Patanjali's Yoga Sutras (Ancient Yogic Scriptures
from the 2nd Century BCE) discusses the qualities of the mind and how we
can influence it. As mentioned before Yoga is defined as “stilling the changes
of the mind” in the Yoga Sutras. Why is that important to us? According to the
Yogic philosophy our actions are determined through either “correct understanding/perception”(Vidya)
or “incorrect understanding/perception”(Avidya).
