Book excerpt: The practice of yoga is an art and science dedicated to creating union between body, mind and spirit. Its objective is to assist the practitioner in using the breath and body to foster an awareness of ourselves as individualized beings intimately connected to the unified whole of creation. In short it is about making balance and creating equanimity so as to live in peace, good health and harmony with the greater whole. This art of right living was perfected and practiced in India thousands of years ago and the foundations of yoga philosophy were written down in The Yoga Sutra of Patanjali, approximately 200 AD. This sacred text describes the inner workings of the mind and provides an eight-step blueprint for controlling its restlessness so as to enjoying lasting peace.

The practices for developing this desired state of balance, purity, wisdom, and peacefulness of mind are known collectively as "yoga." "Yoga" means "yoke" or "union" - referring to union with the true Self, the goal described in the Upanishads. The sages distinguished four basic types of people and developed practices that are particularly suitable for each type, in order that each man can attain the desired union with the Self. For rational people, there is the path of Knowledge. For meditative people, there is the path of Self-Knowledge. For naturally active people, there is the path of Selfless Action.

Download or read book The Complete Book of Yoga written by Swami Vivekananda and published by . This book was released on 2023-02-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The four types of yoga are covered in length in the current book, along with its philosophy, psychology, and practise techniques. It provides a comparison of the four yogas, outlining their similarities and distinctions. By destroying the ego, karma yoga, also known as the yoga of selfless action, aims to address the issue of ignorance. We are tethered to this world by attachment because of the ego, which was born out of ignorance. The practise of bhakti yoga involves inward purification. Bhakti-central yoga's thesis is that love is the most fundamental human emotion. Love is cosmocentric and divinely inspired in its most pure form. Raja-yoga ignites the flame of awareness of the self within in order to reach the Divine.
Download or read book Raj Yoga written by Dr. Lake Singh and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every mortal creature is fraught with the fear of death. Even man thinks he shall disappear into the abyss of nothingness. But the Godheads all beg to differ: Krishna, Jesus, Buddha et all. They unequivocally declared death as the staircase to heaven. Raj yoga though confers upon man an even higher state of being: the consummate path of moksha or oneness with the Creator, which is what this sui generis or unprecedented text is all about. WE ARE ON THE CUSP OF A SPIRITUAL BREAKTHROUGH HERE Evidently, the Western world is familiar with only hatha yoga: a series of dexterous postures and breathing exercises designed to promote mens sana in corpore sano—a sound mind in a healthy body. However, there are other more laudable streams of yoga. Among them is raj or the kingly mega yoga, which espouses not only how one may win the heavens, but also be in sync and harmony with the Creator at the exigency or verge of death. In medical parlance, we see a rather striking similarity between birth and death. In birth, scientists have determined that two specialized germ cells fuse to give rise to life. As it happens at the beginning of life, why not at the end also—a process whereby the micro and macro souls precipitously merge and become one? In that case then, what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his own soul? The author introduces here testimonials, evidences and plausible yogic techniques that a devout practitioner may employ not only to save his soul but also transform fearsome death to an enlivened spiritual experience.
