Pratyahara – Drawing Within &
Dharana – Single-Pointed Attention
5th & 6th Limbs of Raja Yoga: Pratyahara, which is drawing the attention within & Dharana, which is single pointed attention. Pratyahara brings the attention inward and uses the senses for exploring the interior landscape. Dharana is focused concentration on a single object, generally inside the mind or even the body space, which quiets the mind and stills the soul.

“Neel has been my yoga instructor since 2007. He has taught me the most fundamental yoga concepts and practices. This has deeply changed my life – changes that will stay with me forever. Besides the most visible benefits related to better quality of sleep and healthier eating habits, I have seen myself becoming a calmer, more balanced, peaceful and satisfied person. Every day, I enjoy exploring my spirituality and divine nature further. These evolutions would not have been possible without Neel’s dedication, patience and teachings. I am very grateful to him for being my yoga instructor and to life for having made our paths cross. May every person on a spiritual path find such a helpful source of inspiration and universal love.” ~ Cecile Poyet, Virginia
