 Namaste, welcome to the sixth session of the course, Yoga and Positive Psychology for Managing Career and Life. We are looking at yoga from the lens of positive psychology for last couple of sessions. And if we have a quick recap, we looked at different aspects of positivity and human potential from the yogic tradition. So, we looked at holistic life goals, diverse pathways, positive behavior, positive characteristics, positive experience, positive events, positive institutions and positive society. We in the last class had a discussion about sanskar and sanskar as interventions or positive events for the self-expression, for cultural and social integration. These are the events which has very clear moral purpose and also spiritual purpose behind these. So, 16 sanskars are more popular currently, but there can be different numbers found in the different texts and we had this discussion about it. We also looked at yajna as a positive event. We looked at pancha maha, bhut, pancha rin and how yajna is essentially an activity and engagement to sacrifice or to do something beyond the immediate, limited self. So, sacrifice is inevitable part of the any yajna. We looked at positive institutions as well in the last class and in the positive institution we specifically looked at marriage and patashala. Marriage is known as grahasth ashram in the Indian tradition and we looked at a couple of sutras given in the traditional text. One of them if we can recall was yatha vayu sam ashritya vartante sarva jantavah tatha grahastham ashritya vartante sarva ashrama as air sustains all beings. So, grahasth ashram, a married life takes care of all other forms of human lives or all other ashram, drahmacharya ashram, vanaprasth ashram and sannyas ashram. So, there is a clear role of married couples and there is a great role of marriage in the sustenance of the society as it is conceived in the yogic tradition. We also looked at patashala as positive institution and the importance of patashala, importance of education, importance of gyan is uncontestable in the yogic tradition. They say that vittam bandhur vayah karma vidyabhavati panjami etani manyasthhanani garyu yadattuttaram. That means, vidya is the first matter of honor, vidya must be honored first before with the meaning prosperity, relationship, action, etc. So, that tells about the importance of vidya and as a result of that there were many great institutions flourished in the Indian culture. We all know about it and we discussed these things in the last class. Today, we are going to look at very important aspect of a positive society. We cannot understand positive society particularly in the yogic tradition without understanding relationship of yoga and governance. If we look at the artifacts found, discovered in the harappa culture, we see some of the seals, some of the artifacts which are suggesting about the widely prevalent yogic practice in that culture. That is the claim and the elaboration of that claim in a fairly scientific manner is done by Deepika Kothariji and Omji Ramji in their film History of Yoga. The link of that is given in this slide. Precisely, we can look at three things. This seal is found and this particular picture is found in various artifacts in the harappa tradition. This artifact is suggesting a posture. It is depicting a posture which is very similar to Bhadrasana and we can check Bhadrasana is one of the most ancient asanas in the yogic tradition. Next artifact is of the priest as they say this is the artifact of the priest or one man. If we look at the circle which is prominently reflecting the center point between the eyebrows, if we look at the half closed eyes and calmness on the face of this man, this depicts the Shambhavi Mudra which is very popular mudra, very well known mudra in the yogic tradition. In fact, another picture of Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev teaches Shambhavi Mudra extensively and in his program of Inner Engineering, this mudra is being taught to millions of people. The terracotta figurines found in different parts, they also depict different yogic postures. So, there is a connection made between the yogic postures and the overall nature of the culture. We can see that this culture which we call Indus valley culture sustained and flourished in wide stretches from the north of the current India to western part of current India. We do not find any evidence of mass violence in that culture. So, it reflects the great orderly life and democratic governance prevalent in that culture. You can know more detail about this and more elaboration in this film, but the culture was in two sense a culture because it reflects very orderly town planning. We do not see much of difference in the living spaces of the different sections of society. We do not see any indication of the mass violence. We do not capture, we do not find many arsenals in this search. So, that suggests that this society was orderly society. It was cultured in two sense and yog perhaps was the foundation of that society. So, these things suggest that yog must be looked at from the perspective of governance as well and no surprise that Satya, Ahinsa, Asteya, Aparigraha, Brahmacharya, all these characteristics, positive features of human life and human potential are the basis of yog and probably these were also considered as morals and basis of the ancient culture of Indus valley tradition. And this was certainly was the foundation of the governance system of that culture.
