Authentic Yoga Tradition

It has been a beautiful experience in Riga on the first day of my visit. Taras- my student and Yoga aspirant from Ukraine took me to visit orthodox Christian Church. entering into the church was thrilling and stilling experience . I was absorbed into images of Jesus and St Peter there. every image there was awakening to the story of Jesus. when we were  coming out of the church, I would call him a young man ( though old) met us at the gate of the church and introduced himself as a professor of music from Belgium who also worked at Petersburg, Russia. we hugged each other and left the church.

we were waking into the streets of Riga , specially the old city. we  found the Professor hugging me from behind and requested for tea together. We found a Black magic Restaurant and entered inside and sat there. it was traditional restaurant . The waiter explained how they serve coffee with alcohol. Professor told here to serve coffee without any alcohol in it. Professor is very experienced and explained how the words – Religion came from religare meaning self disocvery is close to the word Yoga that also means Self discovery.

I said -Yes as long as religion do not impose any Do’s and Don’t , both word convey the same meaning. However, Yoga moves one step further as it says – you can believe in god or not , still you can practice yoga and become a good person by changing the consciousness. you can also use image, name or word related to God for transcending the mind to enter into spiritual consciousness.

Yoga demands intense aspiration to enter into Love, Energy, Awareness and Peace at all the time. this can only come when we transcend the mind . and when we transcend the mind, we also transcend all the images , concepts about God  created into our mind. That is the only way to discover our self -

I thanked Taras who came all the way from Ukraine to be with me and Mihail who made all arrangements for Seminar, workshop and a Talk in Riga – a beautiful city

My dear friends

I feel deep sense of gratitude to everyone here who accepted the teachings of Authentic Yoga Tradition.

On the occasion of Thanks Giving Day, I offer my best wishes and continued Peace, Prosperity and Success in life.

Authentic Yoga Says – moving from falsehood to truth is the journey of man

Falsehood is what our anxiety, stress, conflicts and sufferings are-

Further yoga declares that falsehood is our superficial nature, therefore, can be easily dropped, dissolved and destroyed from our life by moving consciously to truth

And truth is immutable peace, eternal love, highest wisdom (non dual consciousness) and harmony and happiness.

Let everyone move consciously into Truth – that is our destiny

I am always grateful to everyone who attended my sessions on Authentic Yoga, Meditation, Spiritual counseling, and teachings from ancient texts. I am also grateful to my mentor who guided me, taught me the authentic yoga tradition for over 27 years without any expectations.

I thank you all and America who accepted me and teachings of my Himalayan mentors over three years.

I wish to continue to render my services to offer ways and practices aims at Human Excellence, Health, Harmony, Happiness; Peace, Prosperity and Success.
