Insights - A side benefit of the ancient practice of yoga meditation.





"Insight is a gift
that comes to those
that hunger after
truth."

Yoga 

 texts tell us that the 'self' must take on a gross physical body as a direct consequence of coming to this world. The self is covered not only by the gross physical body but also by a subtle body which is made up of a more subtle type of energy imperceptible to earth eyes.

The self, soul, spiritual spark wanders about the world trying to enjoy, trying to be happy, trying to keep some order in their life but is thwarted at every turn. Why...? Because it is not our natural position to have dominion, or to be in full control. More often than not the illusory energy has firm control over the misguided and forgetful soul.

For many lifetimes the 'self' can exist in a deluded state, looking for happiness, peace, love. After experiencing total frustration and angst such a person may begin to enquire, what am I doing here, what is the point, what should I be doing and how should I be living my life. At this time due to the causeless mercy and grace of the Supreme, a person may recieve the gift of insight and experience many blessings. If such a soul is the most fortunate of all they will come into contact or meet and be able to hear from a true yoga master. 

At this point it is up to the person to use their free will and decide what to do, they may change their life, or they may not. The individual has the freedom to choose. And has this freedom eternally.

The fact is we are already loved but we need to learn how to love (in the truest sense) again. We have been given all the tools we need in the form of a most joyful, simple method that will help us reconnect spiritually. This is a very ancient scientific based practice, recommended by great yoga masters past and present.

If you would like to learn how to practice yoga meditation and experience for yourself the life changing effects that may take place as a result, be sure to leave a comment along with your details and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

  2. Hi Mesha,
    Thankyou for taking the time to comment.
    I am happy you like our blog. The inspirational sayings are very uplifting arn't they. The world and our daily lives can be so uninspiring, so it's good to experience the feeling of being lifted up and out of what is often times a less than uplifting existence.

    The divine teachings tell us that it is vital for human beings to be nourished and nurtured spiritually because we are in fact spiritual in essence.

    Unfortunately we spend most of our awake time polishing the cage, in other words tending to the physical body and it's requirements only. Totally unaware of the fact that we are spiritual sparks and therefore in need of spiritual sustenance. As the wise saying in the Bible goes "Man cannot live by bread alone."

    Yoga meditation is all about reconnecting, refocusing and taking care of - nurturing and nourishing the spirit.

    Without us the spirit spark, the body would be incapable of functioning.

    I am happy that you are meditating already. Feel welcome to drop by if you do come to Palm beach it would be nice to meet you.

    You could then join in with one of our other classes, or attend a yoga meditation class to learn more.

    Om Shanti Om
