'Tantric Traditions'
Dominic G and Harunaga I: ‘Tantric Traditions’. In: Jessica F (ed.): The Continuum Companion to Hindu Studies. London/New York: Continuum, 20⒒ pp. 122-137, 189-191 (notes), 361-400 (bibliography, joint for the whole volume). Please note that our final corrections to the proofs were not incorporated, due to technical problems on the side of the publishers. Among errors that as a result have got into print, most troublesome for readers is likely to be that the notes numbered in the text 85-92 are in the section with notes numbered 86-93; the note numbered in the text 93 should have been ‘See Goodall and Isaacson 2007:⒌’ (this is printed in the section with notes as the first sentence of note 94); and though the note numbered in the text 94 is correctly numbered 94 in the section with notes, the beginning of that note (‘See Goodall and Isaacson 2007:⒌ ⒑’) should be deleted.

Let the Sādhus Talk. Ascetic Understanding of Haṭha Yoga and Yogāsanas
This is the accepted version of a forthcoming article that will be published in Religions of South Asia Vol. 11 (2): https://journals.equinoxpub.com/index.php/ROSA Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/25763/ Let the Sādhus Talk. Ascetic understanding of Haṭha Yoga and yogāsanas Daniela Bevilacqua, SOAS University of London Very rarely have scholars focussed their attention on the yoga practice of contemporary ascetics, which is surprising considering that yoga probably originated and developed in 1 an ascetic context. Yoga, for ascetics who chose it as a religious path, has a specific spiritual meaning and purpose; it is a private discipline, and as such it should remain in the private sphere. Furthermore, being such an individual experience, sādhus claim it cannot be described by words, nor can be understood by someone who is not on the path. Yoga in effect, is a full-time commitment for the ascetics, while, as we will see, its physical aspect is just a temporary one. For this reason, the yoga practices that I am going to analyse in this paper are those that ascetics call “external”, physical yoga, i.e. āsanas and prāṇāyāmas. Haṭha yoga is the usual term to describe this physical yoga. As Mallinson notes: ‘The word hathạ (lit. force) denotes a system of physical techniques supplementary to yoga more broadly conceived’ (2011:770). The techniques peculiar to Haṭha Yoga are: ṣaṭ karma (purification), āsana (posture), prāṇāyāma (breath control), mudrā (physical techniques to “seal” the body), bandha (lock). They were slowly introduced in texts and then collected in th 2 the 15 -century Haṭhapradīpikā . -
