"Your body houses divine light. Your body is the temple of God. The light exists in everything, in all places, and at all times. The more you become conscious of the divine light in your body, the greater you feel about yourself and the greater you feel about the world you live in."

by Gurumayi Chidvilasananda (Courage and Contentment)

This documentary shares the biggest names of Yoga as Georg Feuerstein, Indra Devi, BKS Iyengar, TKV Desikachar and Patthabi Jois. It reveals how yoga began and how it came to the Ocident, and describes its ramifications and to the several biographies of great Yogis masters.

It is a real dive in ancient philosophy which is Yoga. Follow the trailer...

Namaste
Om Shanti om

"You must learn how to be lucid in all your actions;
that is, you must not only be aware of the time, the place, and the circumstances,
in which the action takes place, but also of yourself, the player, of your body
and what is happening at any moment.
It is not only a question of seeing things as they are, but of seeing yourself at the same time,
and the reactions that take place within you.
In other words, you absorb the whole thing within you and you become complete".

Anusara Yoga Mantra

Anusara (a-nu-sar-a), means "flowing with Grace," "going with the flow," "following your heart." OM Namah Shivaya Gurave — "I bow to the goodness within myself, known as Lord Shiva, who is the true teacher..."

Intuition transcends reason;
it does not contradict reason.

Sri K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga

Sri K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga - Part of Primary

A SAD NOTICE

To my dear yogi friends

Sri K. Pattabhi Jois died this morning, May 18th.

He was 94 years old and died after a short illness. Jois is the founder of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga and the method responsible for spreading around the world.


A great loss to any practitioner of yoga, regardless of style.


Om Shanti!

Yoga pose UTKATASANA

My ego needs,
My soul has.
My ego tries,
My soul does.
My ego knows the problem that is,
My soul becomes the answer that is.
I am not alone;
Within my unlit self
My ego, my naked death.
I am not alone;
Within my snow-white heart
My soul and my Spirit's flame.

The colour of illumination

Back in the far away time of the universe,
a pearl of sensual pleasure falls between two
parentheses and closes the gate of the earthy
deceit leaving grow in my summer garden,
under the olive tree of peace, a sea
of orange flowers,
the colour of illumination.

Universal love to the beat of the heart that awakens.

The refrain from selfish and individual
earthly pleasure,
to collect the fruits of the universal love.

The refrain from selfish and individual
earthly pleasure,,
to give love to the whole Humanity.

Sensuality flies away from me and runs
between the grey - silver leaves dancing
with their arms out of my unlimited field.

The light returns in the hidden alleys of my mind
that echoes to the awakening of universal love.
Light of infinite that comes back to illuminate the blind
latent alleys of my soul.

Universal love to the beat of the heart that awakens.

Back in the far away time of the universe,
a pearl of sensual pleasure falls between
two parentheses and closes the gate of the earthy
deceit leaving grow in my summer garden,
under the olive tree of peace, a sea
of orange flowers,
the colour of illumination.
