About this listen

 The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali is a foundational text on yoga philosophy, outlining the path to spiritual enlightenment through self-discipline and mental clarity. It consists of 196 sutras (aphorisms) divided into four chapters: Samadhi (Meditation), Sadhana (Practice), Vibhuti (Powers), and Kaivalya (Liberation). Patanjali describes the Eight Limbs of Yoga, including ethical disciplines (yamas), self-discipline (niyamas), postures (asanas), breath control (pranayama), withdrawal of senses (pratyahara), concentration (dharana), meditation (dhyana), and ultimate absorption (samadhi).** The text emphasizes calming the mind, overcoming suffering, and attaining liberation (kaivalya) through detachment and self-awareness. It remains a core guide for spiritual seekers and practitioners of yoga. Summary by Beauty_23Copyright Beauty_23 Art Literary History & Criticism
