Yoga Alliance (Ryt 500) Certification: Ethical Guidelines
The organization Starlim India, Rishikesh inherits the ancient approach of yoga to inculcate and infuse the wisdom of yoga in each and every student of Yoga. To see this vision into practice the whole design of teaching and learning is framed in such a way that ethical sense becomes inevitable for all the members of Starlim India - Rishikesh
At Starlim India, Rishikesh, the very beginning of the day starts with the ancient Code of Conduct prescribed in the name of Dinacharya (the daily regimen). Everyday activities are arranged in the light of Ritucharya (seasonal Code of Conduct). Moreover, every step of behavior of the individual is visualized under the concept of Achar-rasayan (behavioral chemistry).
We see the whole spectrum of Yama (rules, how to act in the society) and Niyama (personal code and conducts) prescribed by Maharishi Patanjali need to be seen into practical, day to day behavioral terminology. If not hundred percent, at least whatever feasible that should be practiced sincerely and honestly. We feel this sense of transparency in the behavior of an individual is essential to be in the path of Yoga.
