The 8 Limbs: Dharana
Welcome back to another enlightening episode! Today, we explore Dharana, the sixth limb of Patanjali's 8 limbs of yoga. Often confused with meditation, Dharana is the step before meditation, where we strive to quiet the mind's recurring thoughts. Instead of clearing the mind completely, we concentrate on a single object, excluding all other thoughts. It can be an internal image or an external object like candle gazing. By consistent practice, concentration becomes natural and effortless. Join us on this captivating episode as we unlock the power of concentration and delve into profound insights.
