Guest guest Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Thank you for sharing Dilipji. To be able to sit in one asana comfortably is defined by the sages.How do one overcome obstacles created by inablity to sit in one asana for along time for recitation purpose? We see Swamiji sits in siddhasana while Bhagawan Ramakrishna often seen in sukhasana? In recitation of Chandi Path what would be ideal and how does one overcome these difficulties ?

Moreover I try to cook my own food or visit strict veg place (home or retsaurant). I like to do Ekadashi, Ashtami, etc.. also.

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 I like to keep life simple and sweet full of Love and Devotion to One you pray to. But at the same time, being in this body one has to push oneself little bit (with the right attitude) - That's in lay men's term "Payback" - So Asana is good as long as it doesn't deviate you from your Sadhana and right attitude. Our scriptures are full of Ascetics who performed their sadhana's in various asanas. So pick one or few asanas but don't keep changing them during course of a Sadhana in a session. Be mindful at all times - that's the best practise! Its best to maintain one single Asana in at least one session ... but facts of life - pain, time, restrictions, .... but at the same time don't forget Payback also! I'm not too strict about Asanas - I'm ordinary individual with sincere dedication ... I look at it this way, "What if One doesn't know a Asana, God is going to get angry or be not happy - I don't want that God who is getting influenced by my body (or external stuff)!" regards, Dilip kanna krishnan <kanna_krishnan2002 > wrote: Namaskar Dilipji, Thank you for sharing Dilipji.
