Top 3 Yogi's Secrets for Health and
Happiness
By Carl
Cholette
For hundreds of years, the yogi's have been
known to know the secrets for health, peace and happiness. In this
short, but informative article, I will briefly describe 3 of these
secrets with you.
Let's get started:
Secret#1: You are not your physical body.
The Yogis believe, you know, that the real Man
is not his body. They know that the immortal "I" of which each
human being is conscious to a greater or lesser degree, is not the body
which it merely occupies and uses. They know that the body is but as a
suit of clothes which the Spirit puts on and off from time to time. They
know the body for what it is, and are not deceived into the belief that
it is the real Man. But while knowing these things, they also know that
the body is the instrument in which, and by which the Spirit manifests
and works. They know that the fleshly covering is necessary for Man's
manifestation and growth in this particular stage of his development.
They know that the body is the Temple of the Spirit. And they,
consequently, believe that the care and development of the body is as
worthy a task as is the development of some of the higher parts of Man,
for with an unhealthy and imperfectly developed physical body, the mind
cannot function properly, nor can the instrument be used to the best
advantage by its master, the Spirit.
Secret#2: You are not your mind.
You need to realize the superiority of the
"I" or "real self" over the mind, as well as over
the body; the fact that the mind is not the "I" or "real
self", but is merely an instrument for the expression of the
"I"; the fact that the "I" is master of the mind, as
well as of the body; that the "I" is behind all thought; that
the "I" can set aside for consideration the sensations,
emotions, passions, desires, and the rest of the mental phenomena, and
still realize that it, the "I," is apart from these mental
manifestations, and remains unchanged, real and fully existent; that the
"I" can set aside any and all of its mental tools and
instruments, as "not I" or "not real self" things,
and still consciously realize that after so setting them aside there
remains something--itself--the "I" which cannot be set aside
or taken from; that the "I" is the master of the mind, and not
its slave.
Secret#3: You are "one with
everything"
To be truly happy and healthy, you need to be
aware of "The Oneness of All". You need to bear in mind the
Universality of Life. All of the Universe is alive, vibrating and
pulsating with life and energy and motion. There is nothing dead in the
Universe. Life is everywhere, and always accompanied by intelligence.
There is no such thing as a dead, unintelligent Universe. Instead of
being atoms of Life floating in a sea of death, we are atoms of Life
surrounded by an ocean of Life, pulsating, moving, thinking, living.
Every atom of what we call Matter is alive. It has energy or force with
it, and is always accompanied by intelligence and life. Look around us
as we will; at the animal world; at the plant world; yes, even at the
world of minerals and we see life, life, life; all alive and having
intelligence. When we are able to bring this conception into the realm
of actual consciousness; when we are able not only to intellectually
accept this fact, but to even go still further and _feel_ and be
conscious of this Universal Life on all sides, then are we well on the
road to attaining the Cosmic Consciousness.
There you have it, 3 Yogi's secrets for health
and happiness! Start meditating on these 3 universal truth and will
begin to see some positive change in life.
