ABOUT YOGA

A person who becomes aware of the need to improve, who adopts certain disciplines to experience inner unity, and who, in the course of time, expresses that inner unity in the outer world is known as a yogi. Yoga is a process of moving from personal to the universal. This opens up the heart, which is the most important thing in life.

 

A person is a combination of dynamism, emotion, psyche, and intellect. Simultaneous development of these four aspects helps to develop an integrated personality.


Yoga means ultimate union. When union between the pranic and mental forces takes place, higher consciousness is awakened.

 

The main objective of Hatha yoga ( Ha’ stands for vital energy and Tha’ stands for mental energy) is to create an absolute balance between body, mind and energy.

 

Yoga is a universal science designed to give a healthy body and a healthy mind to every person. Yoga is for everybody-- children, youth, middle-aged, the elderly, men, women, and the disabled can practice yoga.

 

Yoga postures aim to release blocked energy from the body points. In ha-tha yoga, the asanas (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), mudras (physical gestures) and bandhas (locks) are systems of purification, which are important prerequisites to spiritual awakening.

 

Hatha yoga is ultimately indeed for developing human consciousness, not just body or mind.


Proper yoga practice increases awareness, improves concentration, and provides real relaxation. As the body systems recharge and blockages are removed, prana (vital energy) flows freely. One is able to perceive connections between body and mind.

The goal of Kasi Yoga is to promote unity by maintaining physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

Kasi Yoga approaches union/yoga mainly through hatha yoga practices of asana (postures), pranayama (breathing), mudra (gestures), and bandha (energy locks). Kasi Yoga also teaches mantra yoga and meditation. Read more about Kasi Yoga here.


He who has not controlled his mind and senses can have no reason; nor can such an undisciplined man think of God. The unthinking man can have no peace; and how can there be happiness for one lacking peace of mind?

~Bhagavad Gita

Wisdom from Guru Swami Sivananda

Swami Sivanandaji
Life is a journey from impurity to purity, from hatred to cosmic love, from death to immortality, from imperfection to perfection, from slavery to freedom, from diversity to unity, from ignorance to eternal wisdom, from pain to bliss, from weakness to infinite strength.


Yoga teaches us how to curb the outgoing tendencies of the mind and attain the pure state of bliss by going beyond the mind. Yoga teaches how to attain the state of divinity.
