Dear list members,
I have two questions regarding possible parallels to the PÄÅ›upata understanding of yama and niyama regulations, as explained by Kauṇá¸inya in his *PañcÄrthabhÄá¹£ya*.
1. Are there other traditions which consider yama regulations to be permanent, and niyamas to be subject to change, depending on time, place, etc.? Is it a common understanding of the division between yama and niyama among philosophers of Yoga, or in other branches of Åšaivism?
2. Are there other traditions accepting ten yama regulations?
With best wishes,
