        Like this informing about inevitability to pursue all the five YUM {first five Commandments to make our behavior optimally scheduled for betterment of comprehensive matters concerning the stability and progress of the society as a whole}, these obligations are taught along with other five commandments concerning personal matters, these are called NIYAM without caring for these ones progress of the society even the existence and stability of a society of people cannot continue any more. And what to say about having progress concerning spirituality, even a person may become unable to maintain life normally, having food peacefully, having enough sleep and continuing living too. These commandments concerning individual life are such which used to be followed essentially by everyone. These commandments concerning individual are such which do make the life really happy and contended. If someone does not follow these ones properly then mainly he himself shall be suffering a lot and making his life of a lower order. And because he lives in a society and used to be a member of the same, this shall also be harming the society indirectly, because such person would not become a useful member of that society of people.

    First commandment concerning the individual—NIYAM-- is about the cleanliness {both external and internal cleanliness}, which is very much essential because it is the main basis of good health and the unhealthy individual proves to be a burden upon his family and the society. Mind used to be very closely related with the body. If the body is unclean and weak then the mind also can never remain powerful and truthful, after which what to say about realization of self-soul and Supreme Being even leading the life peacefully and respectfully would become impossible.     

   Second commandment concerning the individual—NIYAM-- is about continuing contended.

    NON-ACCEPTANCE OF THE SURPLUS/EXCESS MATERIALS: - This also is an essential requirement for progress and well being of the society that every one of the society should be given suitable opportunity so as to carry on their lives well. At present desires and requirements of everyone have increased to such an extent that they want to accumulate all kinds of desirable stuffs of utility, concerning life in more and more quantity without caring for other’s need. This mis-behavioral propensity results into the scarceness in availability of essential commodities in apposite quantities to others even after making lot of efforts for earning their livelihood and getting helpless they are forced to live in lower standard. To get impede this impairment to the society of people it is necessary to follow the doctrine of non-acceptance of the surplus/excess quantity beyond the actual requirements of things. This is not objectionable that a man go on utilizing, consuming and enjoying while go on keeping possession upon his wealth but he should also be concerned about other people also that they get their appropriate share of victuals and  other necessary stuffs and they also can live on happily. Through this voluntary vow of non-acceptance of the surplus materials collection of excess quantity of things can be hindered.

YUM contd. …

       RENOUNCE STEALING: - After that necessity for making the basis of society strong and to main peacefulness is to renounce stealing at all so that each and every one can earn and maintain his right upon the legitimate outcome of his industrious exertions. If the attitude of snatching and plundering ownership do get into the hearts of people then what to say about progress in lives even passing their life peacefully would become impossible. At that time majority of people would be thinking stealing, grabbing and adopting every foul means to be the righteous way of earning, which will definitely destroy the society as well as wipe off their name and fame too from the history of mankind sooner or later. Therefore doctrine to renounce stealing has been imparted.

    CELIBACY: - Society of people used to get aggregated through the families, which get built-up through the basic relation of man and woman. It is extremely necessary that no external interference does take place into this basic relation of man and woman so that clarity of family keeps on going well. The societies in which sanctity of the basic relation of man and woman is not well protected and the same used to be spoiled through deception or might of any kind, those get degraded and get spoiled sooner or later, there is no doubt about it. Calling such societies to be cultured or advanced is a matter of pity or laughing to be full of a cruel satire. For maintaining the privileges of a family popularity of celibacy is palpable. Without impediment of improper life style sanctity of family cannot be protected.

       In fact the first five commandments to make our behavior optimally scheduled for betterment of comprehensive matters which ones are termed-- ‘YUM’—are those fundamental mandatory obligations which do make people well established and any deficiency in pursuing YUM does make even the well established people disturbed sooner or later.

     NON-VOILANCE: - The primary essential need for the human being is have such an environment that is really suitable to remain alive and to sustain own existence. Principle of non-violence is connected with this primary need. Each and every individual of the people can remain confident to such an extent as much as they do follow the YUM of non-violence.

      TRUTH: - Next primary essential need for the human being is to have mutual trust and to fulfill assertion solemnly. Whole of the social behaviors and the dealings do go on finely operative.  If people do not remain certain that the assurances prearranged amongst each other according to certain social norm then whole of the social system would get ruined within very few days. Principle of truth is connected with this very essential requirement to maintain basic fabric of the society for its subsistence. People do look very well developed to the extent as much as they used to follow this YUM of truth.

