Vote using your Yoga Values
Here’s a real-life example of how Yoga Ethics show up in our everyday life.
Tuesday, March 5 is the Primary in North Carolina.
When you go VOTE, consider the following:
Ahimsa = Nonharm and Care.
· Who on the ballot is committed to not causing harm?
· Who on the ballot is committed to acting against violence?
Satya = Truth
· Who is committed to being truthful in their actions and their words?
· Who is committed to deep listening?
Asteya = Nonstealing and Generosity
· Who doesn’t steal?
· Who believes there is abundance in our country? Who believes there is enough for everyone?
Brahmacharya = Energy Management
· Who will spend their energy and the government’s energy on issues that matter to you?
· Who is committed to not participating in or contributing to overindulgence or excess?
Aparigraha = Letting go and non-attachment
· Who is committed to not being attached to being re-elected in the next election but instead of doing what is the right thing for our community, our state, our country, our world?
· Who is committed to letting go of doing things they same way they have always been done?
