Are you Holistically Fit?

What is holistic fitness and why does one need it? Holistic fitness goes beyond physical fitness to attain unity of mind, body and divine spirit in order to complete our destiny, one’s life purpose, bringing greater joy to one’s life. In fact, one can be physically fit but not necessarily be holistically fit! With an open heart and mind, one is able to discover our true nature which is peaceful and compassionate, and also to discover the infinite potential of one’s brain. Each and every one of us has a part to contribute to this world to create a better planet. The place to start is with oneself. All human beings are born with a powerful brain and have a destiny to fulfill in this life time, but our brain can get tarnished by negative life experiences. However, when we have a dream, our brain is able to recover its original power, its original state of perfection. Almost everyone has some idea of what they would like to be like physically, mentally and spiritually, and if we can visualize it, feel it and be it, we can manifest it by taking right actions.Through regular practice of yoga and meditation, we are able to attain contentment and clarity in our state of being and are able to focus our minds in creating the reality of our dreams thus finding our soul’s purpose and achieving our dreams.

Love is all there is….

Love is all there is, anything else is an illusion from our karmic actions. So create space within your body and mind and open your heart, and make sure your next action is creating what you truly intended. Your thoughts and emotions are not you but yours to choose to keep or let it go. When we meditate through movement or stillness, we can see thoset houghts and feelings that arise within, keep watching. As the Chinese saying goes, if you wait onthe side of the river for long enough, all your enemies will pass.

Goal of Yoga practice

Goal of Yoga practice - Increase physical power, mind power, and brain power to attain unity in one’s state of being.

While the practice of yoga gives many physical benefits, the ultimate goal is to attain clarity in the mind so we can take right action that creates positive karma for oneself and others, so we can leave this physical world with no regret and guilt when the time comes. The clarity required to take right action means being able to see oneself as one really is and the world as it really is.

I found myself in conflict with others frequently even after practicing yoga for more than 15 years, however, the clarity finally came to me only when I could see that I was equally blind as everyone else around me. I spent many years doing the “right” thing, I thought…, yes, I was always right and so others had to be wrong and I made sure that I let them know what was wrong with their view or the way they were, and as a result, this had created a lot of pain in me and others. Through these pains, however, I have learned to see the message that I am experiencing being blind in seeing myself as I really am and that it is time to take action to train the body to let it go in recovering the lost unity, the Oneness of all beings. And from this state of being, I could see more clearly what my next action needed to be in order to create a better world for myself and others. Because I saw that the root of righteousness is violence, I learned that I must have hurt many in my old way of being all these years and now I see that I must heal, I choose to heal all that I come across and hurt no one no more.
