Spirit of Yoga

The spirit of yoga is universal.

It is not a culture or organization.

It is not limited to a location on the planet.

Even though it was born in India, the reality of yoga is not a cultural tradition.

This spirit goes beyond, borders, boundaries, races and any other forms of divisions.

This spirit is not fixed in a set of rules and disciplines.

Yoga is here to free your mind, not to limit you within a set of limiting patterns.

There is no suppression or constriction.

There is only freedom, open space, clarity, brightness and beauty.


Where to start?

You can start here and now.

The state of yoga is a not a distant reality that you project into the future.

It is a mind state that you wake up in the moment.

Right now, there are dozens of actions you can take to activate the flow of life force in your being.

Most of these actions are simple and require no discipline at all.

Yoga is a natural path

It is not a constriction or suppression of your being.

Yoga is freedom!

It is total freedom!

So, get away altogether from this idea of rigid discipline which limits your mind within a constricted frame.

You want to open space. 

You want to expand and energize your sphere of life force.


Wake up your life power

Your life power is the basic energy which activates your being.

It is the essence which flows in you.

Life power is precious.

The goal of yoga is to activate and clear your life channels.

You wake up your life power by activating your mind, body and spirit and aligning them with powerful streams of inspiration.

You wake up your life power by removing whatever blocks the flow of life force in your being.

Life force is like water.

It is the flow of incarnation into matter.

Where there is space and clarity, it naturally flows.

Now, the mind and the body are refined architectures.

You want to design a vehicle which is super conductive to life.

To design such vehicle you need the power to protect it and strengthen it.

You need as well key mind sets which fit with this evolution line. 


What are your tools?

The goal is to invite a greater stream of life force in your being and to remove whatever might be stopping this flow.

The moment you connect with yoga, you connect with tools, practices, mind sets, ideas, inner architectures.

You become aware of your actions and their impact on your life and your mind.

You realize that you are the conscious designer of your existence.

You have the power to reshape your life, being and energy according to the universal plan of yoga.

Your first tools are your body and mind.

These are your vehicles.

In your mind, you have thoughts and emotions.

Thoughts and emotions are the visible reflection of an energy impacting on your being.

When you connect with the spirit of yoga, you simply โ€œfine-tuneโ€ your vehicle to become super conductive to the flow of universal life force.

You tune your body and mind through Kriya โ€“ Conscious action.

An action is anything you do, think or feel.

When your actions are in tune with the long term evolution plan for your being and the planet, you invite a greater flow of life force in your being.

You synchronize your actions with a vaster reality.


How to manifest a state of yoga

Yoga means unity.

When you are in a state of unity you manifest your universal identity.

You function from a place where there is no separation between you and the cosmos, the planet, nature and humankind.

You know that we do live in a field of unified consciousness, right?

You experienced it in many ways.

Now, the goal of yoga is to experience that field all the time.

It is to be in a state of mystical union every single minute.

Now, the effects of this state of unity are so powerful that they transform your mind and body forever.

How to manifest a state of yoga?

The first step is to really understand what you want to do.

Once you have understanding, you need to connect with a stream of power and inspiration that will take you there.

It is like swimming in a river that takes you to the sea.

Yoga is an invisible system.

No one fully owns it.

It is anywhere you are, not just in a Himalayan cave.

The next step is to ask for help.

It is very simple:

This energy field can't connect with you unless you want to.

Simply express your call in one way or another:

  • "I am ready"

  • "Can you guide me?"

  • "I need your help"

Or any other expression of your desire to connect with that energy reality.

That's it ๐Ÿ™‚

It's not so much the words, it is the intention.

Realize that you are communicating with a field of intelligence which is much vaster than yourself and much vaster than a person.

Now, you probably won't see the sky opening up or a voice talking to you. Even though this could happen as well... Maybe ๐Ÿ™‚

The guidance and inspiration you might receive is usually much more subtle.

Here are some examples of what can happen:

  • There is no clear answer but the following day you feel inspired to do something.

  • This action might look insignificant but it is one small step in the right direction.

  • Or you might have a sudden realization two days later.

  • Or you suddenly feel a strong stream of bliss.

  • Or you feel nothing at all.

  • Etc.

These are only some examples of course. 

The range of experiences you can have is so diverse. 

It is impossible to even attempt to describe them all.

The next step is to respond to this inspiration and actually take action.

Now, taking action can often feel like a small risk. 

You don't really know what you are responding to.

It simply feels right.

To take action you need to trust yourself, trust your instinct and trust your source of inspiration.

As you can see, the whole process of manifesting a state of Yoga has its own inner dynamic.

While none of this is fixed and crystallized, you will still recognize some form of coherence behind the inspiration that touches you.

It all makes total sense once you start taking action in that direction.

Now, this "trust" dimension is essential.

Nothing happens unless you fully trust this field of energy and respond to it.

This field of energy can't inspire you unless you ask for help and guidance.

It might be just a one time question or call.

Or it might be a call you renew every day through meditation for instance.

This energy reality simply responds accordingly.

You are free!

This is not exclusive. 

The fact that you relate to this specific line of evolution does not mean that you have to cut contact with everything else.

It is not exclusive. 

You are free!

That's it for today

Enjoy!
