Yoga Yogic Exercises and SleepAre we talking of yoga... or yogic exercises! Both have different connotations. Ever since our soul atman... the spirit within separated from its source, God Almighty himself... it tries to return back to its fold... and in the melee... it needs manifesting a chain of 8.4 million bodies... an earthly life cycle of 96.4 million years. Yoga derived its meaning from the root word Yog... which in Hindi means the effort of the soul atman to unite with Parmatman... the greater atman... God Almighty himself! In Hindi two Yog two equals four. Whatever the form of yoga... meditation... the crux is reaching the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha)!
Yoga in English translates to meditation. To meditate... one needs a healthy body. By a regular regime of yogic exercises... one not only maintains a healthy body... but also pursues the spiritual goal of life! Yoga meditation is the sure shot path to reaching God Almighty at the earliest. Yoga is best performed in the night. How? In my pursuit of God... in the initial stages of my life... my father taught me the technique of Shavasana... which is the most potent form of yoga. Shavasana... the dead pose is that form of yoga in which the human body lay on a cot as if dead. Concentrating on our breath... pranayama... one can reach the source of breath! Who takes this breath... nothing else but our soul atman that seems to reside within our heart. In absence of breath... our heart would stop beating... the body would decay and die! Ever since our soul atman manifested the human form... it needs pure air to breathe... this is how the body of a human being functions! To reach our soul atman... taking the breathing route is a sure shot method for reaching God Almighty. Lying in the Shavasana pose of yoga... until I reached the stage of self realization... I practiced Neti (not this, not this)... as preached and advocated by Maharishi Ramana. This process of self enquiry... this process of negating everything is unparalleled! Through the process of Neti (not this, not this) when we negate everything as not being God... what finally remains is God Almighty himself! I started in search of God 13 years of age. It took me 25 years of Yoga meditation before I finally realized God in 1993 at 37 years of age! I finally reached the end goal of spiritual pursuit... the 8.4 millionth manifestation! Shavasana is that form of exercise... that form of yoga... that joins us with God Almighty! It is absolutely recuperating... relaxing... it takes us into another world! Shavasana pose of yoga is the most potent form of yoga meditation one can ever learn in life. I shall always remain indebted to my father for teaching me this special art early in life. God bless my father!
