True Essence Of Yoga

[Guest guest]

Yoga is the most prestigious field of spiritualism. People think

about 6 wheels (Chakras) or lotus flowers present in the spinal

card, which are not seen by the eyes. They are imaginary and so they

carry some inner meaning. When you say a face as a moon, fools

search for moon in that face. But, wise people see similarity in the

face and moon. Similarly, wheels and lotus flowers should not be

searched in the spinal card. Spinal card is the main nerve,

representing mind, which is the base of love.

 

All these wheels or lotus flowers are the bonds of love in the

various relatives like parents, wife or husband, children etc. They

are compared to wheels or the revolving whirlpools in the ocean,

which attract a swimmer and drown him. Similarly, these love wheels

are compared to lotus flowers, since the lotus flowers attract the

bee by sweet fragrance and bind it. Similarly, these love flowers

attract any one and bind them. " Kundalini " is the mind which is the

energy travelling as waves like a serpent, should cross all these

love wheels connected to 7th lotus flower in the head

called " Sahasrara " , which is Buddhi or intelligence that takes the

decision, which is the firm love on God.

 

Bhagavat Gita is called as the main scripture of Yoga (Yoga-Sastra).

Why there is not even single reference to these wheels or lotus

flowers in anywhere in Gita or even in Upanishats? Since they are

not real, they are not even mentioned. The author of the Gita was

Krishna, who was called Master of Yoga (Yogeswara). Krishna also

says that the real yoga was lost since long (Sa kaleneha mahata….).

This means that in the beginning, Sages in India knew the real yoga

and loved God only crossing all their family bonds. In due course of

time only, this true yoga was lost. Why? The middle age Indians were

unable to cross their family bonds and so failed to succeed in Yoga.

 

They wanted to cover their in ability by twisting the very concept

of yoga. The family bonds were removed from the concept and only

wheels or lotus flowers are left fixed. Now, they close the eyes and

say that they have seen the lotus flowers or wheels, which are only

imaginary. Now they cross these wheels by their

imaginary " Kundalini " and say that they have succeeded in Yoga.

These blind teachers are also not to be blamed, because they were

trained like that by their blind teachers. This misinterpretation

was done long time back and hence, even at the time of Krishna, He

told that yoga was lost since a long time.

 

We cannot catch those original culprits, who were the top most

twisting masters and so the present tradition also cannot be blamed.

Only rectification is the way left over. Some say that they see

light, which is only an imagination. After all, the mind is a form

of energy and on its concentration imaginary light can be imagined.

Instead of such a week light, you better see a strong light with

your open eyes. What is the use of these imaginary lights and

colours, without achieving the Lord through your love, which excels

the various worldly, loves.

 

I pity the foreigners, who are trapped in this false imaginary line

of yoga, who are wasting their precious lifetime and energy. In

fact, they are the best to succeed in yoga, if the reality of the

yoga is exposed. Their family bonds are very weak and their love

towards God is real, which is proved by their huge sacrifice of

money to God's work. Money is the fruit of work and its sacrifice

for God's work is " Karma phala tyaga " as mentioned in Gita. Again,

the middle age Indians twisted this word " Karma phala tyaga " as

sacrifice of the fruit of the work like praying God instead of

sacrifice of money.

 

The reason was that these Indians were unable to sacrifice money to

God due to their strong love on their children. Foreigners ask their

children to earn after certain age. Indians store money even for ten

generations and still continue to store only. Since prayers,

meditation and knowledge are very much diverted to God, India was

blessed by God with good language, good mind and good knowledge.

 

Since foreigners are good in sacrifice, God blessed them with good

wealth. Even Indian spiritual centres were strongly funded by

foreigners only. Swami Vivekananda cried, " Why my India suffers with

poverty in spite of so much spiritual knowledge? " Sacrifice of money

(Karma phala tyaga) and sacrifice of work (karma Sanyasa) put

together constitute the God's service, which is the real Yoga (real

proof of love) called " Karma yoga " in Gita. Foreigners are the best

in this karma yoga and so they easily succeed in yoga. Throughout

Gita, this karma yoga was explained as yoga and wheels or lotus

flowers are not at all mentioned.
