Cultivating Ahimsa: Non-Violent Thoughts, Words, And Actions

A meditation exploring the most foundational principle of Yogic philosophy, Ahimsa, or non-violence to oneself, others, and the environment. Ahimsa is the first of the Yamas, abstentions, or the first of the eight limbs of Yoga, which is the Yogi's path to reaching the ultimate goal of Samadhi, or liberation from worldly suffering. Being the first principle of the first limb, it takes precedence over all the others, as the gentle quality of Ahimsa is necessary for clarity of mind and prolonged states of stillness and integration with our true nature. So find a comfortable seat, and begin your journey of releasing violent states of mind and ways of being.
