Episode 199: The Four Paths of Yoga

Yoga, the sister science of Ayurveda manifests itself as four major paths. Patanjali, the Indian sage who is believed to have authored the Yoga Sutras, derived the four paths of Yoga for further enlightenment of people.

These four paths are like the branches of a tree with the roots deeply embedded in our inner self.  Colette describes these four paths, which are:

  1. Bhakti Yoga

  2. Karma Yoga

  3. Rāja Yoga

  4. Jñāna Yoga

Connecting with our true nature lies by connecting to these internal roots rather than searching for it outside of ourselves. Ayurveda and the four paths of Yoga help us navigate this journey to self-realization or to our true nature.
