Asteya / Nonstealing necklace. the third Yama in Patanjali's yoga sutras.

¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨°ºॐº°¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨

Sanskrit : asteyapratishthayam sarvaratnopasthanam || 2.37 ||

English: On being firmly established in non-stealing all wealth comes to the Yogi.

Asteya - Nonstealing

Don’t steal, the Yoga Sutra says, and all good things will come to you. Because asteya is commonly translated to mean refraining from taking anything that is not freely offered, the first things most people think of are money, clothes, food, and other tangible stuff. But there’s more to asteya than what is found on the material plane.

There are lots of things you can steal. You can steal someone’s time if you are late. You can steal someone’s energy.
You can steal someone’s happiness. You can steal someone else’s ideas if you represent them as your own.

To invite asteya into your life, consider what you truly need and refrain from letting your desires persuade you to take more. Have fair trade be your mantra—not only in your shopping habits but also in all of your day-to-day interactions. Respect the time and energy of others, give credit where credit is due, and see if you can help build up the world’s kindness reserves by giving more than you take.



Asteya is mentioned throughout many Indian texts, including the Sutras, the Mahabarata (which the Bhagavad Gita is part of), the Upanishads, and the Vedas. Gandhi also saw how important the practice of ‘non-stealing’ was and considered it one of his ’11 Vows’, in which he expanded beyond the physical act of stealing – importantly – that ‘mankind’s greed and craving for artificial needs are also stealing’.

Swami Sivananda also focused on the fact that ‘desire or want is the cause for stealing’. So, as we discover more about this Yama, it may be more helpful to look at why we might consider stealing in the first place, rather than refraining from stealing in itself. Much like in Indian medicine, we’ll look at the root cause of suffering, rather than the Western approach of considering only a temporary cure….
