In this insightful podcast episode, the host explores the profound philosophy of the Yoga Sutras, with particular focus on Patanjali's Eight Limbs of Yoga and the key concept of Ahimsa - non-violence. This enlightening journey offers a fresh look at yoga, not simply as physical exercise, but more importantly as a practice that brings tranquility to the mind.
Apart from explicating the deeper teachings of Yoga, the host shares some exciting updates including new breathwork classes, the rebranding of the Breath Source app, and a host of new content additions. Listeners also get to learn about the "Breath as Medicine" program along with information about upcoming events such as the Zion Yoga Fest and the Yin on Fire Festival.
As the highlights of this episode, the host provides a comprehensive discussion on Ahimsa, delving into the complexities of non-violence in thought, word, and deed. The host explores ethical dilemmas, interpreting various perspectives through the lens of Yoga Sutras and Bhagavad Gita. The concept of Ahimsa is expanded beyond physical act to also include our thoughts and intentions, challenging us to avoid harmful thoughts.
By tapping into the moral teachings of Mahatma Gandhi and the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, a broader understanding of non-violence is provided. The listeners are challenged to maintain a balance in life – to practice compassion, self-awareness, and to rise above the narrative of victimhood.
In conclusion, this episode sets the stage for a series of discussions on the other Yamas and Niyamas in the Yoga Sutras. The ultimate aim is to inspire listeners to embody non-violence in their everyday lives, thereby contributing towards a global culture of peace.
