Philosophy is not about precepts alone

 Philosophy is not about precepts alone

But practice of precepts!


The Practicing Stoic

Ward Farnsworth


In yoga philosophy , Sage Patanjali says this:

अभ्यासवैराग्याभ्यां तन्निरोधः

These (Vrittis) are controlled by practice and non-attachment

Vrttis are the chatter (mental) that creates turbulence in the mind!

And they can only be controlled by practice and non-attachment! 


Philosophy is all about practice and not just sermons from the pulpit! 


Practice : repetition is the key!
