#171 Adam Keen - Are we practicing Patanjali's yoga?


(www.keenonyoga.com | @adam_keen_ashtanga)


Adam explores the question of what kind of practice we are doing
in modern yoga. He discusses whether we are practicing
Patanjali's yoga and how it aligns with our current aims and
aspirations. Adam highlights that Patanjali's yoga does not focus
much on asana and aims to control the senses and transcend the
suffering of the world. He also delves into the concept of Dharma
and its importance in yoga philosophy. Adam touches on the
evolution of yoga and the inclusion of dynamic asana in modern
practice. He concludes by discussing the influence of tantric
yoga and its emphasis on using the body as a vessel of knowledge.


Key Points


·      Modern yoga practice differs
from Patanjali's yoga in terms of its focus on dynamic asanas and
its aim to live in unity and connection with the world.

·      Dharma, the objective
principles of life, is the basis of yoga philosophy and guides
our actions and attitudes towards the world.

·      The inclusion of dynamic
asana in modern yoga can be seen as a way to use the body as a
vessel of knowledge and to live in harmony with the world.

·      Tantric yoga offers a
body-positive approach and emphasizes the awakening of energy and
the exploration of esoteric practices.

·      Modern yoga is an evolution
of traditional yoga practices, incorporating elements from
Patanjali's yoga and tantric yoga.
