Top 3 Yogi's Secrets for Health and Happiness!
For hundreds of years, the yogi's have been known to know the
secrets for health, peace and happiness. In this short, but
informative article, I will briefly describe 3 of these secrets
with you.
Let's get started:
Secret#1: You are not your physical body.
The Yogis believe, you know, that the real Man is not his body.
They know that the immortal "I" of which each human being is
conscious to a greater or lesser degree, is not the body which
it merely occupies and uses. They know that the body is but as a
suit of clothes which the Spirit puts on and off from time to
time. They know the body for what it is, and are not deceived
into the belief that it is the real Man. But while knowing these
things, they also know that the body is the instrument in which,
and by which the Spirit manifests and works. They know that the
fleshly covering is necessary for Man's manifestation and growth
in this particular stage of his development. They know that the
body is the Temple of the Spirit. And they, consequently,
believe that the care and development of the body is as worthy a
task as is the development of some of the higher parts of Man,
for with an unhealthy and imperfectly developed physical body,
the mind cannot function properly, nor can the instrument be
used to the best advantage by its master, the Spirit.
Secret#2: You are not your mind.
You need to realize the superiority of the "I" or "real self"
over the mind, as well as over the body; the fact that the mind
is not the "I" or "real self", but is merely an instrument for
the expression of the "I"; the fact that the "I" is master of
the mind, as well as of the body; that the "I" is behind all
thought; that the "I" can set aside for consideration the
sensations, emotions, passions, desires, and the rest of the
mental phenomena, and still realize that it, the "I," is apart
from these mental manifestations, and remains unchanged, real
and fully existent; that the "I" can set aside any and all of
its mental tools and instruments, as "not I" or "not real self"
things, and still consciously realize that after so setting them
aside there remains something--itself--the "I" which cannot be
set aside or taken from; that the "I" is the master of the mind,
and not its slave.
Secret#3: You are "one with everything"
To be truly happy and healthy, you need to be aware of "The
Oneness of All". You need to bear in mind the Universality of
Life. All of the Universe is alive, vibrating and pulsating with
life and energy and motion. There is nothing dead in the
Universe. Life is everywhere, and always accompanied by
intelligence. There is no such thing as a dead, unintelligent
Universe. Instead of being atoms of Life floating in a sea of
death, we are atoms of Life surrounded by an ocean of Life,
pulsating, moving, thinking, living. Every atom of what we call
Matter is alive. It has energy or force with it, and is always
accompanied by intelligence and life. Look around us as we will;
at the animal world;at the plant world;yes, even at the world of
minerals and we see life, life, life;all alive and having
intelligence. When we are able to bring this conception into the
realm of actual consciousness;when we are able not only to
intellectually accept this fact, but to even go still further
and _feel_ and be conscious of this Universal Life on all sides,
then are we well on the road to attaining the Cosmic
Consciousness.
