Satya: Trusting in Truth

Satya, truthfulness, is the second of the five yamas or restraints of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. Sutra 36 of book two roughly translates as: for one established in truthfulness, all action bears fruit. This sutra tells us that we can trust the results of everything we do in truth. This trust empowers us to skillfully surrender to the now moment.
