Love .. True love according to Yoga Philosophy

Love:

Everyone in the whole entire world, or should I say 3 worlds, or all of the universes are interested in LOVE..!  It is a much talked about subject, a hot topic so to speak.

The soul by nature is loving, wants to recieve as well as give love.

The ancient teachings of Yoga Philosophy share this: God is the one we should love.

Unfortunately some people in this world believe that 'they' or each of us is God. I can see how one might mistakenly come to this conclusion. I can also see how most people in this world do not see God as being lovable. This is only due to a poor fund of knowledge.

Yoga Philosophy teaches that God is in fact the most lovable. He is not like the dictator that some see him as, arbitrarily tossing people into the firey pits of eternal damnation.

He is in fact our best friend, always with us through thick and thin. Our ever well-wisher and constant companion.

These are the teaching of Vedic Philosophy.

God is God with a capital G. We the minute living entities on the other hand are god with a small g ... meaning that we are part and parcel of the Supreme, but in minute quantity. Quantitatively we are little iddy biddy tiny parts and parcels of the Supreme whole. We are not God, we are not equal to God and we can never be God.

Yoga Meditation Help Save The Trees

5 amazing virtues of trees

  

• The net cooling effect of single, young healthy tree is equivalent to 10 room-sized air conditioners, running for 20 hours a day. 10 air conditioners, a single tree.

•  A tree planted today on the west side of your house will result in a 3% energy savings in the five years time, 12% savings in fifteen years.

• A single stand of trees reduces particulate pollution 9-13%, with the amount of dust reaching the ground beneath those trees 27-42%, versus in an open area.

• If you have trees on your property near your home it accounts for 10-23% of your home value.

• In urban areas, assuming the cost of planting and maintaining a tree for three years at $250-600, it will return $90,000 in direct benefits over its lifetime (apart from beautification, etc.).

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

"Insight is a gift

that comes to those

that hunger after

truth." 

- Anon




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.

Cat Guides Blind Dog

After Terfel, an eight-year-old chocolate Labrador retriever in North Wales, U.K., developed cataracts last year, he began to bump into walls and furniture. 

Soon enough, the once-energetic dog was spending most of his time in his dog bed, unable to find his way around.

On a whim, Terfel’s owner Judy Godfrey-Brown let a stray cat, whom she named Pwditat (pronounced Puddy-tat), into her home. The feline made a beeline for the blind dog and began using its paws and head to herd Terfel into the garden. Now the unlikely friends sleep together, and Pwditat helps Terfel find his way everywhere.

How sweet :)

Holistic yoga meditation4221 studio palm beach qld - A poem titled 'In his footsteps'.

"When someone does a kindness

it always seems to me, 

that's the way God in heaven 

would like us all to be... 

for when we bring some pleasure 

to another human heart, 

we have followed in his footsteps and we've had a little part 

in serving him who loves us - 

for I am very sure it's true 

that in serving those around us 

we serve and please him, too."

- Helen Steiner Rice

Yoga meditation studio palm beach 4221 would like to share with you this - Ancient Truth

"The soul is atomic in size and can be perceived by perfect intelligence. This atomic soul is floating in the five kinds of air (prana, apana, vyana, samana and udana), is situated within the heart, and spreads its influence all over the body of the embodied living entities.  When the soul is purified from the contamination of the five kinds of material air, its spiritual influence is exhibited."

- Mundaka Upanisad 3:1:9

Holistic yoga meditation 4221 - shares this from the Bible

 
"I declare to you, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable."

New Testament, 1 Corinthians 15:50
