8 Timeless Teachings for Spiritual Growth

The 

Yoga Gospel

The Yoga Gospel is for those ready to embody ancient wisdom in their daily reality - not just understand it intellectually, but live it so completely that it becomes who you are.

FROM HABIT TO FREEDOM

The Sacred Work
of the
8 Limbs

Here's the thing about being human - we're creatures of habit.
And those habits? They carve deep grooves in our minds, bodies and hearts, creating what yogis call samskaras - basically, the mental patterns that keep us stuck on repeat. 

 

Samskara in action:

Reaching for your phone when you're anxious
Snapping at your partner when you're stressed
Falling into that same old story about why you're not enough

HERE IS WHAT I HAVE LEARNED

The same fire that can burn us can also free us.

You know that moment when you find yourself reaching for your phone when you're anxious, or snapping at your partner when you're stressed, or falling into that same old story about why you're not enough? That's a samskara in action.

There's this beautiful Sanskrit word, tapasya, which means "to burn" - but not in a destructive way. It's the conscious choice to put our patterns into the sacred fire of awareness and let them be transformed. It's taking that addictive energy - whether it's to control, to please, to numb, to perform - and turning it into fuel for our liberation.

 

Instead of being at the mercy of our impulses, we learn to pause. To breathe. To choose differently.

The 8 limbs of yoga aren't just philosophy to study - they're a way of life to embody.

In The Yoga Gospel, we don't just learn about Ahimsa (non-violence), we spend an entire week discovering where you're being violent with yourself and others. 

 

Yoga, not as poses on a mat, but as a complete spiritual practice that transforms how you move through the world.

How are the 8 Limbs different from the 10 Commandments?

While commandments demand obedience, the 8 limbs invite you into relationship - with your body, your breath, and your sacred energy .
Aparigraha vs. "Thou Shall Not Covet"

The commandment says don't want your neighbor's stuff. Aparigraha asks: Are you grasping so tightly to how things "should" be that you're missing what's actually here? Are you hoarding energy, time, or love out of fear there isn't enough?

Brahmacharya vs. "Thou Shall Not Commit Adultery"

Pratyahara vs. "Remember the Sabbath"

The commandment says be faithful to your spouse asks: Are you being faithful to your own energy? Are you leaking life force through endless scrolling, toxic relationships, and saying yes when your soul screams no?

Pratyahara is withdrawal of the 5 senses. Unplug from the noise. Your nervous system is begging for Sabbath. Not exclusive to Sunday. Rest isn't lazy—it's sacred pause. When you need it. Holy stillness.

"LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF" becomes a lived practice, not just a Sunday teaching.
