 Yoga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sri Aurobindo, referred to as Aurobindo Ghosh by those who consider him as merely a philosopher rather than an Avatar, was not simply an intellectual genius born in West Bengal and educated in the best university in England.
Besides his influence and scholarly writing on Yoga, he also founded Sri Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry, that continues to propagate the practice of Integral Yoga, which is a Tantric synthesis of the four main Yogas (Karma, Jnana, Bhakti and Raja).
Gopi Krishna was a Kashmiri office worker and spiritual seeker who was born in 1903, and wrote autobiographical accounts of his spiritual experiences with Yoga.

 With My Guru
Krishnamacharya fell into a trance on the way to the temple and found himself in the presence of three sages, one of whom recited the entire Yoga Rahasya for him.
Krishnamacharya had his initial education under his father who taught him the Vedas and the other religious texts in the traditional gurukula manner.
Sri Krishnamacharya used to say that His senior students should spread Sastriyayoga (traditional Yoga), as many unsavory practices were creeping in.

 History of Ashtanga Yoga - Ashtanga
Krishnamacharya and Jois translated and reconstructed the ashtanga yoga series (originally there were six sequences of postures) and Pattabhi Jois, with the encouragement of Krishnamacharya, took the instructions as the basis of his practice and teaching.
The Yoga Korunta was a collection of verses on hatha yoga was discovered in the 1930's by yoga master and Sanskrit scholar Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya and his disciple K. Pattabhi Jois while researching Sanskrit texts at a Calcutta university library.
Ashtanga yoga system was compiled from a manuscript written on a bundle of palm leaves, the Yoga Korunta.

 Krishnamacharya Yoga Festival
The festival was to honor the 115th anniversary of the birth of Sri Krishnamacharya, who is revered as the grandfather of modern yoga.
Born in 1888,Tirumalai Krishnamacharya is regarded as the grandfather of modern yoga.
Being a master of several disciplines, Krishnamacharya was offered high scholastic positions in great institutes of learning and in the courts of kings, but he chose to be a teacher of yoga in order to honor the promise he made to his guru.

 The Yoga Shop - Krishnamacarya
According to biographical notes Krishnamacharya made near the end of his life, his father initiated him into yoga at age five, when he began to teach him Patanjali's sutras and told him that their family had descended from a revered ninth-century yogi, Nathamuni.
Krishnamacharya didn't welcome his son's newfound interest in yoga.
Krishnamacharya explained that the woman had been studying yoga with him.

 Indra Devi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Indra Devi ( 1899 - 2002) was an early disciple of Sri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, who herself became a renowned yoga teacher.
Upon moving to India she disguised her Baltic roots by adopting a stage name that would sound Hindi and spiritual (using "dev", the Hindi root for "god").

 This approach: Background
Shri Tirumalai Krishnamacharya was one of India's most respected authorities on the Vedic tradition and Yoga Teachings and practice.
Sri Krishnamacharya renowned the world over as an exponent of Yoga, was also a visionary who had a sense of the atrophy that Vedic study would face in modern times.
The Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram was founded in 1976 in Madras with the aim of making available the heritage of Yoga and in later years Vedic Chanting as taught by Shri Krishnamacharya.

 Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram
Krishnamacharya's knowledge of Yoga was so extensive that he taught each individual differently.
The "Yoga Rahasya" which is a valuable treatise on Yoga, was believed to be lost.
He then trekked to Manasarovar in the Himalayas where he learnt Yoga, Yoga practice,Yoga therapy and the Yoga Sutras from Shri Ramamohana Brahmachari.
http://www.kym.org/tkrish.html

  
 Modern Master
Few yogis remained, but his father was one of them and Krishnamacharya started studying Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras in 1893 at age five.
These two experienced the aging guru at the height of his wisdom and compassion when he dismissed large group instruction and advocated that yoga should be adapted to the age and lifestyle of each student.
It’s fair to say that Krishnamacharya was genetically or karmically predisposed to yoga.

 Health, Healing and Beyond : Yoga and the Living Tradition of Krishnamacharya - Books Store
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali : Commentary on the Raja Yoga Sutras by Sri Swami Satchidananda
Whilst I am in awe of Sri Krishnamacharya and have been for many years, this book, written by his son, is a very difficult and dry read.
Unlike "Autobiography of a Yogi," this work is not about magic but about the living tradition of yoga, and of a yogi skilled in all six Ways of Viewing, a wanderer, who journeyed for years on end learning the Vedic teachings, finally settling in south India to live yoga and raise a family.

 Power Yoga
The head of the Maharaja of Mysores yoga institute at the royal palace, Krishnamacharya was both a renowned scholar of Sanskrit and yoga philosophy, and a master yogi who had spent many years studying with a hatha yoga adept in Benares.
Working from the manuscript, Jois and Krishnamacharya laboriously reconstructed the six series that are now known as Ashtanga yoga.
Although Krishnamacharya simply incorporated this newfound information into his already vast knowledge of yoga technique, he encouraged Pattabhi Jois to devote himself exclusively to the practice and propagation of the newly uncovered sequences.
