Yoga Perspectives, Helpful Qualities

Lesson 19: Be a Patriot

Lesson 19:  Be a patriot, a true patriot. Set a good example of what America means for generations to come. They will need your example. Patriotism means not cheating on your taxes or cheating veterans or admiring foreign dictators. Patriotism involves serving your own country. A patriot wants his or her nation to live up to its ideals, asks us to be our best selves, and wishes his or her nation well. A true patriot fights for democracy for all.

How to Succeed

As you may know, we do not charge for our courses. All Yoga World content is free and available to you with our blessings. However, we do have a simple, but important request that’s key to the transformations necessary to succeed on the path.

We ask you to commit two hours a week to selfless service. This service can be anything you choose ranging from helping a family member or neighbor to volunteering at a nonprofit organization.

I Commit to Serve

This commitment is solely between you and your inner self.

Why the Commitment?
