Pratyahara ~ Mastery of the Senses
The WISDOM podcast Season 3 Episode 96
~ You can always go inward for your answers, your wisdom, your truth. ~
💜
In pratyahara the attention is directed inwards. It is to practice engaging in the world within.
Through the practice of asana and pranayama one turns the mind’s attention within, being totally aware of where the impulse to breathe in and breathe out arises.
Total attention and awareness of that is itself pratyahara, or drawing one’s attention into and within oneself.
One of my favorites and perhaps considered the most important – pratyahara is the veil between the first four limbs which rein mind and body and the final three limbs –dharana, dhyana, and samadhi, are the universal or natural states of yoga, and represent the inner journey.
Pratyahara is the withdrawing of the senses, mind, and consciousness from contact with external objects, and then drawing them inward towards the soul.
