Tranquility Training

Description

I have a feeling that the earlier experience of great peace has to merge with this new experience of power, but I may be wrong. Please may I know what I should do.

Most readers know that the meaning of the word yoga is union, but actually the path, the system of yoga, consists of a process of viyoga – separation. This seems to be a total contradiction, but is not. It means that through yoga practices, one must separate awareness from the mind and body. There must be a personal experience of the difference between the mind-body aspect and the awareness aspect of one’s being. Only when this separation and difference is personally experienced can one know the truth behind it. And when this separation occurs between the seer and the seen, then one will understand oneself and life from a new and higher platform. There will be an explosion of new understanding. This viyoga is the first step towards the culmination of yoga; this separation is the first step towards unity.

If you come to this ashram you will also be expected to work throughout the day. This is not to provide cheap labour for the ashram or for the sake of the ashram upkeep, for there are many other people available and willing to do the work necessary for the smooth functioning of the ashram. You will be expected to work for your own sake, for your spiritual progress. This work is one of the most important aspects of ashram life, and actually the biggest problem is not finding people to do work, but finding enough work to keep people busy. This work is important in gradually purifying the mind, especially in the early stages of spiritual life.

Surya namaskara consists of live essential aspects. All of them must be done to gain the optimum results from the practice.
