Haha now I have to comment and upvote on it (private joke, for anyone reading this). It's great to see a post on the yamas and niyamas on Steem - so many posts about asana, but there's the more spiritual side of the physical practice where the magic happens. I always think yoga is like a gateway drug to the rest of the yogic world.

I love Donna Farhi's writing - I have a book of hers on my shelf. I also have Light on Yoga too, and a few other Iyengars. I've been reading the Gita a little of late, just a few pages daily.

I always wonder about samadhi. Do you think it's a final result of years of practice, or do you think we get glimpses of it on the way that help us understand true bliss? I'm for that - little glimpses of divinity. xx
