Ep. 2.26: Yoga Sutras 3.25 - 28 - Touching Upon Secret Knowledge - David Andrew Miliotis - Ashtanga Yoga

Third Chapter, Vibhūti Pāda 3.25 - 28, Touching Upon Secret Knowledge - The Sun, the Moon & the Eyes

Touching Upon Secret Knowledge - The Sun, the Moon & the Eyes: How do we gain knowledge of something that is too subtle to be known? This is the quest of the Yogi: Becoming more attuned to the underlying realities which seem to allude ordinary awareness. In this week's lesson, we look at how the sun, moon & our eyes have a direct - not so esoteric - relevance to our yoga practice & journey in life.

Live Class: Wednesdays, 5:30 - 6:30 pm (PDT) - May 13 – July 29

Chanting & Studying, 3rd Chapter of the Yoga Sūtras, Vibhūti Pāda: Chapters 1 & 2 lay the basis for the entire yogic process. Chapter 1 lays the primary foundational stone of clarity & clam. Chapter 2 gives the secondary step of self-analysis and asks us to dive deeply into the study & practice of the first four limbs: Yama, Niyama, Āsana & Prāṇāyāma. Once well established in these limbs, Chapter 3 presents an organized approach to our practice of self-analysis. This third chapter, Vibhūti Pāda, directs our attention to certain aspects of ourselves. First on the list: Develop the art of listening without superimposing our own thoughts on to what is heard. Patañjali also takes us step-by-step through various places in the body. All this to assist our process of becoming more purposeful and more awakened in our lives. Chapter 3, Vibhūti Pāda provides us with a checklist for thoroughness in Rāja Yoga.

These classes always express the Sūtras in a practical manner relevant to the modern Yogī / Yoginī. And in this process, you will learn to recite each sūtra, the meaning of each word, and also how the sūtras are inter-related to one another. Study of the Yoga Sūtras is a complex and intricate process that never ceases to fascinate & inspire our relationship with life & yoga for years on end.
