Summary

You might not be able to control events around you, but you can control how you respond to the disruption in the world today. Be guided as you repeat an affirmation to feel safe. It's difficult to know what's really true these days. Separating truth from deception has become more difficult than ever. Formerly trusted institutions such as political, economical, educational, health, and judicial organizations have sown seeds of mistrust over the decades. Many people are speaking and demanding their truth be heard. The truth is what is so badly needed in our world today. Sifting through lies and deception requires listening. Each time you sit down to meditate, you tap into your inner truth. The more you share your truth, the more integrity you add to the world. This week, you'll be exploring truth from the perspective of the ancient tradition of Satya, or truthfulness, from Pantanjali's Yoga Sutras. This is part of a collection of meditation series focused on sending more peace and love into the world. You'll focus on truthfulness to help cultivate a calmer, kinder approach to the problems in the world today. This is part 2 of a 7-part Truthfulness meditation series episodes 2103-2109. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: You're invited to take part in a Truth Quest where every day this week you become aware of thoughts, words, and actions that aren't based on truth. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION TECHNIQUES: Affirmation - "I listen to my inner truth." Breathing - Inhale: Calm your thoughts. Exhale: Listen to your truth. Mudra - Ushas Mudra Chakra - 5th - at throat - inner peace Herb - Tulsi - immunity Yoga Asana - Ukatasana - Chair Pose

0:00.0	This is episode 2,104 of the Daily Meditation Podcast.
0:07.0	I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you back to day two of our series. We are exploring a very important and
0:19.6	timely theme in our world today and that is the theme of truthfulness. All week long you
0:30.0	are going to be exploring the second Yama from the yoga
0:35.8	sutras from the ancient sage, Pontangali, who is
0:41.1	reported to have written the Yoga Sutras way back between the times of 500
0:50.4	BC to possibly around 200 a.D. during that time frame the
1:00.4	yoga sutras were reported to have been written.
1:03.6	We're not sure exactly when during that time frame,
1:06.7	but that's when it's estimated.
1:09.9	These Yoga Sutras were created.
1:15.0	Now when you think about the Yoga Sutras,
1:18.1	they have to do with living your life in a way that's based on yoga or unity.
1:30.0	And do you think that,anjali put together these yoga sutras because everything in life was fantastic?
1:41.0	I doubt it. The Yoga Sutras are ways to elevate your consciousness, in particular
1:50.4	the Yamas. There are Yamas which you're exploring for the next
1:56.4	several weeks you explored the Yamma of Ahimza or non-violence in last week's series. This week you were exploring the Yama of
2:09.5	truthfulness. And these are right ways of action and it seems to me that in our world today we
2:19.2	need to get back to the basics. These sutras stand the test of time as to what's needed in the world today.
2:32.0	So as you explore the Yamas, you will be ready for whatever comes our
2:38.8	way in the coming months as we go through a pandemic, where there's so much uncertainty, so
2:48.1	much deception.
