Answer 2

Self-discipline in ashtanga yoga:

Explanation:

• Niyama in Yoga Sutras is the second stage in Ashtanga Yoga, the eight-fold limbs of Yoga.
• ‘Niyama’ deals mostly with our internal self-discipline other than external ethical behavior.
• The yoga tradition has given excessive importance to the development of a balanced personality before taking up higher practices of yoga.  
• Niyamas are aimed at creating inner strength and self-discipline in order to take up subsequent higher yogic practices.
• Niyamas are inner restraints and either observances or obligations.

Niyamas are as follows:

• Saucha (purity or cleanliness)
• Santosa (contentment or happiness)
• Tapas (austerity or discipline)
• Svadhyaya (self-study)
• Ishwara Pranidhana (surrender to God).
