti Yoga School in New York City where she teaches, Ruth Lauer-Manenti has presented "dharma "talks on daily life from a yogic perspective for many years (collected in "An Offering of Leaves" and "Sweeping the Dust," both published by Lantern Books). "Fell in Her Hands" is an altogether more ambitious work: a commentary and reflection on the venerable yogic text, the "Yoga Sutra "of Patanjali written in the form of a series of interlaced stories that grow out of the sutras, with the various characters evolving through the obstacles and challenges that are presented in the "Yoga Sutra." Deeply personal, humane, expressive, and even humorous, "Fell in Her Hands" is a fresh and insightful examination of the yoga the yoke that ties us to our friends and family and acquaintances, to the past and the future, and to all creation. The result is a unique insight into the heart of yoga by a much-loved and compassionate practitioner."
