of The
Anatomy of Hathayoga
by
H. David Coulter Body and Breath, Honesdale, 2001 The
book is an impressive volume devoted to anatomical cum physiological
knowledge needed to understand the physical basis and effect of a selected
range of hathayoga practices (asanas, pranayama, some bandhas and a few shatkarmas). It has a subtitle “A manual for
students, teachers and practitioners” that reflects the primary
target group, though one would feel that it could be also useful to
physiotherapists, alternative
health care practitioners and researchers alike. The
author strives to be exact and precise in his language even though
admittedly, some details of the asanas are difficult to relate in words
and as the author also stated, the various schools have a tendency to
differ from each other in details or even in principal matters. He starts
with the basics like a painter hat first lays the foundation layers and
only then starts drawing the outline of the picture, then painting and
finally varnishing it. Thus he tells about
basic anatomical and neurological items, explains their properties,
function and practical examples that connect them to something known. Then
come the yoga applications. There
have been efforts to tackle this subject by other authors, like Professor
B. Vigh – the eminent anatomist
of the Semmelweiss University in Budapest (in his books Yoga and
science, published in Budapest in
1972 and Yoga and the nervous system published in Budapest in
1980), but they were addressed to the yoga practitioners and lay community
and lacked the rigour and extent of David Coulter’s approach. The
book is arranged into 10 interlinked chapters. The first one deals with
movement and posture, the second with breathing, the third with
abdomino-pelvic exercises, the forth with standing postures, the fifth with
backbending postures, the sixth with forward bending postures, the seventh
with twisting postures, one complete chapter is devoted to headstand, one
to shoulderstand and the tenth is devoted to relaxation and meditation.
This completes the circle. The
insertion of valuable thoughts of different yoga protagonists, recall of
interesting stories that help the digestion of the essence of a given fact
make the book inspiring. The
book is truly excellent as a teaching and reference book for yoga teacher
courses and for in-training yoga teachers. The author blends his
experience both as an anatomist and a yoga practitioner and the result is
the best treatise to be found on this group of subjects. What
I also like very much is that he evidently passed on his enthusiasm for
yoga also to his family and his son is doing the modelling for 8 chapters
of the book. Still,
there are a few comments that I would like to make: 1.
The book is not
fully consistent in presenting the asanas. Some postures are given in
Iyengar style, some not, and the reason is not always clear for the choice. 2. It is a great pity that he did not choose to present more details on other than the chosen traditional shatkarmas – like the dhautis, neti etc. It would be nice to have his careful treatment of all the shatkarmas mentioned in Hathapradipika, Gheranda samhita or Satkarmasangrahah. 3..
He shows in Fig.2.21 a spirogram of bhastrika and kapalabhati.
Again the Bihar school of yoga as well as swami Devamurti´s approach (or
that of Thai Buddhists) is to ventilate more intensively, with greater
tidal volume than in case of kapalabhati. If one compares Coulter’s
spirograms with those given in Dr. D. Ebert’s book (Physiologische
Aspekte des Yoga, Thieme, Leipzig, 1986), - Fig. 17 - we can see a
significant difference. Thus to my knowledge it is unusual to have
bhastrika performed with less tidal volume than kapalabhati.
But it seems that it is
dependent on the school of yoga according to which one does the practice,
too. The spirograms on Fig.2.21 seem to be somewhat idealised. 4.
Of special interest are his comments on hypoventilation and
hyperventilation. More details on hypoventilation would be exceptionally
interesting as prolonged in- and exhalations as well as breath retentions
may decrease radically the minute ventillation. It would be interesting to
have his comments on the Buteyko method (cf. Dr. Ameisen P.J. 1997: Every
breath you take, Lansdowne, Victoria). In 1978 a Russian researcher
reported that a 30”
inhalation and 30” exhalation rhythm had led to a state of anabiosis (J.
Katkov in Proc. of the 1st Conference on the application of
yoga in physiotherapy, Kosice-Saca, 1978). T. Hirai (in his groundbreaking
book: Psychophysiology of Zen, Igaku Shoin Tokyo, 1974) reported about
radical lowering of the metabolic rate during slow, deep breathing
associated with Zen meditation. 8.
Not less interesting would be Coulter’s
comments on “hyperventilation” associated with holotropic
breathwork. Here the main point would be to model the reason why
alteration of breathing styles can bring up altered states of
consciousness. It would be fair to say that the association of holotropic
breathwork with “classical” hyperventilation is putative (cf. S. Grof´s
books on the subject, like the Stormy search for the Self, Beyond the
brain, and others) I
strongly recommend the use of the book in the Yoga teacher courses of the
European Union of Yoga and the translation of the book for the same purpose
within the Slovak Yoga association and Hungarian Yoga
Association. Košice,
