Mudra

Awareness. Introduction

In this section we discuss the importance of awareness and its meaning, because it lies at the heart of Yoga and its techniques. This is the most difficult problem for beginners: they say - be aware of - but, in reality, they do not fully understand what it means or what it should. As a result, they miss the very essence of their yoga classes.

The English word «awareness», and even more so, his Russian translation of “awareness” inaccurately convey the meaning of the original Sanskrit term. Awareness literally means “knowledge” - a condition, not a process, while the Russian word “awareness” or “awareness” suggests purposeful action and, consequently, mental strain, that is contrary to the essence of Yoga. In Yoga it, rather, is a special type of attention. Attention may be focused or peripheral, the first - a process, and the second - the state. Practice Yoga aim to overcome this duality. That is why “awareness” - a consideration (including, focused attention), understood as a condition requiring no effort.

The material energy is stronger than us, or struggle with the illusion

Материальная  энергия сильнее нас, или борьба с иллюзией

To reach the transcendent level is not so easy

If we continue to follow the spiritual practice, overcoming many obstacles and temptations, their number will only grow. If we grow spiritually, gradually drawing away from the cover of illusion, the material energy is clinging to us and does not allow to go without a fight. That’s why we must clearly understand the objective set before him in the very beginning of his spiritual path. In difficult times, our focus on the end result will help us move forward.

We should never depend on our own strength and intelligence in the fight against the material illusion, because the material energy is stronger than each of us. Instead, rely on the Lord, as Supersoul who stays in our hearts and in the heart of every living being and offers all possible assistance, when we are ready to accept. If we do not feel God’s help, this happens because of lack of faith in the Lord, who is personally watching us and helps us.

We run the risk of mouth, if you become self-reliant in an attempt to defeat lust and temptation. This is only a matter of time when we are faced with a situation which can not cope. But if we are constantly aware of the risks and remain vigilant - our attention will protect us from falling into the trap of illusion. The problem arises when we can not treat seriously, and the temptation to relax in a foolish arrogance.

Dynamics of the respiratory mechanism

There are 3 characteristic functions of breathing, movement of the ribs, sternum and diaphragm. Simultaneous action of these three movements is the basis of pranayama, yoga breathing.
