Samyam – niyam (self-restraint) encompass many displines, prominent amongst which are purity of food, civility of behavior, goodwill, delligence, financial prudence, clearness, cooperation and amenability to regulations. Opposed to these virtues are many vices like indiscpline, undue indulgence in savour, indolence, procrastination, cruelty  irressponsilbility, wastage of resources and addictions which block the progress of a person.  All these evil traits which are apparently not interrelatecd are not in fact off-shoots of narrow selfishness and rackless irresponsible behavior only. The job of handling each of these evils independently and taking corrective measures is like making an attempt to weigh frog one by one. Just as a single dose of multispectrum drug is able to take care of a variety of ailments, broadening of outlook makes one clear about ones real identity, objectives and responsibilities as a human being with this enlightment all problems arising out of the evils vanish. As a matter of fact because of lack of wisdom man is possessed by base instincts which by themselves are too weak and disappear on enlightment like ghosts, which are capable of terrorising during darkness only.
