(my)niyama is to keep thinking about You with the heart of perfection ! Notes: 1. niyama is principles and motto. (This is one of the eight steps in aShTAnga yoga after yama - discipline). While yama is common to all, niyama are specifically the ones taken up by the devotees as an individual rule. One could see in the life of 63 devotees different services were taken up by different devotees as niyama and they stood stubborn in ensuring that service even if it appeared to cost their life. ===== --------------------------- Visit Shaivism Home Page at http://www.shaivam.org --------------------------- Try FREE Mail - the world's greatest free email! / Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
