Last week we saw about 5 sub
divisions of Yama- social discipline.
Now let us go through 5 sub
divisions of Niyama- Individual discipline.
Niyama Sub Divisions
Soucha
Santhosha
Tapas
Swadhya
Esawar pranithahan
Meanings in short
Sucha – is about individual cleanliness
Santhosha- Contented life
Tapas- Austerity Leading a wholesome
simple life avoiding luxury and blatant display of wealth
Swadhya- Attaining self realization
by reading holy books
Eswara pranidhana – Remembering
Almighty in each and every moment of life and all actions
Let us remember the fact that the
eighth stage of yoga- Samathi – self realization leading to realization of
Almighty is the ultimate aim and goal of yoga.
All the other 7 divisions and sub
divisions are only stepping stones to reach the ultimate goal.
