Yoga

noreply@blogger.com (Sophia Miller) — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 07:30:00 +0000

Yoga ("yoke", "unite", "control", also called "reborn") is in its broad context: a Hindu philosophy that teaches the mind, feel and body control , thereby union with God.

In a more mundane, Western concept of yoga is Hatha yoga to mean a branch of yoga (hatha yoga) which consists of a system of exercises for the body to obtain.

India defines yoga expert Jean Herbert also with two meanings are closely related. His definition is as follows:

"Yoga is the state in which man is yoked with the Divine is, that is connected with the Divine, as expressed in the word religion.

With a small version prints the word yoga is the state from which the 'visible man' is also linked to the 'real man', ie where man has regained his true nature and in accordance with lives.

The yoga technique, how it may be, is a discipline by which man tries to come to the state of yoga. "

The 6th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita (a passage from the Mahabharata, probably from the 3rd century BC.) Is for many the most important text on yoga. In this chapter the hero-warrior Arjuna by his charioteer - who has revealed himself to him as the god Krishna - urged the royal path of yoga to go.

If the standard work on classical yoga, however the Yogasoetra of Patanjali, which elevated levels of yoga technique and, although he mainly dealt with the practice, it gave a metaphysical basis. Yoga, which is theoretically similar to the Samkhya oriented, was now his own 'philosophical orientation' or a darshana.

From the work of Srila Vyasdeva is said that we would allow for the physical condition to leave and go into eternal spiritual existence together with the soul and personality. The work of Srila Vyasadeva is unique in the sense that the reader of his books with information on the personal aspects and qualities of the Lord, which he can rise to the, according to the Vedas, the highest achievement in the practice of spiritual activities.

Buddha is often the Mahayogi, the great Yogi called. Maya teaches an ascending series of meditations and contemplations, the samadhi, the mystical, visionary ecstasy, in which one Nirvana (without forest, that of vana (forest) and is nir (without) experience).

He also wrote Paramahansa Yogananda in Autobiography of a Yogi about the connectedness of the residents to dust Mahavatar Babaji who together worked stoffeloze Jesus Christ to the conversion of the divine plan for the earth in this age. Their mission would be out there, to inspire nations wars, racism, religious sectarianism and materialism to give.

Where Krishna is known as gopi-vandana ', the darling of His servants, who are always somewhere in the forest is located, is the impersonal glow (also called brahma-jyoti), a derivative of awareness regarding the Absolute Person.

The religious aspects of yoga in the form since the seventies in the resulting dialogue between Christian theology and India Studies is an important theme.

The Yogasoetra of Patanjali describe the raja yoga, hatha yoga which is the basis. Traditionally, it keeps four main system of yoga:

Jnana yoga: The yoga of inquiry along the road of the intellect, continued beyond the usual mental limitation

Bhakti yoga: The yoga of love and devotion to the divine made either through a representation of the divine through an object or a person in whom one sees the divine

raja yoga: the yoga of inward concentration

Karma yoga: The yoga of action without attachment and without self-interest. This yoga is more or less oriented to the divine

The eight branches (ashtanga) of raja yoga are described in the second pada of the Yogasoetra's. It concerns the following levels:

Yama refers to the five abstentions

Ahimsa: nonviolence

Satya: truth

Asteya: not steal

Brahmacharya: chastity

Aparigraha: renounce possessions

Niyama refers to the five precepts

Shaucha: physical purity

Santosha: source of the supreme joy

Tapas: burning zeal

Svadhyaya: introspection

Ishvarapranidhana: surrender to the worship of Ishvara

Asana: physical exercise

Pranayama: breathing

Pratyahara: withdrawal of the senses

Dharana: concentration

Dhyana: meditation

Samadhi: complete surrender / integration

ultimate goal is emancipation kaivalia

In the west there is only a significant attention to the practice of yoga since the latter half of the twentieth century. Usually this involves the relaxation of hatha yoga, which are perceived as beneficial by a hectic life in built-up tension. The main form of physical yoga is Hatha yoga that was first documented more than was in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika in 15th century AD. In the West, Yoga is seen as conducive to health and is often practiced without religious intent. Hatha yoga consists largely of asanas (postures) and pranayama (breathing techniques). Hatha yoga is the basis for many other, more sophisticated types of physical yoga.

