OverviewAn in-depth analysis of the concept of ethics within the yogic world-view and as a part of spiritual meditation, this book discusses the principles of Yama Niyama from the perspective of psychology and philosophy in modern language suitable to the western student. Yama Niyama are considered as the base upon which empathy, trust, self-reflection and a coherent personality can develop, thus facilitating the practice of meditation and introspection. One becomes aware of the subconscious source of one's emotional patterns and the effect that these have on one's self-esteem and social interactions. In addition to an understanding of yogic ethics, the reader will also gain insights into many other aspects of the philosophy and psychology of Tantra Yoga. Recognizing the relativity of our daily experiences yet based in certain essential archetypical truths, Yama Niyama serve to produce an integrated personality on the individual level and the foundations of a healthy society collectively. Yama Niyama work to challenge one's individual limitations and preconceptions, producing a continuous process of mental expansion and deepening awareness of what is means to be human.

The concepts do not arrive in such a direct and immediate way, because for each point of ethics the text proposes reflections and insights on which one could spend months, savouring their contents to make them one's own. The level of detail and depth of the book is really high. In the pages of this text we can become familiar with Yama and Niyama, developing awareness about our thoughts and actions so that we can begin to shift our perspective towards love and universal unity. I recommend it as a personal journey, but it could very well be used as a guided exploration in group work or a yoga teacher training program.'
