Summary

This meditation delves into the profound wisdom of the Yoga Sutras, exploring the principle of Satya—truthfulness—as a path to authentic living. More than just avoiding falsehoods, Satya invites us to align our thoughts, words, and actions with the deepest reality of who we are. This practice will guide you to gently examine your inner landscape, uncovering any hidden self-deceptions or inconsistencies between your inner and outer worlds. Through guided reflection and contemplation, you'll cultivate a deeper understanding of what it means to live with integrity, speaking your truth with clarity and compassion, while honoring the truth of others. This meditation is an invitation to embrace your authentic self, leading to greater freedom, peace, and genuine connection.

All week long, you are going to be exploring the second yama from the Yoga Sutras, from the ancient sage, Pontanjali, who is reported to have

written the Yoga Sutras way back between the times of 500 BC to possibly around 200 AD.

1:09.9

These Yoga Sutras were created.

1:13.6

Now when you think about the Yoga Sutras, they have to do with living your life in a way that's based on yoga or unity and do you think that pantanjali put together these yoga
