The other thing here is once you practice and tasted this nectar of bliss, you will go to a different plane from where one can not look back and that too the bliss will become intense on and on .when one gone to that heights he may not need to look back;all his/her focus must be moving forward rather going back all the path we have travelled.</div><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">But, here in this yoga sutras patanjali is a man of miracle and yet seems to be a man of ordinary.He explain this sutras in a simple manner from the un-reachable heights where he is.</div><div align="justify">To his level of being, i always wonder how could he step down to explain each and every details of his experience's to such an extend and how copassion he is having toward us.? just amazing.no words will really suit to show our love and gratitude to him.</div><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">Being an exordinary is not difficult at many times somehow it happens. One can/will become certainly exordinary.But once you become an exordinary, it is very tuff for you to be just ordinary.Being just an ordinary person is a great thing in life. Like j.krishnamurthy used to tell his deciples"just be".Once a person achive the exordinary state ,it is difficult for him/her to become ordinary.Even our thought pattern will become more and more comolicated...Our mind refuse to think ordinary. We will make the simplest thing into the very complex mode.</div><br /><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify">How to be 'JUST BE'?. you can learn this art from patanjali.Though he is in such a heights he will exactly find you and throughly know your need and will come to your level of understanding and take your hand undo his hand and will lead you the way out.He will not show his fingers to show/guide the path you need to cross over,rather he will lift you like a mother who will guide the toddler how to walk...the same compassion you can get from him.that is the beauty of this patanjali yoga sutra's. So, Let us listen and fallow him.You need not to be worried.he is there to take care. he will take you.You be at ease..and travel along with him that will do.</div><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">The <strong>Yama's</strong> are nothing but the <strong>Restraints </strong>and how we will aplly and live our life.It is not a harsh rules to fallow just for the shake of your society.It is a soft rules to adapt in our everyday living.It is just being aware of your ownself with total consciousness.it is a kind of 'Suya Dharma'.</div><div align="justify"></div><br /><div align="justify">Here i am not intrested to give the literary meaning of the sutras.I prefer to give you the essence and let you live all these upto your own truth.because we are not in a 'Gurukula' ,where we can have a deeper interaction and understandings.let you be responsible to learn with much higher receptivness.That will give you all learning ability unto you.<br /><br /><span

These are the real objects of the senses, and all the variety we see is made up of forms of these objects. </strong></div><div align="justify"><strong><br />Our sensations are the five objects. We sense through the Indriyas or sense-organs. With the sense of the ear we come in contact with Ether and hear sound which is a reverberation produced by Ether. Touch is the property of Air, felt by us with the tactile sense. With the sense of the eyes we contact light which is the property of Fire. With the palate we taste things, which is the property of Water. With the nose we smell objects, and this is the property of Earth.</strong></div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>There is the vast universe, and we know it with our senses. We live in a world of fivefold objects. The senses are incapable of knowing anything more than these element. The internal organ, as informed and influenced by the objects, deals with them in certain manners, and this is life. While our psychological reactions constitute our personal life, the adjustment we make with others is our social life. The Yoga is primarily concerned with the personal life of man in relation to the universe, and not the social life, for, in the social environment, one’s real personality is rarely revealed. Yoga is essentially a study of self by self, which initially looks like an individual affair, a process of Self-investigation (Atma-Vichara) and Self-realization (AtmaTHEYOGA SYSTEM 4 Sakshatkara). But this is not the whole truth. The Self envisaged here is a consciousness of gradual integration of reality, and it finally encompasses all experience and the whole universe in its being.