Yoga Mala

I am finally reading Yoga Mala by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. It gives a brief history of Jois, and an overview of the eight limbs of Ashtanga yoga. While reading them, I realized that I have finally memorized the Yamas and NiYamas! So much that I am dreaming about them. :) I've already gone into my thoughts on tapas. I'm going to blog my thoughts about the other sub-limbs over the next few weeks.

Ahimsa, Satya, Asteya, Bramacharya, Aparigraha, Saucha, Santosha, Tapas, Svadhyaya, Isvara pranidhana.
