Patanjali describes the 5 modifications (citta vritti) of the mind as correct understanding (knowledge), false understanding, imagination, sleep, and memory.
He then classifies correct understanding or valid knowledge in to 3 categories.
Sensory, philosophy, and science.
A purified, one pointed, disciplined, and meditative mind can then use these three sources of correct valid knowledge to help us live successfully in this world.
However, to a confused mind these sources are as useless as false information.
Through the practice of ashtanga we create one pointedness by drishti, and breath. When we focus on one point and listen only to our breathing we can no longer wander with our thoughts aimlessly. ๐งโโ๏ธ

Bramacharya. Non-indulgent or celibacy.
When we as western people think of celibacy, we apply it to abstaining from sex or being chaste... and however true this meaning is, it also has deeper meaning.
Anything we do in excess can be seen as indulgent. Multiple sexual partners, dependence of substances, overstimulation of the senses, excess food (meaning beyond what our needs to sustain nutrients and life are) leaving the water running, or leaving lights on when not in the room, these are all examples of wasteful practices.
When we are capable of identifying areas of excess in our lives we can maybe begin to manage and practice our truth and awareness to assist us in recognizing our many ways of over indulgent.
It does not mean we have to be a renunciate and give up all or everything, but more creating an awareness on how we can firstly understand why this (wasteful practice) has become indulgent. Analyze with a true awareness on whether we need this much or this thing at all and how we can scale back become more chaste or remove these said wasteful practices. Creating a sense of conservation. Physical tangible energy or personal energy.
