    Yoga Sutras of Pantanjali Explained - BOOK 3: Psychic Superpowers & Samadhi

    What if the final stages of yoga aren’t about flexibility—but inner mastery? In this episode, I dive deep into Book 3 of the Yoga Sutras, where Patanjali explores the advanced limbs of yoga—Dharana, Dhyana, and Samadhi—and how their fusion, called Samyama, unlocks not just insight, but mystical abilities (siddhis). We explore: 🔹 What Samyama really means and why it matters 🔹 The role of concentration, meditation, and absorption in spiritual growth 🔹 Patanjali’s teachings on psychic powers, past lives, and invisibility 🔹 Why the heart (not just the mind) is key to liberation 🔹 The deeper purpose of the siddhis—and how they can distract us from truth If you’ve been craving a more mystical, nuanced understanding of meditation, consciousness, and freedom, this episode brings Book 3 of the Sutras to life. 💖 Curious about the Uplifted membership and want to know more?
