The Five Yamas (April 16, 2016)

Below is the audio recording from the Yoga Sutra workshop on 04/16/16:

Brief summary of what we covered:

• Review of the Definition of yoga, Abhyasa (practice) and vairagya (detachment)
• Five Yamas – ahimsa (non-violence), satya (truthfulness), asteya (non-stealing), brahmacharya (abstinence) and aparigraha (non-hoarding)

I sincerely apologize for the poor quality of the audio recording. The digital audio recorder which I normally use somehow failed to record. I used my digital phone for this recording which doesn’t seem to get good quality. Hopefully you will be able to get the essence of the presentation.

You can listen to the podcast as well as subscribe to it on itunes here.

Below are links to the powerpoint presentations used for these discussions:

• Yoga defined
• Ashtanga yoga (eight limbs)
• Kriya, Klesha, Karma

I would love to get your feedback.
