Description
Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. The importance of Yamas as an ethical foundation and Niyamas as a way of conserving energy is reviewed. Without them, the practice of advanced Asanas and Pranayamas can be dangerous. Pratyahara is reviewed and Swami expands on the notion that the mental power to restrain the senses must be greater than the restlessness of the body energy. The topic of Samadhi is defined as the transcendental dimension of Dhyana, meditation. There, the subject, object, and meditation process merge. The language of Samadhi is silence. Sri Ramakrishna said knowledge merges in the Vedas, the Vedas in Gayatri, Gayatri in Om and Om in silence. Verse: III.3
