Location:The Arlington Center, 369 Massachusetts Avenue, Arlington, MA


Admission: $10


Event description:


We will be having two periods of meditation and a workshop on the Eight Limbs of Yoga. The Eight Limbs are part of Raja Yoga or the Royal Path. Raja yoga helps us to advance our level of consciousness to the highest level.


Here is a brief overview of each of the Eight Limbs Of Yoga we will discuss:


Yamas: are rules of moral code and include
ahimsa (non-violence or non-harming),
satya(truthfulness),
asteya (non-stealing),
bramacharya (sexual restraint),
aparigraha (non-possessiveness).


Niyamas: are rules of personal behavior including
saucha (purity),
santosha (contentment),tapas (discipline or austerity),
svadhyaya (spiritual studies)
Ishvara Pranidhana (constant devotion to God)


Asana: refers to yoga postures but in Patanjali’s initial practice, it referred to mastering the body to sit still for meditation. The practice of yoga asanas came about eight centuries later, which helped disciples ready their bodies for meditation.


Pranayama: are yoga breathing techniques designed to control prana or vital life force


.Pratyahara means withdrawal of the senses.


Dharana: refers to concentration.


Dhyana: is the practice of meditation.


Samadhi: is merging with the divine.
