Ep. 5.05: Patañjali’s Yoga Sutras, Becoming Invisible & Reading Omens (Ch. 3)

<p>Yoga Sūtras 3.21 - 3.22: What does becoming invisible and reading omens have to do with yoga? Nothing! It is a metaphor. Becoming invisible means being able to be still. Patañjali is cleverly leading us towards a superior foundation; one from which we can more clearly discern what we are doing with our time and energy - to see: Our we our own best friend or our own enemy. In order to assess this, we must first bring ourselves under control. So just like in the Vedic instructions, so too in the yogic instructions: Listen carefully (3.17), look carefully (3.18), control your body with stability &amp; ease (3.21), then we can see how to guide ourselves in this life.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Live Class</strong> meets every Wednesday from 10:45 - 12:00 pm (California Time)</p> <p>To learn more about our offerings or to make a donation in support of our work, please visit our website: <a href="https://www.samjiva.com/donations"><strong>https://www.samjiva.com/donations</strong></a></p> <p>David Miliotis - Samjīva Nilayam: Ashtānga Yoga Orange County</p> <p><a href="https://samjiva.com/"><strong>samjiva.com</strong></a> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ashtangayoga"><strong>youtube.com/ashtangayoga</strong></a> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<strong>@samjivanilayam</strong></p>

Ep. 5.04: Patañjali’s Yoga Sutras, The Window to Your Soul (Ch. 3)

<p>Yoga Sūtras 3.18 - 3.20: In Ashtānga Yoga we are taught to fix our attention in three places: Breathing, Posture &amp; Dṛṣṭi (eyes). Why are the eyes so important? Patañjali actually teaches three essential aspects of the eyes that will help us to overcome our habits and lack of self-awareness (yea, really - have you noticed how little we actually know about ourselves or are you still under the spell of thinking everything is happening consciously - because it certainly is not). Sūtra 18 is the first teaching on the eye. We are supposed to observe our eyes as a self-reflective meditation (svādhyāya) to shed light on where we are coming from. The other two essential aspects about the eyes are found in Sūtras 3.26 &amp; 3.28. Together, these three teaching about the eyes bring far greater depth of purpose to our Ashtānga practice of Dṛṣṭi.</p> <p><strong>Live Class</strong> meets every Wednesday from 10:45 - 12:00 pm (California Time)</p> <p>To learn more about our offerings or to make a donation in support of our work, please visit our website: <a href="https://www.samjiva.com/donations"><strong>https://www.samjiva.com/donations</strong></a></p> <p>David Miliotis - Samjīva Nilayam: Ashtānga Yoga Orange County</p> <p><a href="https://samjiva.com/"><strong>samjiva.com</strong></a> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ashtangayoga"><strong>youtube.com/ashtangayoga</strong></a> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<strong>@samjivanilayam</strong></p>

Ep. 5.03: Patañjali’s Yoga Sutras, Listening is the Foundation (Ch. 3)

<p>Yoga Sūtras 3.17 - 3.22 (but mostly 3.17): Vital to the process of yoga is what Patañjali refers to as cleaning our memory (smṛti). This essentially means becoming conscious of our karma and managing it with freedom rather than from the bondage of our habits &amp; the concepts we hold about the way the world is and should be. We do this by self-reflecting (svādhyāya). The process when done with deep sincerity is quite liberating. So much so that Patañjali gives us a list of self-reflective meditations to quicken our progress along the path to greater self-awareness, skill &amp; joy. First and foremost, we must learn to become exceptionally good listeners.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Live Class</strong> meets every Wednesday from 10:45 - 12:00 pm (California Time)</p> <p>To learn more about our offerings or to make a donation in support of our work, please visit our website: <a href="https://www.samjiva.com/donations"><strong>https://www.samjiva.com/donations</strong></a></p> <p>David Miliotis - Samjīva Nilayam: Ashtānga Yoga Orange County</p> <p><a href="https://samjiva.com/"><strong>samjiva.com</strong></a> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ashtangayoga"><strong>youtube.com/ashtangayoga</strong></a> &nbsp;| &nbsp;<strong>@samjivanilayam</strong></p>
