Yoga and Spirituality 2

Spiritual Journey

Hello friends, as I mentioned in my previous post, I was doing some research to understand better how yoga and spirituality are connected. I guess I have got the answer and thus would like to share with you all here.

A very first thing which I understand is, Yoga is the base of spirituality. By practicing Yoga we can get energy and power to start our journey towards spirituality. We need to be aware of our full potential and our Atman.

To achieve this we need to be disciplined, focused and yoga helps you dramatically in it. Path of spirituality is not easy. Self realization and to understand our own conscious is something which we all need to learn properly. Practicing meditation, which is one the most important aspect of Yoga can lead us to our Goal where we all can find the Solace.

I hope whatever  little knowledge I've shared here, can definitely give you an insight of the topic. Feel free to comment on the post and add your valuable views in.

Yoga and Spirituality?

The Holy Ganges in Rishikesh

Ever since I started doing yoga one question was spinning around my head.  That question is what’s the connection between Yoga and Spirituality? Or how they are correlated?

After doing some research on internet and discussing with some of the experts in the subject, I found that Yoga and Spirituality are undividable. Yoga is not confined to doing exercises only. Its way of living life, it’s a thought process. In the west breathing exercises and Asanas  are only known steps to reach a high point of spirituality, whereas in India it is a subject to explore your inner strength.

While visiting to Rishikesh (India) I met a spiritual leader who told me that, the more you know about yoga the greater will be your desire to be spiritual. I am still trying to find out more clues and in my coming posts I will put forward some aspects which will throw light over, how these two rivers i.e. Yoga and Spirituality amalgamates together in the ocean of humanity!
