 Dear Children of this Holy Nation -

1.

In Sanskrit, the primary definition of the term Yoga is the state of union with the Divine or the experience of oneness with the great Reality. Yoga, therefore, represents the experience of Truth, the consciousness of Reality, the union with the Divine. There are also secondary meanings of the term Yoga.

Yoga is also a set of scientifically evolved and intelligently formulated practical techniques enabling man to shed himself of all the impurities imposed upon him by the nature of his body, mind and senses, and aiding him to concentrate his thoughts entirely upon the Supreme.

Thus Yoga means anything that man may do to purify his lower nature, to restrain his senses, to direct his mind towards God, to come into a deep interior level of worship of the Divine and finally to realise his eternal oneness with the Divine Consciousness.

The application of yoga is universal. It may be applied within the religious framework. Yet it clearly transcends religion. It is supra-religious, far beyond any dogma or doctrine. The extent and duration of its applicability is commensurate with the whole of humanity for all time. I shall attempt to show you the significance that Yoga holds for everyone in this great and eventful twentieth century.

First and foremost, Yoga is not mere acrobatics. Some people suppose that Yoga is primarily concerned with the manipulation of the body into various queer positions, standing on the head, for instance, or twisting about the spine, or assuming any of the numerous odd poses which are demonstrated in the text-books on Yoga.

These techniques are correctly employed in one distinct type of Yoga practice, but they do not form an integral part of the most essential type. Physical posture serve at best as an auxiliary, or a minor form of Yoga.

To be continued ..


NOTE -

1. UNIVERSITY DEGREES, Phds, ARE USELESS, WHEN THE RIGHT EDUCATION OF THE ATMA ( SOUL ) TO GROW AWARENESS OF THE PRINCIPLES IN THIS SERIES OF BLOG IS REFLECTING, NO ONE CAN ASSURE LASTING HUMAN UNITY AND TRUE UNITY!

2.MATERIALISM AND STATUS OF SUPER POWER, CANNOT ENSURE LASTING HUMAN UNITY AND TRUE UNITY!!

3. THIS TRUTH IS WIDELY SEEN IN THE WORLD, WHERE EACH ONE DO NOT WANT UNITY, ENJOY DISTURBANCES, CREATING DISTURBANCES, IN MANY WAYS OF THEIR CHOICE!!!
