6. Ahimsa: The Practice of Non-Violence

In a world that often feels fragmented and divided, the ancient yogic principle of Ahimsa offers us a path forward.Ahimsa, meaning non-violence, is the very first ethical restraint in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, and its placement is no accident. The sages understood that before we can practice any other aspect of yoga, we must first learn to eliminate violence—not just physical harm, but the subtle violence we carry in our thoughts, words, and judgments toward ourselves and others.This week, we’re exploring how the practice of Ahimsa dissolves the illusion of separation (maya) that creates suffering, and guides us back to our natural state of union with all beings.Because when we remember that we all share the same divine essence, non-violence becomes not just a moral choice, but a spiritual remembrance of who we truly are.To learn more visit: throughtheveil11.substack.comWork with me:Book a Life Path Numerology & Tarot ReadingBook an Energy Healing SessionSchedule a Free ConsultResources Mentioned:The Origins of Yoga ArticleMeditate with me:Listen to my Meditations Get full access to Lately with Lexi at latelywithlexi.substack.com/subscribe
