Meditation and Yoga

Ideally, a guru protects you from making any mistakes that would damage your health. Such a guru can easily read your mind, feel your body as if it was his own (e.g. where it aches). Unfortunately, most modern yoga instructors are just aerobics trainers. They bear no responsibility (legal or otherwise) for your health, and guarantee no results.

A female who teaches yoga is known as a yogini. The word is Sanskrit and is derived from the masculine form of the word which is yogi.

Yoga, literally means to 'yoke' or 'join'. Yoga is that science which allows the student to become at one with the initial creative force from which we came. This is evolution.

Anything which allows a point of consciousness to return to its source is Yoga.

This journey through evolution must include mental advancement for it to be a complete science.

Yoga teaches man, (by man I naturally mean women too!) to expand his mental horizons from the limited constraints of selfishness into the firmanent of selfless expansion to become AT ONE WITH GOD.

So therefore, Yoga is not only nessessary to expand or' free the mind' but one cannot advance oneself mentally UNLESS yoga is PRACTICED.

Yoga can improve your health. It'll also help bring you balance, flexibilty, and poise. It's also very relaxing, and a great way to burn calories, if your not really the cardio kind of person.

Yoga is one of the best ways to keep your body stretched and healthy. Daily yoga will not only make your body feel better, but can put your mind at ease as well. Start your morning off with some deep breathing to relax and clear your mind. If you are new to yoga, start off with a few basic positions such as the cobra or the child's pose. These will gradually get your body into the stretching positions required for harder poses. After a few daily yoga sessions you will look forward to your peaceful time of stretching and meditating.

Buddhists practice meditation for the same reasons others do.

Meditation helps strengthen awareness. Meditation helps us to see that we are not the mind, not the emotions, not the body. Meditation brings a sense of calm. Meditation helps us to see that fulfilling the desires of the mind will not bring a lasting sense of contentment.

If it is done rightly, one does not begin by ridding themselves of possessions. One meditates, and over time, one sees that having many possessions does not bring contentment. Then, if one lets go of things, it is natural, not forced.

Though it is thought of as just another form of exercise by some people, yoga has a foundation in the Buddhist, Hindu and Jainism religions. Therefore, because of the influence of these religions on yoga, many Christians believe that practising yoga lends credence to these other religions at the expense of Christianity, and is wrong. This has a precedence way back in the Old testament where God was angry with the Jews for 'diluting' their own beliefs with the beliefs of those others around them, and by marrying those of other religions, thus compromising their own beliefs, and causing real problems for the beliefs of their offspring. Similarly, in the New Testament some of Paul's letters scold the churches round the Mediterranean area (eg the Corinthians) for adopting pagan practices which had no place in Christianity. With regard to the Roman Catholic Church, in 1989, the Vatican declared that Eastern meditation practices such as Zen and yoga can "degenerate into a cult of the body" in that people become more concerned with their looks and physique than by the condition of their soul. While some critics may think this attitude risible, it is totally justified as is borne out in many parts of the world - eg California USA, where millions of dollars every year are spent on cosmetic and enhancing surgery, purely for vanity, money which could be better spent in feeding the poor of the world.

Yoga today has been misconstrued to be physical exercises but in reality it is a transcendental method to attain spirituality in consciousness by the different yogic postures.The best yoga posture is for prayanama that vitalises all physical organs as the first step to meditation.

Yes. You need it because you do yoga with bare feet and it also provides for support for your moves. There are also moves that you do on your knees and sides so the the mat provides protection.

Meditation is a form of communication with the Divine. Every spiritual practice has in some way or another used this form of communion. Unlike in prayer, in meditation, the human being is not doing the talking but the listening. This is a very personal practice and is usually characterized by silence and awareness of the Presence of God.

Routines can take anywhere from 20 minutes to two hours, depending on the needs and ability of the practitioner. Yoga should always be adapted to one's state of health.

There are different goals for different people. Some meditate to learn the ability of letting go of thought and it's control. Others meditate to connect to the stillness (Self) within.

I agree (with the previous contributor) that its unlikely that you'd want to deflate it but can see that it may be occasionally required; for example packing the ball when taking it on a trip or moving house. If this is required, take the pump and needle that you'd use to inflate it and stick the needle into the valve on the ball. Do not pump. Simply press the needle into the valve (you may have to move it around a little to find the correct position) and you should start to hear a gentle hiss. Apply a light pressure to the ball and it will eventually deflate. Note that the valves on balls are designed to be one-way so while it will deflate it will not do so quickly like a balloon, it may need anywhere up to 15-20 minutes to deflate.

It has no meaning. It is what the Japanese call a "makyo," which is a phenomenon such as a fantasy. The important point is not to attach to it. Notice it and go back to your practicing by focusing on whatever you are supposed to be focusing on.
