yoga


Yoga

yoga starts from discipleship. The moment we desire strongly to follow the path of yoga we must accept that we are going to become a disciple. The path of yoga leads us to progress in the aspects of physical and mental health besides spiritual awakening. On this path we have to be alert every moment of our life in cleaning the body, mind, thoughts and deeds. For this we have to dispel our ego, the ignorance and dross in our mind.
There are two types of disciples one a monk or synnyasin and other a householder.For a monk total surrender and dedication to the service of guru is the only way to become a disciple. In case of householder the purpose of the life which has been obtained along with family, duties, environment etc. are stepping stones to discipleship. whatever is happening every moment in our life a disciple should try discipline and adjust himself. Guru means light, illumination. Therefore when we become disciple Guru is already within us but we can`t see it, so we project the Guru onto somebody who becomes our external Guru.
our consciousness at present is in total darkness. This consciousness is the deepest part of our spiritual personality. the guru awakens this consciousness by the help of a Mantra. The mind can illuminate all that is in the material world but we can not see our subtler plane of existence because That is enveloped by darkness known as ignorance or Maya. The deeper plane can be illuminated by Guru Mantra. Guru gives you a special Mantra that can transform the consciousness.

Guru

Our life has two sides . One material and second spiritual. We all know material life very well which includes name, fame, wealth, husband, wife, children etc. But we are not that much familiar with our spiritual life. This aspect of life is concerned with the cause and purpose of our birth as human being. To realise this we must have a capable guide which is known as GURU. For learning walking, speaking and eating our mother is guru. For learning languages, physics an maths our teacher is guru. all these are called Vidya Guru. One who guides to realise the spirit within us which is the primordial energy or element that enables us to realise the reason and source of creation of the cosmos is the spiritual guru.
In the life of every one a time comes when the internal forces of the mind compels him to think and evaluate his own existence as a human being.This point is the starting point of the process of spiritual awakening.then one starts to search his guru.He will get one according to his level of his spiritual development. Once one gets his guru he will change his attitude, behaviour and actions in the positive direction.

Hari Om

Hari Om
From today I am going to meet my friends and well wishers throuh this blog. I would like to reflect on the subjects related to the purpose of our life. whatever we do in life we have some purpose behind it. whereever we go we have some purpose behind it. Similarly there must be some purpose behind our life. we have to find out that purpose. that will be our final goal of our life.
Once we fix the goal of our life then we can proceed on a definite path. what would be goal of our life? health, wealth, status, satisfaction? Of course all these will be necessary for a common man. But we all experience that these things are not in our control. Therefore we have to search for a method by which we will be happy in all the situations of our life. The spiritual science will guide to discover the main principle. Once we realize that principle we will achieve eternal peace in our life. yoga is the starting point of that path which is known as spirituality.
Hari Om Tat Sat
