Human body is a structure designed in a very special way - special because all the vital organs in our body are set in a way that seems rather fixed as none seem to be piled up but it is actually piled up, none is fixed at its place with any tools but they are there so all our organs are always placed where they were when we were born, for example, your heart is all the time where it was before.
The human body is internally fixed in such a way that all organs are working at their own place without disturbing others. Each has its own function and each is working for the betterment of the body.
If one stops or stops functioning well, the body is then said to be sick and need medical assistance.
Yoga is the form of medical exercise that repairs, supports and reborn the sick organ to work best in the body. The good think is that you have yoga for each of your body part and for its proper functioning.
If internally all is set to go well, certainly your life span will be longer and your body will be functioning better for the longer period of time.
Yoga is the art designed and developed say 5000 years ago for the betterment of our body and our body is not just a combination of organs but a designed structure-blessed with a soul that has the power and capacity to interact with bigger soul whom we call GOD.
This unique spirituality is the base that demarcates human lives with other forms of lives present around us. It is the spirituality that connects us at the same time with every living and non-living thing in a way which is very poetic in nature.
Those things which are around us communicate with us and send messages which are received by our senses organs and our mind suddenly starts function accordingly. We can feel within those vibrations and pulses which further help our body to develop some secretion from our glands which further promote and provide life to our body.
When we see something good or odd around us, when we think anything good or bad, within us some secretion of enzyme takes place and our body function changes in deep within - let's say at the microscopic level.
Yoga is that filtration or movement of body, mind and soul.
Yoga is an art of living, breathing and movement of our muscles and body framework that can support human life and connect it with the divine. It is a way to feel peace within our mind and bring focus into our life and breeding functioning.
In yoga, breading which is considered as the first and the most important sign of life within our body comes in the process of rejuvenation and our deep breath goes very deep within up to our cells level and enlivens our whole body as one unit for the proper functioning of our body.
The yoga teaching called Patanjali is considered as the oldest teaching about yoga which is around 5000 years old but yoga is still older than those times as yoga was not invented by him but it was present in some form before his life's time frame. He collected the knowledge and taught the world.
Patanjali defines yoga as - if you still the modification and activities of the mind, you are in yoga and in there everything has become one in your consciousness. In our conscious state, most of the human beings for ages are only using it for developing its memories and imagination which are no two things but one.
Memory is an accumulation of past and imagination is exaggerated version of that so your mind is a game of inventing the past and creating new past. It sets a pattern but to break this pattern memory and imagination is not enough.
Patanjali, the enlightened one, chose to describe yoga as - Chitta Vritti Nirodha that means - a technology which can take you towards your liberation or realisation.
Yoga is the form of fresh blood that is the best for our brain.
On the eve of Yoga day, we are to address yoga from within by knowing its value, importance and how and what it can offer to bring to our life and can become a source of transformation not just to body functioning but on the level of mind and soul.