     The importance of yoga used to be owing to these commandments only, which are meant to make our behavior optimally scheduled for betterment regarding comprehensive matters as well as the personal matters. Practicing yoga only by way of holding body postures and breathing exercises, without pursuing these commandments, would have been simply surplus physical exercises and the holding of concept and performing meditation etc., would have been a useless affectedness. Knowledgeable ones used to have this opinion about whole of the yoga way to be having the epitome of these Ten Commandments which do concern both for comprehensive matters as well as personal matters. What can be more indicative for the betterment of civilization of universe as a whole in comparison to the indications of non-violence, truth, non-stealing the property of others, celibacy and non-acceptance of surplus/excess materials of the actual requirement—nothing. Similarly what can be more indicative for the betterment of an individual in comparison to the indication of cleanliness {both external and internal}, contentment and endurance through penance while behaving with others, studying the scriptures, having full faith upon Supreme Being—nothing. The practicing one who has followed these commandments in his life would definitely be achieving his ultimate goal of getting perfection in yoga there is no doubt about this. And those ones who used to ignore these commandments while practicing the yoga only through holding body postures and carrying out breathing exercises—as most of the yoga practitioners usually do—then they would not be achieving the requisite goal of yoga.

     A man can talk a lot praising own self to show off others but the splendid success cannot show up in his life without carrying out deeds having faith on God. Eminent saint Patanjali says that even the high objective of yoga can be achieved speedily with having the shelter of God. So it would not be incredulous about ordinary achievements at all in any way.

Importance of Ten Commandments {social as well as personal};-   

       According to Patanjali yoga philosophy trans-meditation has been considered to be the ultimate goal of yoga way and the main ways and means to get the same have been deliberated to be the having concept and meditation. Ordinary people used to consider that holding body postures and breathing exercises only are the main ways and means. Whereas mention of holding body postures, carrying out breathing exercises, holding concept, performing meditation etc., to be the ways and means has been done only in two Sanskrit couplets but mention of Ten Commandments {social as well as personal} has been done in more than twenty Sanskrit couplets as the important ways and means and the importance of yoga way used to be only for these ten commandments {social and personal}.

           Keeping this fact in view while going through practicing yoga further ahead the best and paramount path used to be to keep full faith up on God as has been told, which may lead up to the stage of trans-meditation. Several paths have been told to attain the goal of Kaivalya {absolute understanding} by way of trans-meditation such as—by way of impressions of practicing yoga way carried along since the previous births, having faith and trust up on God, worshiping God among highest wisdom, occasion of having intense asceticism. But the most speedy and effective means is having yearning for God that means to adopt shelter of God with devotion. The practicing one who does adopt the path of offering all his doings to God considering his own power to be scanty and erratic also let the anxiety and consequence of successfulness or unsuccessfulness up on God, shall achieve the goal speedily in comparison to other practicing ones, there is no doubt about this. Power of theism is biggest in the world and fruitful. The same used to be main basis of spiritual progress and the same can impart the inspiration for performing virtuous doings. The life of person devoid of theism used to stroll about astray lacking the objective like a helmless boat, he can neither become useful for own self nor for others.

                               Whatever massive or minuscule materials or the happenings of past, future or present time periods, used to be known to several persons may be in lesser or more magnitude. Yogis do come to know the same one to quite an extent through getting the intellect concentrate and restraining especially in some particular subject matter. Although they can come to know the facts to such an extent that the same may look like the miracles yet certainly their knowledge still remain incomplete. A junior yogi does have such knowledge to more extent in comparison to a senior yogi whereas a settled yogi does have much more then these ones yet they cannot be termed as the all-knowing one. God used to be the all-knower with limitless extent that means no one else can have knowledge more than Him. Therefore from this point of view it is reprehensible to have doubt His regulation and justice and it is our duty with conviction to consider the same worthy of respect understanding the same to be advantageous to us.

                       It is the tenet of psychology that whatever ideal a person does keep before him, as he worship or have emotion he himself goes on getting formed in similar manner. Emotion and concentration of intellect do have a great power. This saying is exact not only for yoga philosophy but all wise ones and knowledgeable ones also, which do say that a person can show such a great doings, which generally do seem to be impossible to do through the force of resolution and  by way of the power of thoughtful consideration.  Therefore the person who shall worship faithfully and having full confidence considering Him to be worthy of devotion, he shall definitely get free from predicaments, devoid of bondages of deeds and shall go on getting more and more advanced continually.

