Tapas, the fire of striving
When should we do those hard spiritual disciplines that we admire (and secretly fear), the hardships endured by yogis, saints and swamis of memory and legend? Are we ready for the fire of tapas, the tenth niyama? How to get the most of these extraordinary efforts? Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami explains, with his unsurpassed clarity, how and when to use tapas for your spiritual benefit.
