Yoga and Karma

This podcast is from an old webinar by Swami Sita.  Swamiji shares that karma means action and comes from our desires.  Our actions from the past will result in our present situation.  We have an inner conflict and need to choose the path that won’t bind us to karma.  The yoga guidelines of yamas and niyamas are essential to be free from karma.

Crest Jewel of Discrimination

In this podcast, Swami Sita teaches from the book Crest Jewel of Discrimination written by Adi Sankaracharya.  Sankara describes the need for devotion in order to experience truth and freedom.  We have to learn to have discernment between what is helping us and what is not.  By practicing right thinking we can cultivate an inner power / knowledge.  Our current state is that we are lost in an ocean of worldliness where we only see external things.  But we need to remember the Self and have the power of discrimination / discernment.  It is like a snake / rope where what we are seeing is not real, and we need the light to see correctly.

How Yoga Helps with Stress and Diseases that come from Stress

Many people come to yoga because of stress in their lives.  In fact, most diseases that people suffer from come from stress.  Stress is in fact a subjective phenomenon.  Stress depends on the mind of the person.  Some people are stressed very easily and become sick while some others resist and carry on.  Some level of stress is normal and very healthy, but chronic stress is when we are stressed all the time.  Yoga through breathing, relaxation, positive thinking, meditation, and diet offers many solutions for stress management.

Essential Principles to Leading a Yoga Life

Yoga life is a conscious life.  In yoga, we become conscious of our actions.  It’s not what you do that is important, but the attitude in which you do it.  In Yoga we learn to do our duty, and not just follow what the mind likes to do.  We understand the importance of cultivating positive feelings and positive relationships with others.  A yogi is very regular and follows a routine and does things always at the correct time.  At the same time the yogi is always calm and relaxed but not lazy.
