This classic text was on your YTT book list, but over half of it went over your head right?
In this gem-packed episode, Ben Kalra takes us way beyond the mat and into the heart of the Yoga Sutras. But don’t worry—this isn’t some dry philosophy lecture. It’s juicy, grounded, and refreshingly real.
Inside the episode:
📜 Are the Sutras written for & applicable to everyone
📿 The flashcard trick that changed everything
😬 A mind pattern you’re definitely stuck in (but don’t realize)
📘 Book One vs. Book Two— the main message of each
📱 What “asana” really meant before we Instagrammed it
🌬️ Why the fifth limb of yoga might be the one you’re skipping
🧠 Are you meditating—or just marinating in your own mind? The nuanced difference between mindfulness and meditation according to Patanjali
🕯️ One word that unlocks the whole path
💥 The sutra Ben lives by (and maybe you will too)
Whether you’ve studied the Sutras or never cracked the spine, this episode will have you thinking, “Wait—how did I miss that?”
