Yoga day

By Dr Prasad Phatak - As we approach international yog day June 21 st; it is time for all of us to know what exactly the meaning of Yog is. Is it just yogasans and pranayam or something more ?               It is all about a lifestyle that leads a path to happiness!

Power of thoughts [swami Vivekanand ]

Image
Swamiji says : Religion is the idea which raises the brute unto man and man unto God. It is the power of thinking that is difference between man and a machine \ animal \ brut. Religion will make a brut think and thus convert him to be a man . Most wicked person can thus change himself to be not just a man but also saint.As it happened to Valya koli who turned to be Valmiki Rushi who wrote Ramayan The most referred book in India.

TV creating wrong impressions on minds of children

Image
Today we find that the new TV sanskriti which has been telecasting too much of sex, violence and bad qualities like jealousy, anger, lust  and selfishness through films, serials, and adds is leaving very bad effect on the society; particularly our young ones.That has caused deep effects on their minds and they indulge in wrong acts.This has been even accepted by experts in USA. So what we have to do is find out some way to balance this by good thoughts of great people and the vast principles of advait tatwanyan in Hindu sanskruti which says God is better and permanent source of happiness rather than excessive lust for sex, money and food. Or for believers of other religion there must be some way to balance it which they could use too.

Shankarachary

Image
Shankarachary was a great sage born in Kerala India in 788. He was born at such a time when Hindu dharma was in great distress due to attacks by buddhism. He by his total advait siddhant and intellectual debates with many acharyas re established Hindu thought among people. He also defeated karm marg which included too much of yadnya yagadi kriyas to give Hindu dharma more modern form without losing its basic principles of vedas which say that world is one and it is full of chaitany tatw the bramha. His thoughts are important for mankind till today,when people in general have become so much materialistic consequently losing their happiness.Advait tatwanyan based on sacrifice balances this modern materialism with the supreme power and brings happiness to human life. To much of greed for sex money and eatable has created unhapiness to one individual as well as the whole society so achary guides in his own way and asks to control the lusts. सततच्या लैन्गिकतेने अथवा लैन्गिक विचाराने ...

Happiness

Image
Happiness is the goal of life for almost everybody of us. For that everybody does a lot. Really a lot of perspiring exercise day and night.Everybody gets some results.Less or more. But we never try to really evaluate our success regarding happiness, instead we keep on evaluating our performance, monitory profit and all.So I would like to appeal you to evaluate . Ask the question what am I doing for happiness round the clock, and whether I get that happiness out of it? I try to get more and more money so that I could buy all happiness through food, luxurious vehicles, luxurious chairs,beautiful wife or husband. Along with that I keep on thinking of food, sex and more luxuries all the while . Answer the question after deep thinking, Do I get permanent happiness through all this deed and thought or not? If your answer is 'yes' just carry on. And if it is 'no' then think again where does it go wrong and you will find some way or the other.

secret of religion

Image
The secret of religion lies not in theories but in practice. To be good and do good - that is the whole of religion : Swami Vivekanand Man should behave like a man with any other person and not denounce anybody is nothing but Humanity : Sant Dnyaneshwar Dharmasy tatwam nihitam guhayam means principals of religion lie in the heart of man and not any cave :? Many wrongly take it that it is very difficult to understand the religion as sages in forests and caves only can know it , is actually wrong. It lies in your heart only.All that has to be done is explore it yourself. Your helpful behavior to all is nothing but a virtuous act.

yam

This yam is differant from that yama. Rather this helps keep the other away! As stated earlier yam is first part of yoga. To obey yam you have certain things to do. these are ahinsa saty astey bramhachary aparigraha. First 2 have been picked up by mahatmaji as way of life [and disposed by his discapples!] ahinsa- non violence by action and mind saty-truthfulnes. some have even lost everything for truth.[raja harischandra has been example of mascari now] asteya no stealing. Corruption is also a way of stealing. bramhacharya does not mean no sex but controlled sex with your dharma permitted partner wife\husband. Gay can not be dharma permitted partner aparigraha no gifts to be accepted from anybody

Ashtang yoga

Ashtang yoga has 8 parts. It is meant for purification of mind. These are certain things that help to purify but it is a long process. One has to try again and again. But though you have not reached complete purification,the process also gives us happiness The 8 angas are [of yoga]- yam niyam asan pranayam pratyahar dhyan dharana samadhi
