The Pillars of Ahimsa and Satya

Ferrini’s teachings, rooted in classic yoga, emphasize the principles of Ahimsa (non-violence) and Satya (truthfulness). These principles are presented as essential for rebuilding a world grappling with conflict and misinformation. These principles are increasingly relevant in today’s world, where global peace is threatened by ongoing conflicts and the spread of misinformation. According to the Global Peace Index, global peacefulness has deteriorated in recent years, highlighting the urgent need for initiatives promoting non-violence and truthfulness.

As in classic yoga,at the basis of his teachings and the life that inspires his numerous disciples ther are the principles of Ahimsa (non -violence) and Satya (truthfulness),two pillars that can resurrect our world battered by lies and war.
