Embark on the Path of the 8 Limbs: A Journey to Self-Realisation

Welcome, seekers of wisdom! Today, we explore the transformative 8 limbs of yoga and their profound role in meditation. These ancient teachings, gifted by sage Patanjali, unlock our true potential.

Raja Yoga, the "Royal" path, integrates body, mind, and spirit. It leads to moksha, spiritual liberation. The 8 limbs guide us on this extraordinary journey.


Briefly, let's unravel the magic of each limb:

  1. Yamas (Social Code): Harmonise interactions, release emotional burdens.
  2. Niyamas (Personal Code): Cultivate self-discipline and reflection.
  3. Asana (Postures): Enhance vitality and alignment.
  4. Pranayama (Breath Control): Purify and invigorate body and mind.
  5. Pratyahara (Withdrawal of Senses): Turn inward, quiet the mind.
  6. Dharana (Concentration): Focus the mind, transcend scattered thoughts.
  7. Dhyana (Meditation): Surrender to unbroken flow, touch the divine.
  8. Samadhi (Enlightened Consciousness): Merge with the object of focus, realize the self.

Embrace the path of the 8 limbs. The journey begins now.
