My heartfelt greetings to all for Christmas and New Year

My greetings, obedience, and respect to all my guides, mentors, teachers, who inspired me to tread the path of authentic yoga tradition.My greetings and love to all my friends, students, people who helped me, guided me   and showed me the ways to manifest what little I know from 6000 years old yoga tradition.

Celebration in life or celebration of life———-

You may celebrate an event in life but the joy fades away after some time. But if you celebrate the entire life, the joy that comes is eternal and never fades, rather increases as days passes. This celebration of life is authentic yoga tradition. This eternal joy comes by self-discovery leading to Human Excellence i.e. freedom and self-realization.

I wish you all an awakening and Peace, Prosperity and Success

The word “yoga” is the most misunderstood word in the world today. I am fortunate to have my formal education in physiology, psychology, and chemistry along with informal, master disciple learning of yoga under the feet of great masters in Himalayas and in other parts of India.  While staying in America, I encounter everyday people saying “yoga is physical and meditation is mental” as if yoga and meditation are different and separate from each other. It is something if people say me “oh I see your body and mind are separate”. Yoga is 6000 years old, the tradition continued with over 3000 masters and 1000 texts. Glimpse of history of yoga shows a fascinating story, how knowledge and practices of yoga evolved over thousands of years.

I am a humble student of yoga over 33 years now. I have not found a single definition and text of yoga, where, yoga had been defined as physical practice of postures or breathing practices. reading and understanding literatures of yoga and understanding the traditions makes very clear that yoga is basically a science of consciousness of which physical practice may or may not be part of the practitioner routine or daily practice. The history, facts and teachings of great masters reveals one fundamental truth that all master declare that –“there is a state of consciousness beyond matter, body, life and mind who rules all them. That this consciousness is known as self. That self is of the nature of truth, peace, happiness, love and pure awareness. That this self is one and the same that dwells within, in every being on the earth. That discovery of the self is aim of yoga. That discovery of the self brings an end to all sufferings of life. That this self-discovery allows the body, life and mind to move in a direction of our intense aspiration and manifests creatively to realize that aspiration or desire in life.”

The above facts prove that yoga is a consciousness based science and art of knowing oneself or discovering oneself. Any person can discover this self with regular practice. It is the understanding of the practice and aspiration to move into higher planes of the consciousness that can help even sports persons in raising their stamina, strength, endurance and skills that is required. I am not undermining the role of physical practices in yoga but helping to assert the importance of physical yoga if it is guided by the consciousness. That is what master’s talk about physical consciousness. There is pure physicality in the body and there is physical consciousness. science of sports always consider the physicality of the body while authentic yoga explores and moves into physical consciousness to improve the functioning’s and raise the skills required in a sport person.

With every increasing awareness of alternative systems of medicine, energy healing – the world is moving towards realizing what yoga declared thousands of years ago that consciousness is the ultimate reality of the universe. This consciousness extends itself and becomes mind, life, body and matter. When we explore the consciousness behind the veils of the mind, life, body and the matter; body and mind lives up to its optimum level of functioning’s where skills, creativity, strength , stamina , endurance works naturally brings excellence in life.

My dear friends and aspirants of Peace, Love and wisdom

The life is in flux – moving all the time. Mind in our life moves with seeking, wanting and desiring. It appears as if seeking gives momentum to life but also the suffering. What we want, we do not get. What we get, we do not like it. What we like, it does not remain forever.

What we want and like in this world outside, it does not bring peace and happiness. They all move us to pleasure followed by the pain. This is a movement of unconsciousness in life. We leave our life to evolve unconsciously. When life moves into unconsciousness, it breeds ignorance and ignorance leads us to problems and sufferings.

Unconscious living, ignorance and falsehood are great sins in life that forces the life to create a hurricane of problems and sufferings.

Great masters and teachers in India, over 6000 years ago, declared that if life is lived consciously from moment to moment, it starts moving to peace, love, happiness and wisdom.

Further authentic yoga tradition says – peace, love, happiness and wisdom are our essential nature. We can prevent them manifesting in our life but cannot destroy them. We do everything in life that prevents peace and happiness to manifest in life, though unconsciously. That why we move into anger, stress, agitation, anxiety and other issues.

Yoga says

Move from falsehood to truth

Life is a moment, therefore, always at all the time in life, move from falsehood to the truth

What is falsehood – all our negative traits and expressions including anxiety, stress, problems and sufferings in life? Become aware if they are present in your life and explore from where they entered in your life. It is unconscious living

What is truth – yoga says it is truth consciousness that manifests in peace, love, happiness and wisdom.

There is another meaning of falsehood – that which appears true but not true. Body appears true but changes at all the time and one day it falls away.

Mind appears true but it will drop one day

Ego appears true but it will fall one day

Anxiety appears true but it disappears after the event is over.

But

Truth is eternal, therefore, peace and happiness are also eternal that dwells within us.

To discover them within is the destiny of an individual. The moment you decide and choose to discover the peace, happiness, love and wisdom within you, falsehood starts disappearing from your life.

My dear Marty, the biggest disease is falsehood and not the one has been suffering from. Once we dispel this falsehood, the peace and happiness take over our life. There is birth of new consciousness within, that dares and drops even the all sufferings of the body. This new consciousness guides the life towards peace and happiness. This new awakened consciousness even takes all challenges of the body and transforms it.

This awakened consciousness makes life eternal. As long as life is attached to pleasures and identifies with the body, mind and ego; sufferings continue. Let peace and happiness within, take over the life here and now and transform your life into one eternal that vibrates in one and all.

Be in peace and keep smiling
