Exploring The Yoga Sutras (Part 4): 1.17-1.28: Isvara, Om, and More! Yoga Philosophy with Rachel

In part 4 of our Patanjali Yoga Sutra exploration, we encounter the concepts of samadhi (meditation/ absorption/yoga) Isvara, and Om! In this section, Patanjali gives us one of my favorite tools for combatting the hamsters of our mind: chanting Om. By then end of this session, you'll have a better understanding of the different kinds of samadhi, the terms "purusha" "prakriti," and the role that Isvara can play in our practice.

We'll also explore the concepts of dualism and non-dualism to deepen our understanding of the context of Patanjali's Sutras.
