Yoga Sutra 2.32 शौचसंतोषतपःस्वाध्यायेश्वरप्रणिधानानि नियमाः śaucasaṃtoṣatapaḥsvādhyāyeśvarapraṇidhānāni niyamāḥ Niyama is purity, contentment, self-discipline, self-study, and surrender to the Universal Self As a complement to the five Yamas we studied last month, Niyama encourages us to cultivate inner strength through five essential observances: Saucha (purity), Santosha (contentment), Tapas (self-discipline), Svadhyaya (self-study), and Isvara Pranidhana (surrender to the Universal Self). These principles invite clarity, peace, and an unshakeable joy into our daily routines and interactions with ourselves.
Sutras 2.40 to 2.45 offer insights into the development of each of the five Niyamas. We’ll again use the practice of pratipaksha bhavanam to describe how we can “cultivate the contrary.” |
