A Deeper Look at the Yamas and Niyamas

Keen on Yoga Podcast #190 - Adam Keen www.keenonyoga.com | @adam_keen_ashtanga "The yamas look like monks' vows." "Yoga is a physical method of inner conflict resolution." Adam delves into the complexities of the yamas and niyamas, exploring their relevance in modern yoga practice. He emphasizes the importance of inner alignment through Hatha yoga before adhering to moral codes, suggesting that true ethical living arises from a clear inner state. Adam discusses the challenges of moral actions, the nuances of non-violence, and the concept of Dharma in contemporary society. He advocates for a deeper inquiry into the nature of goodness and authenticity, ultimately positioning yoga as a process of self-discovery and alignment rather than mere adherence to social morality.
