Yoga Philosophy

Yoga Philosophy is the study of ancient teachings that explore the mind-body connection, ethics, meditation, and the pursuit of spiritual growth through self-awareness and mindfulness. By learning yoga philosophy, individuals can deepen their practice, cultivate inner peace, and align their lives with timeless principles that promote harmony and balance. It’s a profound tool for personal transformation, creating a sense of purpose, and living a life rooted in compassion and wisdom.

Sadhguru looks at the true purpose of yoga, and explains how health, peace and joy are only the side benefits, not the true goal of yoga. He elaborates on the immense capabilities that lie untapped in every human being, which can be uncovered if explored the inner dimensions of the human being.

#Sadhguru
Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. An arresting blend of profundity and pragmatism, his life and work serves as a reminder that yoga is a contemporary science, vitally relevant to our times.

In part 4 of our Patanjali Yoga Sutra exploration, we encounter the concepts of samadhi (meditation/ absorption/yoga) Isvara, and Om! In this section, Patanjali gives us one of my favorite tools for combatting the hamsters of our mind: chanting Om. By then end of this session, you'll have a better understanding of the different kinds of samadhi, the terms "purusha" "prakriti," and the role that Isvara can play in our practice.

We'll also explore the concepts of dualism and non-dualism to deepen our understanding of the context of Patanjali's Sutras.

Recognizing Your Self Through Yoga: Aimee Bohn at TEDxFlourCity

Namaste! I have humbly made this short video on ancient, yogic philosophy because I think it is worth sharing anything that might allow us to gain a little more insight into this journey called Life. Humbly - because it would be reckless to suppose this is the full picture of a vast and ancient field, so please bear that in mind; and - because I am very much still a student. While I do feel I have gained many insights over the years, it is also a case of the Socratic dilemma: The more I know, the more I realize I don't know. But this can be healthy. It can spur us on, allowing curiosity, openness - and some of the many concepts I mention in the video - to guide us. I hope you mind find a little something here that you needed today - maybe just a bit of calm. Much love, Helle

The Nature of the Mind Explained | Yoga Philosophy

Of all the things in the world that a human being can do, why yoga? Sadhguru explains, whether you sing, dance or whatever you do, it is an expression of who you are. Yoga is not an expression, but is about determining who you are and the nature of who you wish to be.

#Sadhguru
Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. An arresting blend of profundity and pragmatism, his life and work serves as a reminder that yoga is a contemporary science, vitally relevant to our times.

Curious about the historical roots of yoga? Want to know more about the philosophical and spiritual underpinnings of physical yoga practice? Wonder how old all those yogic postures really are? And what does the Yogasūtra have to do with sun salutations and vinyāsa flow, anyways?

Join Seth Powell, PhD Candidate at Harvard University, for an exciting 18-hour online course that will provide you with an in-depth introduction to yoga’s multifaceted history and philosophy. Through video lectures, slides, PDF handouts, quizzes, and optional readings, together we will journey from yoga’s shrouded origins as an ascetic tradition in ancient India, to the emergence of postural yoga in the West and around the globe—a journey that takes us from the periphery of premodern Indian civilization to the center of modern American health and wellness.

How Yoga Philosophy Impacts Your Thoughts

A wide-ranging discussion with Laura von Ostrowski about her new book, available here as a PDF: https://bit.ly/LvO-book

Laura’s work explores how modern practitioners use the Yoga Sūtra, focusing particularly on Ashtanga Vinyasa.

However, as we discuss, this raises lots of broader questions. What exactly is yoga philosophy? How does it relate to practice and everyday life? If we reinterpret texts to suit contemporary priorities, is it better to write new ones ourselves?

Contemporary Yoga Philosophy – A conversation with Laura von Ostrowski

825 views

This is the wonderful video made by brilliant photographer Alessandro Sigismondi some years ago in India of me practising and talking about my the philosophy and purpose of my practice and how that relates to the philosophy and purpose of our lives. Many people have asked me for the transcription of what I say in the video, so I have that below and I have republished the video here with embedded captions to make it easier to understand.

This video has been viewed almost one million times if you include the original version on Alessandro's site at https://youtu.be/q0wfA3GYo58 as well as a number of copies on Facebook and elsewhere. Thank you to everyone who has commented and shared this so far. This was just an unrehearsed stream of consciousness talk and I have a lot more to say about the relationship between the philosophy purpose of your practice and your life.

