Like Yoga, the spiritual life is actually very difficult.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Yoga is not a religion to me.
Yoga has reinforced and grounded my own spiritual beliefs.
A lot of people have questioned how yoga and their own spiritual beliefs can come together. Yoga actually pre-dates religion.
Any spirituality can be enhanced with the practice or study of yoga.
I mean the whole thing about meditation and yoga is about connecting to the higher part of yourself, and then seeing that every living thing is connected in some way.
I don't like the idea of spirituality done the way it's done. The only way I could understand it was through creativity, not by going to an Ashram, or finding a guru or joining a temple. I made work out of it.
Yoga is an art and science of living.
Yoga has brought me closer to myself. It's helped me realize the interconnectedness of the mind, body and spirit, in the Buddhist sense of the word.
Yoga is a way to freedom. By its constant practice, we can free ourselves from fear, anguish and loneliness.
I find that when I put my spiritual life first, the rest of my life is easy. When I put my career first, that's when I have problems.
