Yoga of Dreams and Sleep | Yoga Sutra 1.38 | The Kriya Yoga Podcast IS24

In this episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast, we explore Yoga Sutra 1.38 and the practice of clarifying awareness through knowledge of dreams and sleep. Building on the previous Preparation for Samadhi teachings from Sutras 1.33–1.37, we examine how serenity, breath awareness, balanced prana, inner sensitivity, sorrowless luminosity, and freedom from attachment prepare the practitioner to remain aware through waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. This episode also offers practical guidance for gently cultivating awareness during naps, shavasana, and dream contemplation, helping us recognize the witnessing presence that remains steady through all changing states of experience.
