About SutraWellness
Who we are
Sutra - ahhh... this often misinterpreted (wink wink) word. In reality, a sutra is a literary rule or aphorism, or a collection of them. Sanskrit literature includes many collections of sutras. ... In Sanskrit, sutra means "thread," and traditional ancient literary sutras attempted to weave knowledge, threadlike, around and into their few simple words or syllables. So in a nutshell, Sutra, can simply be translated to “teachings of”.
