The phrase yogas chitta vritti nirodha comes from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and is often translated as "Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind." This foundational concept highlights that the true purpose of yoga is not just physical flexibility or strength, but the stilling of mental activity. When the constant chatter of thoughts and emotions is quieted, we gain clarity, inner peace, and direct experience of our true self. Practicing yoga with this understanding brings deeper transformation beyond the mat.
