Patanjali’s 7th Sutra: The 3 Sources of Valid Knowledge

In this video, we explore Patanjali's 7th Sutra from the Yoga Sutras: Pratyakṣa-anumāna-āgamāḥ pramāṇāni. This Sutra discusses the three types of valid knowledge, or Pramāṇa, that guide our understanding of reality: Direct Perception (Pratyakṣa), Inference (Anumāna), and Reliable Testimony (Āgama). Understanding these sources is crucial in the yogic path to quiet the mind and achieve mental clarity.

Join me as we dive deep into how these three types of knowledge affect our everyday lives, and how yoga teaches us to transcend even valid knowledge to attain inner peace.
