In this short book, anyone can explore the ten Yama (restraints) and Niyama (observances) practices from the spiritual eight-limbed Yoga tradition, that help us live deeply.

These practices are not a prescription or forced rules or regulations on anyone. There are no Do's and Don’ts in life. There is no right or wrong; good or evil in this world. There is just existence. But some actions take us away from (negative) or bring us near to (positive) our real self and eternal joy.

We do not follow anything because someone else wants us to or some external teacher has forced us to follow these rules.

It is our existence. No one can exist as us. Only we can free our self if we truly want to. Even a highly advanced guru cannot exist as us. Otherwise, any enlightened master could have made the whole world enlightened.

Like Buddha said, “Buddhas do not wash away sins with water,
They do not remove beings suffering with their hands, Nor do they transfer
their realizations to others; By showing them the real path of Nirvana, beings
are liberated.”

The practices of Yama and Niyama are to balance and steady our own energy so we can realize the Absolute Truth. Without a strong foundation of Yamas and Niyamas, any spiritual practice remains superficial and even recreational.

Thank you for supporting the work of Living Deeply Foundation.
