Key Points

Tradition in Ashtanga Yoga is a way of working, a pattern that is carried over from the old to the new.

Tradition needs to be contextualized and adapted to suit the modern epoch and the needs of the current age.

Yoga asana and philosophy are context-sensitive and need to evolve to suit the values and understanding of the modern world.

There is a balance between tradition and non-tradition, where pragmatism and maintaining an ideal coexist.

Belonging to a tradition can provide a sense of support and community, but it is important to critically evaluate and adapt the tradition to suit individual needs.
