Sutra 2.33 with James Boag

So what to do once we to find ourselves being attracted to act in ways in which would cross towards yamaniyaman. Sutra 33. So Pratipaksha Pavanan is a huge thought, which is gonna be elaborated within the subsequent sutra to a couple vital stage, but additionally actually thru the remainder of the bankruptcy, to some extent, thru the remainder of the sutras. What’s Pretipaksha? So Paksha manner wing. So Pretipaksha kinda manner the opposing wing.

In Indian philosophical discourse, the Pretipaksha manner the opposing view or a special point of view. Remembering that Boag is a darshener, some way of seeing, and yoga is inviting us to ask our personal approach of seeing to turn into wider, sooner, extra inclusive, much less partial. So, Vittarca Padani, so in terms of, when it so occurs that we’re having troubling ideas, that we’re having tendencies that might take us clear of yemeniyama that might take us into the varieties of habits which are in reality gonna enmeshes an increasing number of in that pointless cushy carry. The ache this is to be have shyed away from. What to do about that?

And probably says, After we really feel via those troubling concepts, those concepts that might chain us to extra distress, allow us to domesticate the other point of view. Now, every now and then once we pay attention the theory of a special point of view, we will get an affiliation or a connotation of thesis and antithesis, the only facet and the opposite. And this can be a misrepresentation of what’s being described right here. It isn’t one facet and some other. It manner domesticate other views within the plural. It manner domesticate other issues of view within the plural.

So if I’m feeling drawn against a undeniable approach of behaving that isn’t yemen and yaman, let me imagine very other issues of view. So the some of the key practices in Pratipaksha Bhavanah is to in reality make a tradition of making an allowance for viewpoints which are other from those that we’re conditioned to. And particularly right here, that is within the context, are popping out of pointless struggling and cultivating ahinsa, cultivating that team spirit. So within the subsequent sutra, Patania’s gonna give us much more element about this, however elementary concept that I might like to emphasise is that is about cultivating that 360 stage excuse me, 360 stage world equivision and equipoise. So we will navigate probably tense scenarios skillfully.

So now within the subsequent sutra, we are gonna get the entire concept of the, those factor, those troubling ideas and the way to handle them, elaborated in a lot more element.