For more on this please see my site at www.simonborgolivier.com

EDITED VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

“For me, yoga is a way of life. I live by the first two stages of yoga, Yama and Niyama.

Yama for me, says to practice and to live in a way which is gentle, balanced, giving of nourishment and freedom.

Gentle is Ahimsa.

Balanced is Satya.

Giving the opposite of taking is Asteya.

And for me, Brahmacarya means not to not make love, but rather to nourish relationships.

And Aparigraha, non-attachment means to be free.

Niyama means to me, the passionate inner quest to remove the obstacles of happiness and loving connection.

Saucha is to clean or, for me, to remove the obstacles that block the movement of energy inside us.

We need to tense less, stretch less, or make our body move more balanced, breathe less. Fitness is when you learn to do things while breathing less, do more things while breathing less. Think less, concentration, focus more.

Santosha is sometimes said to be contentment, but actually, it's the choice to feel how you want to feel. Santosha is the choice to be happy, not to wait to be happy, to recognize that happiness is not something that you wait for, but rather happiness is something you choose and you can choose misery as well. But happiness is a good choice if you want it.

Tapas is not just ardour or austerity. It's more the burning desire, the passionate desire to do your best.

Svādhyāya is not just study, but it's inner study, a study of self, find out what you're here for, why we're here, who we are, why we are.

Īśvarapraṇidhāna is not just devotion to an external god, but it's the recognition that we're all connected, connected like a mother and child in love.

For me, it's the devotional recognition, the recognition that we live in an ocean of love.

I try and live by three principles, enjoy your life, look after your body and help other people enjoy their lives.

Enjoy your life sounds selfish, but you could enjoy your life as a choice. It doesn't matter what you're doing or how you are, enjoying it a choice and it's a good choice.

Look after your body because without looking after your body, you can't do much in your life.

And the most important thing, perhaps, to do with your body is to help other people enjoy their lives. And if the world lived like this, the world would be a better place, I think.

Therefore, I think it's our personal commitment to every day, do something, some personal practice, your yoga, your meditation, your walk, whatever you do, some people don't even want to call what they do yoga, but allow that personal time to connect with yourself, to give some love to yourself, to appreciate yourself, to give some space, time and energy to yourself.

Once you've given to yourself and you know what gentle loving care for yourself feels like, then you can share it with the others. Give it to yourself first, look after your own body first, your own health first and once you've done that a little bit every day, then give it to the world, share it with your family, your friends, the people you love, the people you don't know, even the people you don't like and make it the most important yoga, the yoga of connection.

To connect with others, connect with the world and to eventually recognize and appreciate and make full use of the fact that we're fully connected as one family, one universe in love. I think this is the most important yoga.” – Simon Borg-Olivier

A curious Taoist sage, Lao Tzu, was aware of the human quirk of getting so lost in intellectual prisons that people forget the natural way. And so, they force and strive, swimming against the stream, sometimes ending up further away from their goals than when they started. So, what if we stopped trying so hard and found a different, more effortless way of getting things done? This video explores Lao Tzu & The art of not trying.

The Gunas are a foundational concept that underlies yogic practice, which comes from Samkhya philosophy. Samkhya philosophy is a philosophical system that predates yoga philosophy. A significant part of the Yoga sutras rests on foundational concepts brought forward by Samkhya philosophy. To understand the Gunas, we must first understand the concepts of Prakriti and Purusha.

“In Eastern thought, non-violence is so valued that it stands as the very core and foundation of all yoga philosophy and practice” - Deborah Adele

Welcome to this month's Yama focus, Ahimsa or non-violence in yoga with our latest video "Exploring Ahimsa: The Foundation of Yoga Philosophy".

I hope you enjoy my sharing my passion for yoga philosophy by reading this chapter of Deborah Adele's book here 📙: https://go.tessaraeyoga.com/TheYamasAndNiyamas-DeborahAdeleBook.

The integration of Ahimsa through courage, self-love, creating balance, dealing with powerlessness, contemplating violence toward others, and developing compassion is paradigm-shifting, to say the least.

Please share with friends and family as I believe all will benefit from considering non-violence and please let me know your comments as well.

If you are looking for new yoga practices from me, check out my online studio for Chair Yoga, Gentle/Restorative Yoga, Workshops, LYT style vinyasa, and Yoga maintenance for all levels. Also this year we are focusing on arm strength. Find over 350 videos at tessaraeyoga.com.
