The Concept Of Yoga

#

Cleaning and alignment of a person
at the physical, emotional, intellectual, and energy
to the surrounding and cosmos in large
is utmost important for happy living
and well being of an individual.

For that purpose, we do various kinds of activities
like bathing, prayers, social work, preaching, study, etc.
But ultimately it is for the self only.

How foolish it is to think that
I am bathing so that others do not smell bad in me,
I am doing social service for the sake of society,
I am doing prayer for the sake of God and the well-being of others,
I am doing a study to make my student successful.

We should be thankful for the cosmos
that it has given me so many
opportunities and methods to clean ourselves.

These different methods are called
Gyan yoga, Bhakti yoga, Karma yoga, Ashtanga yoga etc.
Depending on the level you are cleaning yourself.

But the ignorant mind will always be convinced that
I am doing so much for my children, society,
company, family, nation and
they cannot pay me back for my hard work and austerity.

Hari Om Tat Sat
Yours Truly Hari
