In this episode, Kino explores the powerful yogic concept of *k\u1e63\u0101nti*\u2014forbearance, patience, and compassionate endurance\u2014through scriptural sources including the Bhagavad G\u012bt\u0101, the Bodhicary\u0101vat\u0101ra, and the Yoga Sutras. We talk about how yogic activism is possible\u2014and necessary. With examples from Arjuna\u2019s awakening on the battlefield, the lives of the Buddha, Gandhi, and Martin Luther King Jr., we look at how spiritual practice and social action go hand in hand. You\u2019ll learn the difference between ego-driven anger and compassionate anger, how to check your motives, and why nonviolent resistance is rooted in yogic ethics. Topics include: - The meaning of *k\u1e63\u0101nti* and *titik\u1e63\u0101* in Sanskrit - How Arjuna learned to fight with clarity, not hatred - Personal vs. collective dharma - Why checking our motive is a yogic act - Yogic guidelines for right action in a world on fire Takeaway: We can speak up for justice, stand with others in trouble, and act from love\u2014not reactivity. True *k\u1e63\u0101nti* is not passivity. It is spiritual courage. Practice LIVE with me exclusively on Omstars! Start your journey today with a 7-day trial at omstars.com.
