Namaste all.

I have suffered a serious mental illness since I was about 14 o 15 years old.

The "psico-medicines"(of course prescribed by professionals people) and the practice of Krishna Consciuosness still help me very much in calm my mind.

Some years ago Sarabhanga(who no longer come to HDF) told me to practice with patience and determination the yama and niyama.

I noticed that this really help.

Now my question:in order to calm my mind should I focus only on 5 yama and 5 niyama described in Patanjali's Yoga Sutra or on all 10 yama and 10 niyama that you can see at http://veda.wikidot.com/yama-niyama ?

Please note that I don't want to do anything ante-thetical or incompatible with my chosen path: gaudiya-vaishnavism.

Regards,
Orlando.
