Yoga’s Advantages: Relaxation and Meditation

Yoga’s Advantages: Relaxation and Meditation

Are you aware off yoga and meditation? Whenever we start something new we have a certain feeling of worry and uncertainty. Especially, when this new thing is the product of a much different culture. Your first impression determines if this new thing will be a part of your pastime again. Yoga has so many health advantages, on both a physical and mental levels, that it can be called a disappointing misunderstanding for anyone to miss out on them because they made any mistake on their first day. Put the case that you know enough about yoga as a kind of gymnastic. Let’s discuss some other advantages of yoga. Relaxation and meditation.

Let’s think about a mindful walk. People, thinking of meditation are usually too serious. Meditation is a natural practice for a human mind. You may think of something very serious and focused, but in sober fact the practice of meditation embraces a wide range of techniques you may try anytime, including many that are appropriate for a mid-day yoga break at work or at home. If you practice yoga you may combine your knowledge with meditation. Yoga and meditation are close to each other on their aims. To do a simple walking meditation, try to keep your mind in the present as you take a mindful walk around some place you know. The purpose is to enjoy the walk. Bringing yoga and meditation into coincidence with each other you can take a mindful walk around your own body.

If your work is concerned with computers, documents, or small objects that strain your eyes and make you to excessively concentrate, the described above meditation can help you to relax. Taking a break from the strenuous work is good for everyone. The yogic practice of withdrawing combines best sides of yoga philosophy and meditation. Close your eyes and move into yourself. This technique brings into a deep sense of peace. At the same time closing our eyes and calm breathing can protect eyes, calm your body, lower the blood pressure, and help you to concentrate for longer periods of time if you need.

If you like this amusement, try something of the sort. The teachers of yoga and meditation say you shouldn’t usually do the same sort of thing. If you prefer classical yoga meditation you also shouldn’t spend all your time in the meditation hall. The environment for your yoga and meditation lessons may be various. Prefer surrounding countryside, wood and seaside. You can stroll in the forest, observe the wildlife, canoe or swim in the lake and ride horses. Find the best way or change them as and when necessary.

Philosophical Astrology & Some Important Yogas

Philosophical Astrology & Some Important Yogas

Astrology is philosophical as Evolutionary Astrology is used by philosophers and Seers. To discern the evolutionary status of the native, Evolutionary Astrology is used.

The four functions of Mind are Manas, Buddhi, Chitha and Ahamkara.

Manas is the processing Mind
Chitha is the storage of impressions in the Subconscient
Buddhi is the intellect
Ahamkara is the Ego

In Astrology, Manas is ruled by the Moon
Chitha by by Venus
Budhhi by Mercury and Jupiter
& Ahamkara by Mars, Sun and Saturn

The ten heads of Ego (Ravana) symbolically are

Kama – Lust
Krodha – Anger
Mada – Pride
Moha – Avarice
Matsarya – Jealousy
Raga – Attachment
Manas – Processing Mind
Buddhi – Intellect
Chitha – Subconcious Mind
Ahamkara – Ego

We have to remove the ten heads of the Ego to attain to Self Actualisation.
The Self is Bliss Absolute ( Ananda ), Absolute and Infinite ( Poorna ) &
Non-dual ( Advaya )
