#171 Adam Keen - Are we practicing Patanjali's yoga?

(www.keenonyoga.com | @adam_keen_ashtanga)

Adam explores the question of what kind of practice we are doing in modern yoga. He discusses whether we are practicing Patanjali's yoga and how it aligns with our current aims and aspirations. Adam highlights that Patanjali's yoga does not focus much on asana and aims to control the senses and transcend the suffering of the world. He also delves into the concept of Dharma and its importance in yoga philosophy. Adam touches on the evolution of yoga and the inclusion of dynamic asana in modern practice. He concludes by discussing the influence of tantric yoga and its emphasis on using the body as a vessel of knowledge.

Key Points

  • · Modern yoga practice differs from Patanjali's yoga in terms of its focus on dynamic asanas and its aim to live in unity and connection with the world.
  • · Dharma, the objective principles of life, is the basis of yoga philosophy and guides our actions and attitudes towards the world.
  • · The inclusion of dynamic asana in modern yoga can be seen as a way to use the body as a vessel of knowledge and to live in harmony with the world.
  • · Tantric yoga offers a body-positive approach and emphasizes the awakening of energy and the exploration of esoteric practices.
  • · Modern yoga is an evolution of traditional yoga practices, incorporating elements from Patanjali's yoga and tantric yoga.