</strong></div><div align="justify"><br /></div><div align="justify"><br /><strong>While the psychology of Yoga comprises the functions of the internal organ, and its physics is of the five great objects or Mahabhutas, the philosophy of Yoga transcends both these stages of study. The Yoga metaphysics holds that the body is not all, and even the five elements are not all. We do not see what is inside the body and also what is within the universe of five elements. A different set of senses would be necessary for knowing these larger secrets. Yoga finally leads us to this point. When we go deep into the body we would confront its roots; so also in the case of the objects outside. When we set out on this adventure, we begin to converge slowly at a single centre, like the two sides of a triangle that taper at one point. The so-called wide base of the world on which we move does not disclose the truth of ourselves or of objects. At this point of convergence of ourselves and of things, we need not look at objects, and here no senses are necessary, for, in this experience, there are neither selves nor things. There is only one Reality, where the universal object and the universal subject become a unitary existence. Neither<br />is that an experience of a subject nor an object, where is revealed a knowledge of the whole cosmos, at once, not through the senses, mind or intellect,-for there are no objects,-and there is only being that is consciousness. Yoga is, therefore, spiritual, superphysical or supermaterial,because materiality is shed in its achievement, and consciousness reigns supreme. This is the highest object of Yoga, where the individual and the universe do not stand apart as two entities but come together in a fraternal embrace. The purpose of the Yoga way of analysis is an overcoming of the limitations of both subjectivity and objectivity and a union of the deepest within us with the deepest in the cosmos.</strong></div><div align="justify"><br /></div><strong><div align="justify"><br /></strong><span style="color:#666666;"> SOURCE:-THE YOGA SYSTEM</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#666666;">By SRI SWAMI KRISHNANANDA</span></div>Dr.G.RAMANIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14027575928508839615noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4969296927459702330.post-47536432843879736042008-11-18T07:09:00.000-08:002008-11-18T07:31:58.105-08:00THE YOGI<div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnWCNsPwSkpPWC_o59HQkH7znBMG1-nd-Rk3vcc7uc9aRICH6mbpvaMpwwOK0pihrtMU9Uuk8aUsUQsQJWU5FgpqSN_IqJuV7Enk_lVdeWgVfNs5-NRlOgJc6fHSAlgtmqU2Vh9dKlDZs/s1600-h/shiva3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270019333598928770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnWCNsPwSkpPWC_o59HQkH7znBMG1-nd-Rk3vcc7uc9aRICH6mbpvaMpwwOK0pihrtMU9Uuk8aUsUQsQJWU5FgpqSN_IqJuV7Enk_lVdeWgVfNs5-NRlOgJc6fHSAlgtmqU2Vh9dKlDZs/s400/shiva3.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:180%;"> <strong>'</strong></span><span style="color:#000000;"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;">SHIVA'</span> </strong></span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#3333ff;"><strong>THE ORIGIN OF THE VIGHYAN BHAIRAV TANTRA.WE CAN ALSO CALL HIM THE FOUNDER OF YOGA.WHO IS IMMORTAL AND LIVE EVER AND TAKE SHAPE OF A HUMAN BEINGS.BECAUSE</strong> </span><strong><span style="color:#3333ff;">HE IS THE GREATEST YOGI WHO CAN PHYSICALLY APPEAR OR DISAPPEAR<br /></span></div></strong>Dr.G.RAMANIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14027575928508839615noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4969296927459702330.post-8007690522504921592008-11-12T04:42:00.000-08:002008-11-12T04:58:15.408-08:00PRANAYAMA<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw7FYqToJxVZt0-mkau9hFRO-HxZ7qFcNZ7fEoB_IdzKdrECXQjr8fxBEk4t-U8AN_viwBFQYndrUw-Dvm4mGjv76mVQxZolLO6H9-aydY84VYPCacZZi_TFRxvQKadV-2P3gZV91GttA/s1600-h/yogiseal2.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267754417245704306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 206px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 210px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw7FYqToJxVZt0-mkau9hFRO-HxZ7qFcNZ7fEoB_IdzKdrECXQjr8fxBEk4t-U8AN_viwBFQYndrUw-Dvm4mGjv76mVQxZolLO6H9-aydY84VYPCacZZi_TFRxvQKadV-2P3gZV91GttA/s400/yogiseal2.gif" border="0" /></a><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://djenm.blogspot.com/2008/11/breath-of-life.html"><span style="font-size:180%;"><strong>The Breath Of Life</strong></span></a> </div><br /><div align="justify"><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">No one can live for more than a few minutes without breathing, yet how many of us are aware of the importance of proper breathing ? </span></div><br /><div align="justify"><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></div><br /><div align="justify"><span style="font-size:130%;">We need to breathe slowly and deeply.
