Aparigraha in the Modern World

In spiritual practice, we often come across the tension between non-possessiveness and the desire to possess; from material objects to status and relationships, life is rife with opportunities to get caught up in this pattern. But every time we focus on what we want and how to get it, we create more suffering. Aparigraha is the concept of non-possessiveness, non-greed and non-attachment, and it comprises one of the yamas, or codes of ethical behaviour upon which the practice of yoga is based. As we enter the holiday season - a time of materialism for many - remember this: if you are seeking deep calm inside yourself, then it is not having the things you want that will bring that to you, it is letting go of the attachment to them.
