Eight steps to Infinity

As the Buddhist philosophy has its 8 fold path to Nirvana, the Yogic philosophy has its own 8 steps. A (not extremely) different path, same destination.

According to Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, the yogic 8 limbs are:

Yama – Niyama – Asana – Pranayama – Pratyahara – Dharana – Dhyana – Samadhi

Let’s see them in details in the next few days.
