Before the World: The Essential System of Sankhya-Yoga Metaphysics - Preview

Listen to a lecture which says that to understand the practices of Classical Yoga and the traditions that build upon them, it's necessary to consider how they construct the universe, what they think we perceive when we see the world, and what it means to live and act according to their metaphysics. Every yoga tradition contends with the model of the world put forward by Sankhya-Yoga's formal understandings. We'll explain this system as well as why it's still important for us as modern yogis to consider seriously.
