Yoga is a practice of repetition, says the head monk at sanyasa. He explains how yoga can be used to help people live their life with more wisdom and insight than they have ever had before. The monks are taught by an ancient Indian philosophy called sankes amganum nasti - 'there is no knowledge like sankya'
The mind is very restless, turbulent, strong and obstinate, O Krishna. It appears to me that it is more difficult to control than the wind" - Bhagavad Gita (6.34)
"Lord Krishna said: O mighty-armed son of Kunti, what you say is correct; the mind is indeed very difficult to restrain. But by practice and detachment, it can be controlled" - Bhagavad Gita (6.35)
Inspired by these verses, Swami Sarvapriyananda provides invaluable guidance on improving our meditation.