Ashtanga vinyasa yoga and power yoga are also similar physical types of yoga, each with different body positions in yoga series to follow. This is achieved in this Yogas a flow mentioned. This yoga forms require more strength, endurance and balance. Other types of yoga that go back to the basics of hatha yoga: Iyengar Yoga, Sivananda Yoga, Bikram Yoga, Anusara Yoga and Yoga teachings of Indra Devi. Furthermore, Pilates and the Five Tibetans kinship with hatha yoga.

Natya Yoga is the path of bhakti yoga and hatha yoga. This type of yoga is performed dancing and is therefore sometimes genoemd.Chakra yoga dance yoga is a spiritual approach to the energy fields in the body, called chakras. According to this philosophy every human body has seven so-called energetic physical wheels. These wheels would spin at a rapid pace and the life energy through the body let go.

The yoga nidra (sleep of the yogis') is a spiritual preparation for the practice of yoga and yoga method itself. Tantras are mystical spells that are part of the tantra yoga, tantric yoga also. The mantra yoga is also based mystical spells and sound vibrations, called mantras.

Vishna yoga postures that are used, inter alia within the kum nye [source?]. Here they assume that when a person completely out of balance, he must carry vishna exercises effortlessly. The physical body is seen as a sounding board for the energetic body and if there is a blockade is housed, than the physical body can not exercise it. Often used as vishna's exam times for students in training.

Kundalini yoga is based on generating the psychic power, also called the divine power (serpent power: kundalini) in the body to awaken and take off and so realize the redemption. This method requires control of the auto-extending body processes.

Ashtanga Secondary Series

noreply@blogger.com (Sophia Miller) — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 11:35:00 +0000

When we talk about Ashtanga Yoga, we get the picture of a ‘eight-limbed’ yoga technique in our mind. This popular yoga form, which has been practiced all over by people, stresses improvement of the breathing and mind through asanas. It is a power yoga practiced in three series, viz. primary, secondary and advanced. .

The secondary series of Ashtanga yoga which is also known as Nadi Shodana, is a nervous system purification series. Through this series, the nervous system is cleansed and the energy is channeled to every part of the body. This series starts after the full completion of the primary Ashtanga series. The series is characterized by sun salutations (Surya namaskar), standing and sitting postures.

Like the Ashtanga yoga series, there is the Yoga Bikram propagated by Bikram Choudhury which is a form of hot yoga striving to develop the body with the inner heat. This yoga form helps in improving overall circulation of blood, controlling mind and reducing stress. Another yoga form Moksha Yoga is also a type of yoga practiced in a warm environment which strives at development of the body, mind and the soul. This yoga practiced through asanas in a heated room helps in detoxifying the toxins from the body and reducing stress.

The Ashtanga secondary yoga classes continue for around 35 minutes. One can also practice this yoga form with the help of yoga videos at home. Nowadays, you can also teach your baby yoga with the help of these videos where they show postures for the small child. However, for comfortable practice of Ashtanga Yoga, it is important for having the right wear. Yoga pants are a must necessary as it makes one comfortable during yoga.

