Yog Sutr of Patanjali

Gurmukhi Reading with English Translation

Pronounciation Guide
Beginner
ਃ - enunciate a pause (usually 'ah')
ਯ੍ਯ - extend the 'ye' sound to twice as long. This is a continuous 'double y'. E.g. ਵਿਪਰ੍ਯ੍ਯ - should be pronounced similar to Wiparwaya, rather than as Wiparya
ਘ ਭ ਧ ਢ ਝ - are all aspirated e.g. ਘ is "gh" rather than stressed "gg"
ਙ - read as "gy", this is for beginners

Advanced Reader
ਙ - is an "ngy" sound, takes a lot of practice to get right (sometimes written as "ng" or "nj". In the video below he writes "dny")
Pronunciation Video

ष - sometimes I write this simply as ਸ਼, sometimes as ਖਸ਼. The actual pronunciation is 'sh' that is uttered from the back of the mouth. Normally we say 'sh' from the front of the mouth but try saying it from the back, it will sound much softer. That is ष , it sounds like it is halfway between ਖ and ਸ਼. Pronunciation Video

We don't have a letter for this sound in Punjabi. ਖ ਖ਼ ਸ਼ are all taken. I would prefer if we used ਛ਼ to represent ਸ਼ (a soft ਛ, these sounds which are often the same in some Punjabi dialects) and ਸ਼ to represent ष (softer ਛ, and even softer than ਛ਼, it's a soft version of ਸ).

The continuum starts from the front of the mouth and moves backwards - ਸ > ਛ > ਛ਼ > ਖ > ਸ਼ > ਖ਼ - snake > chair > share > care > ਮੋਸ਼ > ਖ਼ਰਗੋਸ਼

Oh I remember watching that a long time ago. Will have to rewatch to refresh my memory.

Maybe I'll translate the Yog Sutra first and then compare my understanding to his.

wow this requires intense concentration Bhagat Singh, it will be good for those who cannot read devnagri script or sanskrit. keep it up !

What is the relation between this granth and Sikh history? Was it studied by the early Sikhs etc? Is it part of the current day study lists of various orders?

Bro, keep doing ardaas at the feet of Satguru jee. God willing, you will receive all the strength needed, to do this good task.

Thanks! Definitely, it will be good for Gurmukhi readers and I also hope to give my own mehek to this translation.
(hopefully it is a beautiful mehek and not BO lol)

Bro, keep doing ardaas at the feet of Satguru jee. God willing, you will receive all the strength needed, to do this good task.

Will do Paapiman! I know the state of Yog and I want to keep myself in that state while I work on this document on Yog. So I am always meditating while I work on this. I have self-recorded simran playing in the back as well to keep me on track. Will do ardas as well.

What is the relation between this granth and Sikh history?

If you are familiar with common words in Guru Granth Sahib, you'll notice they also appear in this document, which was written by Patanjali about 2000 years ago. This is because these concepts are the same and they have carried over millenia. They were practiced during the ten guru's times and are still practiced today.

Was it studied by the early Sikhs etc? Is it part of the current day study lists of various orders?

I think it was very well studied back then too (Kahn Singh ji mentions in his Mahan Kosh). So if it's not part of today's study list, then it should be up there on the list.

Thanks for the support guys! It becomes my strength.
