Satya: The Yoga of Truth in a Filtered World

What even is truth these days?In this episode of the Yoga Ethics for Modern Living series, we explore Satya — the yogic principle of truthfulness — and what it means in an age of Instagram filters, personal branding, and performative authenticity.Is truth about facts, self-expression, or deeper alignment with who we really are? Why does it sometimes feel easier to be nice than to be honest — and what’s the cost?We look at Mike Tyson’s brutally bad judgement, Jake Paul’s curated chaos, and Joan Didion’s reflections on narrative and self-deception, all through the lens of modern spirituality, mindfulness, and ethical living.Truth Hurts — but it hurts so good.
