Over the past 20 years or so, practicing yoga has become almost mainstream, but plunging deeper and committing to the vocation of yoga teacher or yoga therapist remains, indeed, an act of profound and radical love. The world is waking to a need for new paradigms – new ways of knowing that are not only actionable – but also provide a springboard for the leaps of consciousness necessary to tackle the most pressing social, environmental, and geopolitical issues of the day. The yoga radicals who’ve shared their stories in these pages are the mavericks who embody the paradigms that will lead our cultures forward towards futures that are not only more sustainable, but also more compassionate, and more human. This book offers stunning vistas into these futures.