        God or Supreme Soul does not hold emotion of desires at all so He does not carry out any doing. Because of not performing deeds He does not have to undergo the outcome of any deed and does not come under the bondage of destiny. He has never got correlated with such apprehensions at all. Although individual self-soul also does get completely detached from the predicaments and bondage of doings after getting free from  life bondage by virtue of their virtuous deeds, yet previously they used to remain attached with such defects {predicaments and bondage of doings} earlier to their freeness from life bondage. But God or Supreme Soul used to never get attached with even a hint of defect. Therefore although God used to be the ancestor forefather also yet He used to be uncommon ancestor forefather. There is another specialty of God—that God does own all-knowing superiority in full magnitude.

   Ascertainment of theism:-

             The biggest peculiarity of yoga philosophy that appears very clearly is that it advises its followers to keep on full faith and confidence on God and it first of all educates them to be a theist. Although allegedly every philosophy used to accept the existence of God or some super power, but those philosophies tell this fact in such a way that it becomes very difficult to understand the fact by those ones who got educated with little or ordinary knowledge. Whereas the eminent Saint Patanjali has explained the identity of God, worshiping Him and the consequence of the same in such an effective manner that even someone having average intelligence gets convinced beyond doubt. Patanjali says that God is not different from the appearance of self-soul but the living being who has come up to the world as a human being used to remain entangled within the five predicaments, namely false-knowledge, egotism, mental affection, hatred and fear of death whereas God used to be absolutely away from all of such defects.

        Saliency of Patanjali Yoga Philosophy:-    

                  This philosophy has originated since very old days. Elements and the doctrines of yoga and the science of Braham {Eternal Sprit} are also there in Vedas and Upanishads too. In fact original source of philosophies indeed used to be Upanishads. Evidently Sankhya and Vedanta were innovated on the basis of Vedas and Upanishads.  Bhagavad-Gita which is the gist of spiritual scriptures also used to be called the abstract of Upanishads. This is correct that the ideas of philosophies are expressly well established and rationale and used to be spread here and there in the form of own perception had by various Sages, but in view of thorough analysis and its conclusion both the Yoga and the science of Eternal Sprit used not be at much variance and several ancient Upanishads also do contain passably the description of several procedures-regulations concerning yoga way. Although it could not yet be decided satisfactorily that, which philosophy used to be the oldest one out of the six original philosophies but the supremacy of yoga philosophy has been accepted by everyone. The reputation and the popularity of yoga philosophy, which used to be prevailing amongst normally educated people, that does not had by any other philosophy. In fact ordinarily people do not know even the name of any other philosophy. Out these ones even after ample popularity and publicity Vedanta philosophy used to be considered as impractical doctrine according to the common people. They articulate that it is easy to proclaim ‘I am He’ or to pronounce out loud that entire world is the false stratagem of delusion but it is not possible for human body holder to behave according to these sayings. People do believe more upon the certainty of yoga philosophy due to its practicability and consider whosoever would carry out more practice of the same one shall be getting more helpful effect or the advantage accordingly

Apart from these ones there are several other yoga ways which do come into knowledge while studying various books and articles. In fact all the religious sects and doctrines have told their peculiar methodology of worshiping which used to be very much logical because of the fact that the real purport of yoga is the peculiar methodology to pursue the way to have the view of God. This view of God used to be expected, as far as possible, clearly perceivable through senses or through some other ways that makes the devotee to get convinced beyond doubt. Each and every one of all the religious sects and doctrines would definitely be following some of appropriate methodology. But there seems no doubt at all that the original source of all these ones used to be the yoga philosophy that was brought-about by the eminent Saint Patanjali.

