Episode 16: The Art of Receptivity

This week's podcast dives into the yama (abstinence) of asteya (non-stealing). "To one established in non-stealing, all wealth comes." Yoga Sutras 2:37 Non-stealing is the art of cultivating a gracious, generous, abundance-based attitude towards life and others. The opposite of stealing/taking is receiving/giving. Rather than stealing and taking with an attitude of entitlement, we can receive and give with an attitude of gratitude and an aim to elevate all through sharing our own gifts and fully receiving other's gifts as well. When we attune ourselves to an attitude of abundance we become capable of realizing we don't need to take from others on the physical or energetic level to achieve success and abundance. For when we take from others it only leads to destruction of relationships, our reputation, and eventually even our own dreams dissolve in the illusion of lack and seperation from others. What we would want or envy in others is actually a potential within ourselves that we are searching for externally rather than cultivating it from inside out. Once we align ourselves to the infinite abunance and potential that dwells innately within each and every one of us, we naturally receive the gifts the Universe has to offer us (as opposed to needing to take what we feel is owed to us). Through our ability to graciously receive and live from an abundance based mentality, we naturally magnetize everything we desire to us, for the way we look at the world is the way the world looks to us. Special outro music at the end of the podcast is called 'Trust' (feat. Mitch Brady) and is produced by DJ Karishtan. It is available for download via iTunes and Spotify.
