Yoga Sūtras – aṣṭāṅga yoga

April 23, 2019 @ 9:30 am - 10:30 am

€130

Practicing the limbs of yoga eliminates impurities and reveals the light of knowledge, leading to a continuous and keen sense of discernment – Yoga Sūtra 2.28

The eight limbs of yoga, Aṣṭāṅga, are a set of practices that develop our civility in society and prepare us for our journey inward to discover our true nature. Practicing the eight limbs purifies the heart-mind and leads to discriminating perception, viveka. Each part of yoga stabilises and refines a different aspect of our being. – Nicolai Bachman.

Over 7 classes between April to June, we will study the Sūtras that cover the first 5 limbs: Yama (Ethical practices), Niyama (Personal practices), Āsana (refinement of the body), Praṇāyāma (regulation of breath) & Pratyāhāra (tuning out sensory input).

This is Module 2 of the Yoga Sutras 2nd chapter and can be studied independently.