He who binds the breath, binds the mind

noreply@blogger.com (Sophia Miller) — Thu, 13 May 2010 06:47:00 +0000

He who binds the breath, binds the mind. – Svatmarama, Hatha Yoga Pradipika

Yoga works primarily with the energy in the body, through the science of pranayama, or energy-control. Prana means also ‘breath.’ Yoga teaches how, through breath-control, to still the mind and attain higher states of awareness. The higher teachings of yoga take one beyond techniques, and show the yogi, or yoga practitioner, how to direct his concentration in such a way as not only to harmonize human with divine consciousness, but to merge his consciousness in the Infinite. – Paramahansa Yogananda

Right Here, Right Now: Eating Mindfully and Applying Atha to Your Practice – Melina Meza

noreply@blogger.com (Sophia Miller) — Thu, 06 May 2010 12:42:00 +0000

I’ve been deeply inspired in my daily life by the very first sutra in the classic text called Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The arrangement in which the sutras are placed is related to their significance, so the very first word in the first yoga sutra is central to understanding what Westerners call “yoga.” The whole sutra is atha yoga anusasanam. Atha is translated as now, also referred to as the moment-to-moment transition. This simple word, atha, echoes the basic wisdom often forgotten in today’s society, that in order to feel whole and connected, you must be present. Right here, right now. But, where do we spend most of our life? Somewhere in between the past and future.
I once heard a riddle that asked, “If you had a treasure to hide, where would you hide it?” The answer is, “in the present moment.” What would happen if we started weaving this wisdom from the Yoga Sutra into our daily life and eating? Would our health improve? I believe it would. This first step is perhaps the most important step on this journey because it brings your attention to what you are doing in the moment, no matter what you are doing. How can you ever understand or feel the benefit of a well prepared meal, restorative or vigorous yoga practice, healthy relationships, parenting, working, or whatever you do in life, if you are always distracted with emails and text messaging or if you are busy fantasizing about some time other than right now?
One translation of the word “mindfulness” means to pay attention or take care in every thing you do. Mindfulness and atha have a lot in common, they both remind us that now is the prime time to pay attention to life and take nothing for granted, they both graciously steer the waxing and waning mind towards one goal, one task versus many. After all, can your energy really go more than one place at a time? Mindfulness or atha can be used as a “mantra” to be repeated throughout the day in various activities such as yoga, meditation, walking, cooking, paying the bills, or listening to a friend. Repeating this mantra throughout your day will help remind you to stay present and awake, right here and now. What would it be like to wake up to each moment’s sensual offerings and accept that moment as enough?
Mindful eating
What if eating became a part of your meditation practice? Whether you eat three square meals a day or numerous smaller meals, eating food is something every human must do to survive. To maintain healthy tissues and organs, it’s essential to eat the right foods everyday. Because we all need to eat so regularly, it’s a great place to consider sequencing in mindfulness and atha into your daily routine. Enjoy how your food tastes, smells, how well it digests, and how much you need to satisfy your hunger.
In the western culture, people are not fully conscious of the fact that they are eating; instead we are busy driving, typing at the computer, watching the TV or a movie, reading the paper or discussing politics or the latest Facebook events while hanging out with friends. Each of these scenarios requires a certain amount of energy output–energy that is pulled away from the digestive and metabolic functions occurring within. There is a classic saying, “Where your mind goes, your energy will follow.” So, why not focus on eating when eating, to prepare your digestive organs to process the nutrients?
If we were to apply mindfulness to eating, we would start by choosing a special, clean place to eat each meal, free of clutter and distractions. I believe it is valuable to choose a specific comfortable seat just for eating (like you do for meditation) other than your couch, desk, bed, or car because it promotes conscious eating. This also prevents overeating. Consider the classic conditioned behavior patterns described in Pavlov’s experiment. His research proves just how easily you can train yourself to get hungry every time you approach your desk, couch, or car, if that is where you most commonly eat. Conscious, mindful eating promotes efficient digestion and metabolism, so you’ll have more energy at the end of the day, week, and year to do your life’s work. When you take the same seat over and over again to eat, you’ll remember that eating is a ritual for nourishment rather than a reward or comfort tool.
By eating in a quiet seat, you also give your body the opportunity to stop vibrating from the day, calm the sense organs, indulge in a few deep breaths, and drop into a moment of appreciation for the delicious food you are about to consume. The food you eat, after all, will soon become you, so it would be wise to be attentive to your new guests and pray for a speedy, harmonious transformation in the walls of your GI tract.

