Yoga in Practice: Projecting Happiness
We are all human, living life with its many "ups and downs, " but how can we keep our spirits up in difficult times? There are many types of Yoga, and not all are physical styles, like the many popular Hatha Yoga sub-styles. To name one that is not Hatha, and classified as one of the nine main Indian Yoga styles, there is Bhakti Yoga - the union of love, devotion, and worship. The principle of Bhakti Yoga is universal to all people of all religions. A person who sings, prays, worships, and helps another person is practicing this form of Yoga - whether they have heard of Bhakti Yoga or not. It does not matter what religion you are because singing, praying, worshiping, forgiving, and helping are morally right. To quote one of the most enlightened men of the 20th century, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. " - Mahatma GandhiTherefore, life is a daily Yoga practice, even if you do not attend a Yoga class. When you help others,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you are practicing Yoga. It could be argued that you are practicing other forms of Yoga, but that is not the purpose of this article. It is more important to understand that you can help others in many ways, and it does not have to cost you a fortune. Projecting happiness is free and does not require a lot of money. Here are some ideas that will help you to be happier, and hopefully, more worry free. Whether you are a beginner, Yoga practitioner, Yoga teacher, or Master teacher of Yoga, you should spread happiness to everyone you meet. Listen to everyone, regardless of his,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or her, social status. Let go of judgment; it makes fools of all of us. Pre-judgment is prejudice, and this is the one thing that prevents world peace. To some degree, we all have felt it, but you must discard it, suppress it, and never teach it. You cannot listen if you are talking at the same time. The wisest and most educated person has learned that the purpose of listening is to understand; understanding is knowledge, and knowledge is power. There are times,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when you cannot listen. This could be due to time restraints, the fact that you may have heard it all before, or possibly you do not consider this person' s opinion to be important. My grandfather had a saying, "Even the court jester can teach you something about life. " Sometimes, we take the help, or opinions of others, for granted. How many times do we seek more information in order to make the best decision? The final decisions you make, in any given situation are entirely up to you, but when you can sit back and listen,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that is time for learning. Try to avoid arguments and stay the course of peaceful co-existence. You may not always be able to do this, but you should try to improve. You could keep a log of daily situations that end peacefully and those that did not. This is not meant to make you feel guilty, but it is a course in self-improvement. You will then see your daily shortcomings and your success. Learn to develop your power of influence for the common good. It does not matter who is right, especially, if your intention is to proliferate happiness. Related to this, I share one more quote by Mahatma Gandhi. "What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty or democracy? " - Mahatma GandhiThink about these words, and how you can make the world around you a happier place. This concept is contagious, but it has to come from within and spread worldwide.?
