Anyone know any good yoga resources on the net that outline the benefits of particular asanas? Cheers.
Bwell as u recall, asana is understood by "position".. That is, known as --hata yoga, yoga concernin about the material boddy itself, if you want to overcome the suffering, have you think about your spiritual body?? Bwell, i live to tell you that there is a proces to develop the spiritual body, that we are. the asanas are good for the body healt itself, and if you compare it i hope you are going to search over if one reached the spiritual plane with yoga @ that point of health you are not more goin to be worried about the fisical.. condition. Ok, i will lend you some link and you go on chekin. do not doubt it, If one is concerned with Yoga health and the self realization stuff that is the best thing one can do as a human being... http://www.krishna.com/main.php?id=457 Here you will find the Hole teaching, from the vedic ancient culture, from there the asanas can be known also, as i tell u that is another topic along the self realization asays. Hope this help. !
The Goal of Life The goal of human life is to re-awaken our original pure love for God, Krishna. We souls exist to have an intimate loving relationship with Him. We can never be happy by rejecting that relationship and denying our true nature. The things we do in this world indicate our true, eternal nature. We have to love; it’s unavoidable. Having turned away from Krishna, we try to fulfill our need to love and be loved by searching for ideal relationships in this world. But exchanges of love here are never perfect and cannot last forever. Awakening pure love for Krishna is perfection. Nothing else will satisfy us. Everything that exists in the material and spiritual worlds is meant to support our relationship with Krishna. Human life is a chance for us to reestablish that relationship. That endeavor should be the focus of our lives. Because love includes service, pure love for God is called pure devotional service, or Bhakti. The ways to awaken Bhakti are the substance of the practice of Bhakti yoga. Learn More…
