The Joy of Vegetarianism PDF  | Print |
Written by Dharmpuri   

 

The evolution of human kind.

Love is the most subtle and the strongest force in the universe
Becoming vegetarian is a journey through love. It is love that makes us human and the human heart is capable of infinite love.

In Yoga the name of heart chakra is Anahat Chakra which means boundless and infinite. It is said by the great Yogis that the heart is the seat of the Atma – Pure, unchanging, infinite consciousness.

Love is given not taken. We have so much love in our hearts but we don’t know how to direct it. As we develop our human consciousness we learn to direct our love to more and more until we can encompass All with our love. The great divine incarnations in the history of our planet have been examples of how to love all equally.

Shank Prakshalana Hatha Yoga Kriya PDF  | Print |
Written by Dharmpuri   

Shank Prakshalana is one of the six Hatha Yoga Kriyas. It is a very strong purification technique as it cleans the whole digestive system from the mouth to the anus.

"Shank" means shell and "Prakshalana" means cleansing. Shells have a lot of curves in them and in this way are similar to our intestines. Try to pour water into a shell.
