What Is Shanti Yoga About? |
||
| . SHANTI is the Sanskrit word for peace and Yoga is the practice or set of practices for Self-Realization. Therefore SHANTI YOGA can be interpreted as the search for peace through Self-Realization. . |
||
| Peace is the most
desirable condition for man as an entity and for the world as a whole.
It is very difficult to achieve global peace, no matter how many
treaties or covenants are signed, especially if those who are supposed
to abide by them or sign them do not have peace themselves. . |
||
|
We believe that if
every individual tries to work only on himself, striving to achieve a
personal state of peace, there will be no need for treaties or
covenants. Even though it seems as unreal as global peace, we aim to
provide an environment where people can work to obtain a true sense of
peace, an internal peace, a state such as that of those who have
obtained it or are even on their way start radiating it to their
environment becoming "centers for harmony," thus not only
setting an example, but emanating this all-encompassing vibration of
love and compassion that brings us to the consciousness that we are
all one. With yoga we learn to live every day more fully and aware. We
are here to share with you, and thread the path that leads to a better
way of life. |

| The practice of Yoga
helps us physically, mentally and spiritually. With it we will develop
a discipline which enables us to overcome ailments such as back pain,
insomnia, obesity, etc. It gives us the mental stability to overcome
stress and its associated maladies which can lead to serious
illnesses. We derive from it internal peace which enables us to
understand more clearly the essence of our spirit and to realize the
miracle of our existence. . |
