Yoga from the view-point of Reasonable Spirituality
Yoga! Yoga means union, connection. Like ‘one’ and ‘one’ equal to ‘two’. But in higher level of Yoga, there is ‘one’ and ‘one’ equal to ‘one’, being single by mixed up. In practical Yoga, ‘Yoga’ term is used as a way or process or procedure of being united. It happens according the demand of individual, such as, union of mind and body, union of conscious mind and sub conscious mind, union of one’s mind and another mind. An active effort to fulfill one’s demand through Yoga procedure is called Yoga practice and worship. The internal truth is disclosed to a ‘Yogi’ I mean yoga performer, when it happens the right union between ‘Yogi’ and his subject-matter. A Yogi also gets the control on his object of Yoga. There is the success of Yoga. Here, we use the Yoga term in widespread sense, for example-- I am saying and you are listening, it's also 'Yoga' to us.
Life is a course of Yoga! As, in case of individual life, similar to cosmic life (Maha Jivan), too. The fundamental aim of life is self-development. We are travelers of the same path, –the path of blooming consciousness. The continuous advancement from preconscious stage to the goal of full-consciousness, through the gradual development –is Yoga.
This development is taken place through works and enjoyments through Yoga –connecting with different perceptible power and objects, information and theories, knowledge and ideas etc.
We have come here on an educational tour. Gradually gaining high to higher consciousness –is the inherent purpose of human life. Here, as much as we could be enriched with consciousness –acquiring experience –knowledge, so much we would be benefited. From spiritual view-point, at that time when we go away from here –forever, nothing will go along with us, except consciousness.
Our mind is like a gradually blooming lotus flower –largely, in our spiritual psychology. In this mind-lotus, there are several circles formed by a few petals. Different circles of petals are different stages of consciousness or minds of different conscious stages. In the course of gradual blooming of consciousness, circles of petals like different conscious-mind –is bloomed one after one gradually, and at last full development or blooming is taken place.
Now, our sub-conscious mind is almost fully bloomed, and conscious mind is blooming gradually from its sprout stage. In this path of blooming consciousness, at present our aim of life is to be fully developed human beings. After that the ‘Dev-Chetan’ (Dev-conscious) mind will bloom and after that, ‘MahaDev-Chetan’ or MahaDev-conscious mind will bloom gradually. In this way, through the path of blooming consciousness, one time we shall attain full development or ‘Purna Vikash!
In fact, practical Yoga is basically psychological technique of self-programming. Curative Yoga causes cure by the help of sub-conscious mind, and meditation Yoga is a sort of self-hypnosis. That is, foundation of Yoga is science of mind.
To have one’s object achieved by the help of sub-conscious mind –indirectly, is the fundamental thing of Yoga. To get success, Yoga practitioner needs faith and concentration of mind.
To use sub-conscious mind’s amazing power for human welfare, ancient sages had invented Yoga methods. Even in this time, some Yoga processes are inventing by some inventors for self-development, wellbeing– peace and health.
