Patanjali Yog Sutra | EP #39 | प्राणायाम – जीवन शक्ति का आयाम — Sri Guru

Maharishi Patanjali’s Yog Sutras have laid down in great depth, the importance of Pranayama. A crucial part of Yoga practices worldwide, Pranayama is the art of mastering your Prana — the life force within all creatures. Contrary to popular perception, Pranayama is not limited to breath (श्वास). There is certainly a lot that can be explored about the practice of Pranayama.

Here, Sri Guru gives us the yogic (true) perspective of Pranayam, affirming why it is a key element of Maharishi Patanjali's Ashtang Yog.

_________________________

The teachings of Yoga that had been handed down in an oral tradition over thousands of years from ancient times, are said to have been synthesized and compiled by Maharishi Patanjali in the form of ‘Yog Sutra'— one of the foundational texts of classical Yogic Philosophy. The Patanjali Yog Sutras explain about the अष्टांग योग (Ashtanga Yog) illustrating the 8 Elements for a Holistic Life, i.e. यम (Yama), नियम (Niyam), आसन (Aasana), प्राणायाम (Pranayama), प्रत्याहार (Pratyahara), धारणा (Dharaana), ध्यान (Dhyana), समाधि (Samadhi). The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali consist of 196 Sanskrit Sutras organized in 4 Adhyaya (chapters) — समाधिपाद (Samadhipadah), साधनापाद (Saadhanpadah), विभूतिपाद (Vibhutipadah) and कैवल्यपाद (Kaivalyapadah). He defines Yoga as that which restrains the mind-stuff (Chitta) from taking various forms (Vrutti).

At SRM, Sri Guru has always emphasized the subtler spiritual objective of Yoga; hence, the term ‘YogaYog' was coined— experiencing Union (Yog) through Yoga. Through this Satsang series on the Yog Sutras of Maharishi Patanjali, Sri Guru takes the seekers deeper into the understanding of ‘Union' through physical, mental, and intellectual evolution.
