Description
Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. This lecture begins with the reminder that stable Yoga-Sadhana can only come when we develop a sense of sanctity towards practice. The two stages of dispassion are discussed. In the first, all tendencies remain only as tendencies. We are able to control them through dispassion. In the second stage, even those tendencies are no longer functional. To become established in the first stage of dispassion requires disciplined beneficial spiritual associations. Then concentration only more and more subtle objects become possible in Yoga. In contrast, Vedanta is about a direct inquiry into reality. With concentration, Samadhi, come tremendous skills. Yamas and Niyamas are needed to practice higher concentration. Verses: I.6, I.12, I.14, I.17, II.30, II.32
