Living is an art.
Language is for communication to be used sincerely.
Learning never ceases.
Degrees and certificates are not the sole measure of credibility.
We live in an imaginary world, caught in transactional bo***ge.
Constructive imagination for the planet is a better choice than destructive
Life is so much more than name, fame, recognition and bucks.
Ahimsa is the very basis of a sound mind foundation.
Crossing paths with kindness is precious.
Conditioning impairs our real nature.

On another note, do Yoga, Veganism and Ahimsa have a common thread?

The entire study of Yoga is a direct contact between the teacher and student, through which the student learns to connect with their own self and other sentient beings in kindness, including animals and humans.

Interest can be invoked by watching videos or listening or reading. But the real transformation can and will only happen with the one on one deep connect between the teacher and student, a connect of complete respect, trust and surrender.

The body and mind need to prepared, kneaded and cleansed to receive these teachings. This is a constant process, can take a second or few lifetimes. Till this is not understood the teachings will never sink in living.

Yoga study is not like studying physiotherapy, physics, chemistry, zoology or botany!
Guidance is the key and these things cannot be just handled without the right guidance which comes with the support of Grace(Isvara Kripa) alone. Sometimes it can even cause harm and we need to understand this.

Wishing all of us a mindful understanding and progressively expansive journey.

Yoga is not an academic subject, requires not just an intellect, but a kind heart, with Ahimsa.

What and how one intakes and consumes matter.

A Spiritual Guide and Life Teacher will show you paths, and leave you to choose yours in profound ways.

They teach us the timeless ways of living in tune with the Ancient Indic Wisdom Doctrines.

Thier intervention in your life is a catalyst to bring about transformations. In that process and along the way we learn gratitude, love, humility and respect from these souls who guided us in the ocean of the pairs of opposites.

Sharing all the good spirit, energy and pure intentions from Sir Desikachar, who was kind, supportive, helpful and encouraging as a Master & Teacher.

A Precious Gift, a beautiful book on Purusha Suktam, that I had the good humble fortune to get from Sir, as part of my one on one Yoga and Vedanta studies with him since I met him in my late teens.

My own personal Yoga Journey began with the study of Yogasutras and Vedic Chanting that I was initiated into by Sir Desikachar, and simultaneously my YOGASANA practices began, one on one, individualized, to suit my body, mind and breath status at the present moment.

🙏💜🕉️
AUM

P.S - I worked as a cartoonist and was publishing editorial cartoons for newspapers in my 20's. Sir Desikachar drew this smiling face while presenting me with this book, encouraging me with his connection with the best intention.

YOGA OF AHIMSA IN KIND LIVING

Dedicating this life journey, living and sharing the beautiful principles of, 'Our Ancient Yoga Wisdom', is one of the most profound headspaces to be in heartfully and mindfully, in this precious human birth.

So many changes in shedding off what is not needed through this sacred practice. At the same time this profound Yoga Wisdom is so skewed and lost in its real application in Living today. Its principles of transformation are so simple and strong. Change cannot happen in groups only, It has to happen on an individual level eventually.

It begins with the basic choices we begin to make including what we feed our physical body and mind as that also is responsible eventually for the way we think. Ahimsa. Such a stable and peaceful touch to it.

May we make the right food consumption choices for the planet, animals and our own consciousness.

A plant based consumption these days is growing at a rapid speed as people are beginning to understand the impact animal products are having on our levels of grief, anxiety, health and planet.

I hope and pray that all sentient beings are protected by us humans. We have a choice, they don't.

Yoga.
Ahimsa.

AHIMSA IN YOGA
www.samitarathor.com/yogarpanam

We live on one planet, and all sentient beings need to be respected, including all other animals, as we humans are also animals. We have the precious potential to evolve to know our real nature with the purpose of spreading peace, love, and respect.

What we intake in all possible forms matters.

All the value systems in Yoga are applicable to every human being, to be practised and applied in living, not just Yogasanas or Pranayama for therapeutic benefits only.

The codes of kind living are meant for all.

We need to spread awareness of simple facts of unity and peace in humanity and should we not extend it to other non human animals.

The one thread that integrates all is the same inner stuff in each one of us in different degrees of evolution. Blood, bones, skin, systems, and organs of perception. This also applies to non-human animals.

AHIMSA is a beautiful sadhana and practice and often a practice is termed and reduced to physical posture and breathing, which is not the essence of Yoga Teachings primarily, only.

Wishing all yoga practitioners Ahimsa in living, teachers included.

AUM

Historical Moment.
Changed lives and life.

Powerful memories were formed when a divine thought originated in my dream state, manifested in the waking state into reality, and a seed of Parinama- transformation was planted with Shraddha-Faith, and Isvarapranidhanam-Surrender.

Reminds me of this beautiful verse.

LIVING TRADITION OF YOGA
Yoga is beyond bending backward and forward.

Lived experiences and a non-judgmental mindset are integral to a yoga journey.

Every individual's uniqueness necessitates a distinct journey of cause and effect. It is heartening to see lived experiences gaining prominence and value in contemporary times, beyond mere academic qualifications.

Life's complexities cannot be fully comprehended only through mere book knowledge, yogasanas, and pranayama.

Yoga is an experiential traditional journey that demands an open heart, openness, exemplary values, and humble wisdom.

I hope and pray that we continue to honour Yoga's origins and inherent sanctity.

Yoga is a holistic way of life, encompassing growth, strength, adaptability, and union, aiming to connect with the all pervading consciousness that sustains the cosmos.

The Truth predates language. It existed before humans spoke.

With love and prayers,
Hari Aum Tat Sat.

Remember Nature thrives In Silence.
We are nature.

Ahimsa
“Teach what is inside you.
Not as it applies to you, to yourself,
but as it applies to the other.”

Tirumalai Krishnamacharya

Yoga is an experiential metaphysical Science in tune with natures principle of consciousness in living and practise, not just theoretical and cerebral.

Sri Krishnamacharya was a great scholar and taught for the students and so did Sir T. K. V. Desikachar, never made it hard for them, gracefully.

A lot of emphasis is laid on lived experiences as per Yoga Teachings, which are universally applicable to yoga practitioners.

The key foundation is Ahimsa.

Humbly sharing the real essence of Yoga Teachings in the endeavour of retaining the gracefulness and it’s consciousness principle of non ego, which is not as much as a topic of discussion like Asanas and Pranayama.

Hello Beautiful Community,

Can a Yoga Teacher Training Course be larger than the one to one connection with your teacher, and the right teacher, who is sincere and non judgemental? This needs to be acknowledged, not just only certifications with all due respect, and involves the concept of Śraddhā.

Śraddhā (श्रद्धा, shraddhaa) is a Sanskrit term loosely translated as "faith". Śraddhā is a broad concept which has no direct English relative or equivalent. In addition to faith, it can also be associated with trust, confidence, and loyalty.

Śraddhā is an integral part of a sound 360 degree wholesome inner and outer integrative journey.

Such a beautiful virtue to be embraced and practised in this human mind evolution travel.

Ahimsa. Be Kind.

In Silence.
With love and prayers,

💚
