Yoga for spiritualityDr Vishwas Chhabra |
Spirituality is "realising" daily that as we feel and breathe, we get connected to a greater universal pulse of life.
Yoga can help ease our tensions so that we can open up to this amazing experience called "life".
Breath and healing
Breath plays an important role in healing. As you practise yoga, it’s crucial to focus on the fundamental pulsations of the body as they are intimately connected with the experience of being alive.
Self-reflection
Yoga provides for self-reflection, allowing you to become aware of your body, feelings and surroundings. It makes you more in tune with your own needs as well as the needs of others. And this feeling results in empowerment.
Spiritual benefits
The advanced spiritual benefits of yoga include psychic control, mind control and thought control. Relaxation in thoughts will help you gain knowledge.
Along with improvement, your attitude will also change.
As you practise yoga, you become more compassionate about your surroundings and fellow beings.
The control over your thoughts will help you to suppress the materialistic pressures of life.
Self-realisation
The ultimate spiritual benefit of yoga is self- realisation.
The understanding of "self" will help heal the pain of your body as well as your mind. The rejuvenation of mind and health by practising yoga will certainly benefit and pave your path to spiritual liberation.
