Yamas and Niyamas: The '1st and 2nd Angas' by Sri M

[@adarsharao]

Putting here for a quick reference. Do go through the video fully (swadhyaya). Yama: 12:45 1. Ahimsa : non violence - Don't hurt.. No violence in thought, in words, in intensions / emotions about anyone / anything. Watch the thoughts and cut down hatred, jealousy and hurtful feelings. 17:17 2. Satya : stick to the truth - bring down the number of lies I tell out of compulsion or fear or just for show off. 19:10 3. Astheya : not stealing - Remove thought of having something that does not belong to me. Applies to desire for the person of opposite sex as well. 21:38 4. Brahmacharya : Restrain on Sex - Sexual desire should listen to my mind and not the other way around. 25:22 5. Aparigraha : non possession - simple living and always remember that things that I have can go away anytime. Don't take things for granted. Niyama: 29:55 1. Shoucha: purity - physical cleanliness and mental purity as well 30:35 2. Santhosha : Contentment - Understand that happiness is a state of mind. External stuff can't bring peace. 32:27 3. Tapa : fire - to find the ultimate truth. 34:43 4. Swadhyaya: self study - study Bhagavad gita / upanishads / bhahma sutras / yoga sutras / Bhagavatam / complete works of swamy vivekananda 36:10 5. Ishwara Pranidhana - dedicate life to Ishwara - think that a spark of the divine exists within me and fix attention on it. 26:45 Mahavratham - observe these at all times in all places.

One of the most practical spiritual teachers i've had the fortune of listening to

[@brendankelly423]

I just love the practicality of what Sri M presents. He takes the perspective of a beginner. It is most grounding in how life actually is. I had an idea that I am at some advanced stage of spiritual evolution. Listening to Sri M is most illuminating and revealing as to the reality of my current state. In fact, I now feel more compassionate towards my own ignorance.

@Brendan I know what you mean. When I see more clearly and forgive my lack, it becomes easier to forgive lack in others. This is one of the best benefits. 🙏

[@brendankelly423]

Jennifer Grove , Indeed. This is a journey of Self awareness and it is a journey of knowledge plus experience. Knowledge without experience is a waste of time for us householders. Sri M speaks to householders because he is a householder himself. Hence the more I understand my own ignorance the more compassion I feel for others.

[@Shivam2k25]

Brendan Kelly, Your words resonate exactly with what I feel about my state.

Om Hreem Sree Gurubhyo Namaha 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. Find myself very fortunate in coming across with Sri M through social media!

[@babeksaber2702]

Thank you sir. I think you nailed these two anges. Of all your talks I regard this one the best and more reviling. In my limited experience, as you mentioned, as one practices Pratyahara and develops Dharana naturally, Yamas and Niyams become elevated. As you said, without purity and innocence surely nothing can be gained in this Sadhana. God Bless

In the Talk Sri M refers to a previous talk on the Samadhi Pada....I have searched but can't seem to find it So as to Be able to start with his Beautiful Commentary at the beginning of the Slokas.......Although as M Suggests Starting with the Yamas and Niyamas is Really Important as a Base for all other practices in the Yoga Sutras...... So I was Wondering whether Someone could post a link So it's possible to to go back and Hear Sri M's Beautiful commentary on the Samadhi Panda Sometime Soon..... Pranams Sri M for All of Your Beautiful Teachings Thanks So much & Blessings and Pranams to All....!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :)

[@prabhakarhegde2370]

Hari Om, I like Sri M and his insights a lot. Thank you. In the context of BrahmaCharya - I feel you took a narrower meaning of the word in this context. Isn't the meaning of BrahmaCharya to say? - In the path of seeking Brahman, conserving energy in speech, thinking and work etc..

Sri M 🛐 🕉️,Tapasya, could it also mean purifying yourself. Become so pure, that if at all what u wish for, is granted from thin air by the almighty? But contradictory to it one who is on way to Tapas, does not wish anything, But again. Contradictory to it we all are humans, sometimes we wish, sometimes we need, then we bow to him and forget it. But HE remembers🤔🤔🍭. Oh! This life is a a circle that the Whriligig beetles do on the surface of water......🤔🤔
