YAMAS AND NIYAMAS - MEDITATION WORKSHOP

WHAT THE YOGIS GAVE US FOR THIS TIME

Many people ask themselves the question how to start with Meditation. Meditation is the goal of all Yogic practices and the last limb of Ashtanga Yoga. But how do we get there and how do we move forward when we have established a stable Sadhana? When we start with the sacred practice of Meditation, we try different techniques and find our own way into deeper states of the mind. But why do you do it? Where do you want to go with it? For the Yogis this question was easy: enlightenment! But nowadays we often practice for our well-being, to support our worldly life or just to feel better. But Meditation practice is very powerful and changes us from within. Our layers disappear and we find ourselves to thrive in the wished way.

DIRECTING THE DEVELOPMENT

How we want to change and what kind of traits we want to develop lies in our own hands. When we don´t give our development a direction, the additional energy moves into the known channels. We might become more of what we wanted to let go. But in order to gain the most from our practice we should give our energy and our growth a direction. For that the old Yogis gave a manual, how we can move forward and strengthen our virtues, become more holy on the path.

THE TRAPS ON THE PATH

The old ones knew about the weakness of the mind and the power of illusions. Traps and hurdles on the path of enlightenment are well known and described. Even today we find that spiritual leaders sometimes turn out to be abusive and greedy, full of lies and deception. What did go wrong? Did they lose their path? The Yogic practices are powerful and help to change reality. Whether you go towards the darkness or the light is up to your free will to decide. To stay on the path of light in and offside meditation we should take a deeper look into the foundation of all spiritual growth: the golden rules, the Yamas and Niyamas.
