YSP Workshop (2/17/18), review yamas of Ahimsa (non-violence) and Satya (truthfulness)

I am pleased to present an audio recording of the monthly workshop on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali held on Saturday, 02/17/18:

Brief summary of what we covered:

Since a majority of the participants for this session were new, we decided to go over a review of the Yoga Sutras and then review the five yamas and five niyamas: 

• Sutras 2.29 – 2.36
  • Listing the eight limbs of yoga
  • Listing the five yamas and niyamas
  • Discussion on the yamas of Ahimsa (non-violence – sutra 2.35) and Satya (truthfulness – sutra 2.36)