Deepak Chopra Contends Patent on Yoga Expired :)

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 04 May 2010 12:22:00 +0000

Hi:) Or did a patent on yoga ever exist? It certainly didn't take long for Deepak Chopra to provide his own rebuttal of Aseem Shukla's lament on the disconnect between the practice of yoga today and its supposed Hindu roots. Here's the beginning of Mr. Chopra's counter argument:

First, yoga is a spiritual discipline in India, and always has been. The aim of the practice is liberation. When liberation occurs, the yogi is freed from the religious trappings that enclose Yoga. Those trappings have always been incidental to the deeper aim of enlightenment.

Secondly, yoga did not originate in Hinduism as Prof. Shukla claims. Perhaps he has a fundamentalist agenda in mind, but he must know very well that the rise of Hinduism as a religion came centuries after the foundation of yoga in consciousness and consciousness alone. Religious rites and the worship of gods has always been seen as being in service to a higher cause, knowing the self.

Chopra's bottom-line: Rather than an exclusive club for only those who practice the Hindu faith, yoga is "a 'spiritual discipline' that is open to anyone of any faith."

Reasons For Practicing Ashtanga Yoga :)

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 03 May 2010 07:19:00 +0000

Here are some other reasons for practicing Ashtanga Yoga. I love you :)

If you travel for work then the practice is portable, goes with you, nobody needs to tell you what to do, you "know the routine"

The Primary Series which is the first series of postures you learn is called "Yoga Chikitsa", or "therapy" and it is the series that restores the body to complete health, it is healing in motion.

You only add postures when you are ready to add more

The Mysore style does not have a "fix time to start" if you practice at a studio, the practice is your own and you start and finish when you can (this is really liberating!), and teachers correct you individually

Preparation For Perfect Meditation, Relaxation and Happiness

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 09:03:00 +0000

The first 4 external requirements of ultimate and endless happiness, yoga, ashtanga, perfect meditation samadhi and nirvana are; 1. Yama (moral codes), 2. Niyama (self-purification and study), 3. Asana (posture), 4. Pranayama (breath control).

Yama includes Ahimsa, Satya, Asteya, Brahmacharya, Aparigraha. Ahimsa is the main yama. Ahimsa is to refrain from injury, refrain from causing pain to any creature in thought, word or deed at all times. In Mahabharata it is stated “How can you expect compassion from a meat-eater”. As compassion is the foundation of Nirvana, please take a moment to think about it. The entire natural, green, eco-friendly movements attracting trillions of dollars of investment is a good sign to observe that mankind is starting to understand Ahimsa in a larger scale.

Satya is being truthful in word and thought all the time. Asteya mans avoidance of stealing, not coveting, not hoarding, not obstructing other people's desires in life. Brahmacharya means continence, celibate when single and faithful when married. In yoga, it is disciplining the use of sexual energy. In Patanjali's Yoga Sutras it is one of the 5 Yamas and it causes unbounded energy or vitality. Aparigraha is non-possessiveness.

Niyama includes Shaucha (purity), Santosha (contentment), Tapas (austerity), Svadhyaya (self-study and study of spiritual scriptures) and Ishvarapranidhana (self-surrender to divinity).

Asana means posture and pranayama means breath control.

These requirements mentioned above (yama, niyama, asana and pranayama) are the external requiremenst we need to achieve in order to attain self-realization and hence nirvana and ultimate happiness. The inner requirements are Pratyahara (sense control), Dharana (concentration), Dhyana (meditation), Samadhi (contemplation) follow the external requirements and i will try to share detailed explaination of these in my next article.
I wish you all a perfect day and life full of endless happiness :)
