Episode Description

In today's episode we will be diving into the Yamas. This episode guides you through the practical philosophy of the Yamas, the moral compass of yoga. We take a deep dive into these behavioral observances, offering insights on how they influence our interactions with others and ourselves. We discuss how adopting these guidelines can lead to personal growth and a shift in our reactions to difficult situations.

From philosophy to practice, we also explore our inherent fear of the unknown and how to capitalize on it. We offer effective strategies for breaking out of your comfort zone, fostering authenticity, and redefining habits in a way that truly serves you. Learn how to pause, reflect, and inquire before you act, using yoga as a launchpad for this profound personal transformation. We discuss the vital role of moderation in our journey and how understanding our actions in the context of greed and restraint can lead to a more harmonious interaction with the world. This journey is about more than yoga—it’s about living a life that is authentic, conscious, and deeply fulfilling.

Shortly thereafter, as Ajahn Chah’s illness progressed and he was no longer able to speak, the Sangha of Wat Nong Pah Pong appointed Ajahn Liem to take over the abbotship. He continues to fulfill that duty up to the present day and has maintained The Harbor by Ernest Poole Loyal Books The Harbor was written in 1915 by Ernest Poole.
