A Message to All Sincere Yoga Students.
The objective of yoga practice is to wake up each morning and want
with all your heart for the following thoughts to arise first thing:
" Lord, may You always be happy
May whatever you wish always come true
Please let me always be there, for You "
In the case of a married woman, her sincere desire should be directed
to her husband. For everyone else you need to ask your teacher whom
you should pray to.
There are four aspects to yoga practice :
-
Developing a tranquil mind, see my
article "Quietness in Your Life"
-
Tapas, developing purity of your body
in mind through everything you do, see "tapas"
-
Svadhyaya, studying the scriptures,
specifically the Bhagavad-Gita and Ramayana, see my
Loving Heart Centre articles on how to get started with
these.
-
Ishvara Pranidhana, doing all your
actions for God. To start with this you need to resolve
each day to help your husband [for a married woman]
OR
nice people you encounter in your life [for a married
man] to become happy. Single people needed in the first
instance to focus on finding a nice marital partner and
making them happy.
All who follow this simple path will
succeed in their true life mission, which for all of us
is Bhakti, constant permanent loving remembrance of God.
May all sincere students of yoga get this
message.