 Perusing various techniques of yoga:-

            In case enumeration of yoga techniques is carried out, which do prevail at present on the basis of several narrations which are mentioned in various books concerning the same one and various types of techniques of yoga according to the followers of other religious faiths also then we would find number of these yogic techniques more than a hundred. Readers of those scriptures would find such name of yoga which possibly do have elements of yoga ways only for namesake and which may look to be somewhat thoughtless but when we consider this explanation of the word ‘yoga’ that---“the path which is appropriate for the unison of living being and Supreme Being used to be the yoga way”, then we cannot call all these techniques to be inappropriate because yoga way is the way for practicing to concentrate  the attitude of intellect or disposition of mind through  making the same temperate. If some ordinary person who is not very much educated but have very slight knowledge about the essential facts of life, is asked what he knows regarding yoga then his reply would be that yoga consists of physical exercises and breathing exercises only. He will not be mentioning other parts of yoga which are very much essential to accomplish the progress in developing self-soul sufficiently to have the bliss and the ultimate goal to be achieved.

Similarly those ones who do not possess much of mental development and who cannot conceive the principles of Vedanta, which do have precise points of unavoidable understanding, because of the poor ingenuity they have been asked to follow the methodology of restraining their bodies and wishful intellect to quite an extent through physical activities. Those ones who are unable to make their wishful intellect undisturbed through the way of limitation and having resolute concept, have been prescribed to follow the yoga of chanting some divine word or yoga of exploring divine rhythmic sound so that they can easily make their intellect concentrated up on one subject matter.                               

          Keeping such a perspective in view emergence of various branches and procedures of yoga way and divulging various procedures meant for practicing those ones has not been such a concern that may cause impertinence of yoga way. But somewhat on the contrary it should be considered equally good as there used to be several methods of worshiping God in vogue like worshiping God through His idol, carrying out  pilgrimage, roving around the place or the idol of deity, chanting sacred sayings or words and practicing meditation etc. Just in the same way various branches and methodologies of yoga should be considered or these should be regarded as like the steps or the stages of great yoga or perfect yoga. The practicing one who thinks own self unable to performing practicing some part of Patanjali Yoga Philosophy can resume the practicing yoga way appropriately after developing his bodily and mental strength through carrying out persevere-yoga, yoga of muttering prayers or yoga of muttering mantra.

No, not at all, all those approaches of yoga ways have been discovered considering the difference of places & time periods and the aptitude to comprehend by the practicing ones. As for example Yoga through power of some apparent powerful natural systems has been sermon for those ones whose mental attitude used to be inclined towards experiencing worldly pleasures or they were belonging to places or tribes having uncommon customs of meat-eating, consuming wine and having similar crude habits. So with a view to train those ones to follow behavior of self-restraint within a limited field of life and guiding them to lead a spiritual life were imparted precept to follow yoga through the power of some apparent powerful natural systems.

                Like this goal of such believers used to achieve the doctrine of un-dual oneness through bodily power by way of getting these powers developed extraordinarily. Other ones used to increase will power by of making the wishful intellect immaculate and sufficiently restraint. According to such believers the rein of physical powers and incidents of all kinds used to be fully within the powers of wishful intellect or the thoughtful intellect. Eternal truth can be viewed by way of these ones clearly perceivable through sense organs within a short period. Another class of believers used to say that body and wishful intellect both of these are perishable substances. No information about perishable substance can be had through none of these ones. Supreme substance cannot be had through practicing physical exercises and holding bodily postures. Supreme substance cannot be gained as well simply through keeping the wishful intellect aloof from experiencing worldly pleasures. Also practicing yoga through obstinate means at the most can get the realization of Eternal spirit endowed with divine qualities but such a realization used to be confined with the limitation of place and time, that mean the achievement used to be only the emotional one at the most, so salvation cannot be had through partial achievement of Eternal spirit. Real salvation, according to Vedanta Philosophy is to have a clear perception of self-soul through which the doctrine ‘I am He’ used to get realized clearly perceivable through sense organs to make the practicing one resolute beyond doubt. Like this the only way for having salvation is to have doubtless and clear perception of Eternal Spirit, which used to be Supreme Consciousness aloof from the confinement of place & time and the same is possible exactly through the yoga of fostering mental power to understand.

                  Vedanta philosophy has also explored solitary un-dual eternal spirit {Supreme Being} having all-pervading consciousness and has preached practicing ones with tenet of—‘you are He’ and ‘the self is He’ and imparted the precept to them to attain that great goal through the perusal of knowledge, but the aforesaid knowledge and the tenets used to leftover merely a dictum or the saying without a clear perception and most of Vedanta followers used to look being smeared in stratagem of worldly deception like other people. Yoga way is truly such a way through which truthfulness of Vedic doctrine can get authentically proved and the  sameness of living beings and Supreme Being can be formulated as a postulate trough own perception. For this it is very necessary to pursue procedural ways and means of yoga and pursuing the practice.

