YOGA AND STRESS: DR. SHRINIWAS KASHALIKAROne of the causes of failure in TOTAL STRESS MANAGEMENT; is; reducing the concept of yoga; to mere physical postures, breathing techniques, kriyas and dietary control. This trivialized yoga; is hyped, sold and purchased; for petty 'gains' and/or sickening gratification of ego!
This way we cannot manage the individual and global stress; which is in the form of deception, deceit, delirium, delusion, despondency, despair, defeat, degeneration, degradation, destruction and devastation!
However; we need not condemn others or ourselves for this.
In stead; we should use this great opportunity; to explore, understand, appreciate, practice and propagate yoga which is a process of evolving and practicing;
1. The perspective of global unity and harmony,
2. The thoughts and policies of global welfare,
3. Motivation and concern for global welfare,
4. Mutually gratifying and satisfying instincts
5. Activities conducive to individual and universal blossoming;
through; NAMASMARAN; the other measures, procedures and techniques (including those in hathayoga); being adjuvant.
