  • The Yamas are primarily concerned with the world around us and our interaction with it. By considering these aspects in our daily practice on and off the yoga mat, all of our decisions and actions come from a more considered, aware and ‘higher’ place, helping us to become more authentic towards ourselves and others.
    In this talk Jennilee Toner shares her enthusiasm and passion for the 5 Yamas: Ahimsa (non-violence), Satya (Truthfulness), Asteya (Non-stealing), Brahmacharya (Moderation of the Senses) and Aparigraha (Greedlessness)

    Beautiful - I always have trouble reading about the 8 limbs and sutras and everything. My brain just shuts down. But this, this is exactly what I need. Thank you for explaining it all.

    Truth without tact is cruelty. You're so right to say that it is an art to balance truth and nonviolence.

    I always love JenniLee's teachings! I see the Yamas as how I move about the world, how I take action in the world and the possible impacts of those actions. Interesting reflection on Bramacharya; I have read that it can be translated as right use of energy so where you direct your energy, which I think is like JenniLee's interpretation but just explained slightly differently. Thanks for a great video!

    With respect to the farmer, a lie of omission is still a lie. Because that's so, the farmer chose to honour ahimsa ahead of sattya on that occasion. That being said, he did the best he could under the circumstances. Great video.

      Right? And, like you, I kinda thought, to him, he actually found a way he felt was the most peaceful for himself. It works, but I don't know if I could do that.

    Ahimsa
    Non violence...
    Dear yogi's, we need to extend that also to the animals! To many yogi's are still eating meat and dairy...
    To me true Ahimsa is living a plant based yogic life.

      If you really are following a Yogic path, you should study Ayurveda - Vedic medicine system which has some amazing aushadi's from COW's milk. COW was treated as a mother, part of family and not raised for beef, fed steroids and then slaughtered like in West. You are right in western concept of living but as a Yogi if you have a COW, you raise it it feeds your family. It is looking at the coin we need to look at both sides. In Indian culture Satvik food consists of mil and satvik food is the purest food for body and soul

      @@mani1078 Please read my comments properly I never said how are they being treated currently.india is not immune to Industrialization and commercialization. Contrary to your perception please do in-depth research , India is not only what you see but farmers are doing so much to preserve how cows are treated. Every culture indian or western has good and bad but ancient knowledge is what India is known for and should be preserved and thank God in West people see that and are trying to preserve that which is good about India. Let's not be too ashamed of being indian

    brahmacharya as a moderation of the senses? which part of the word would suggest that? Brahma or acharya? yeah, you are right - none. OK; self-restraint may be part of it, but it doesn't cover even half of it. living as a God comes much closer and why? because you have just so and so much energy in your disposal at the given moment and it should be you who decides where and how to use that energy. not your desire, not your thoughts or feelings, you. meaning - you are in charge. when you are a master of all your energies, then you can call yourself a Brahmachari or Brahmacharini.

  • @dharmayogaashram979

    Why are you stealing yoga from Hindu Dharma? You are distorting what Patanjali taught to promote your agenda.

    sorry , I got bored pretty much straight away with the farmers story. but hey that's truthfulness, right. 😉. may continue later, and try to block out how you end sentences with "you know."