Various branches and procedures of Yoga:-

       Many methods have been proclaimed for practicing yoga as per yoga philosophy imparted by eminent saint Patanjali. Different methods have been innovated to suit diversity of condition and the requirements according to different inclinations giving more importance to one means of support. Some ones who used to know the body to be more important and more obvious gave specific attention towards Neti, Dhoti, Vasti, Asana, Mudra, Tratak and Pranayam. According to them who consider body to be more apparent and think the creation of this world used to be the frolic of five basic physical constituents, therefore these ones can be conquered by means of own physical body which also used to be constituted by these ones.

         This very gist is the real advantage of yoga. Discordance or the feel of alienation used to be the only cause of all fear, disgust and grief which are being felt in the world by the human beings. Struggle, rivalry or competition can take place only in between two different matters or persons. But when the human being will begin to feel tangibly only one substance soul throughout the entire world by way of wiping away the feel of isolation, then he cannot get afraid from anyone nor can hate anyone, nor can get angry with anyone. Only such person can enjoy the factual peacefulness and happiness after getting fearlessness and uncontested state. This doctrine has been preached by all great personages and saints of all religions. Indian sages have also declared that whole of matters of created manifestation used to be like belonging to own self-since ancient time, yet it would be most difficult to get this declaration perceived fully and to get the same fully followed in practice. Only the practice of yoga is such a way through which a person can perceive this fact clearly and he can stroll-about in this world becoming really free from adversary.

In this way we do come to know that meditational power of the wishful intellect used to be much beyond the power of sense organs and whole of the physical powers. If observed by way of thoughtful consideration then these physical powers, which get manifested through the power of wishful intellect, are put into use also through the same power of wishful intellect. So if we make this power of wishful intellect introvert with a view to explore self-soul then the ultimate secret may also come to our understanding as such. Then we can come to know the meaning of this saying of Vedas and other scriptures that “Whatever does get looked in the world and whatever does come to our understanding by way of our experience all that used to come out of one and the same source of the Super Existence Power”. Rightly at that time we also may understand that we too are a part and parcel of the same Super Existence Power and we also possess those powers in our self-soul, which usually said to exist in Supreme Being. The same phenomenon is also mentioned in Shrimad-Bhavad-Geeta in verse 6/19 “The person having attained yoga used to perceive dwelling of self-soul in all the matters as such he does get the understanding about tangible oneness of entire world. So he becomes just and impartial”

          As we all do know that will power and the power of concept are the biggest power in the world, so whatever great deeds performed by the renowned ones or the astounding activity that has taken place for the benefit of mankind have got accomplished through such paramount powers. This is not necessary that all such personages have practiced the ways and means which have been mentioned in the yoga philosophy. Several ones do possess these powers since their birth and so many do achieve these ones through living in peculiar circumstances too. Eminent saint Patanjali himself has mentioned about Videha yogis {yogis having the intellect which used to be free from worldly attachments} and Prakartilaya yogis {yogis having resolute concept beyond manifested nature}  in his yoga philosophy, and said such yogis do own these yogic powers naturally since birth by means of the impressions from their previous births. Man used to get habituated to concentrate with complete and unruffled brain power solely upon one and the same target and as a result of that he comes to know concerned substantial tangible knowledge and can utilize his power perfectly well and can easily accomplish his assignment in best way within shortest period of time. Yoga makes the spiritual and clandestine brain powers awakened. The person who does have complete control over own-self through yogic pursuit can control and govern the entire nature and the entire activities of physical world too according to his meaning or wishful yearnings. A renowned knowledgeable one of modern science has said that “the resolute intellect of a yogi can be compared with a light beam of an electrical searchlight, because when such yogi casts the concentrated and unilateral rays of his wishful intellect upon a particular matter, may that be somewhat coarse or fine one, each and every grain of that one gets illuminated and intrinsic knowledge does get apparent in front of him in its true form. On the other hand sight of a common man cannot reach up to such depth of matters because of the diversified power of his brain, which used to be like scattered light rays. But if the disposition of mind is made to get steady upon intrinsic facts of the matter or made to stay over the facts of spiritual world then the absolute understanding about the spirit of the world or complete knowledge of universal spirit can be had”.
