Yoga in practice - recognizing the Guru

In your yoga practice once challenged a conviction? Have you ever your belief system on the head? For children or young adults, to see a decline as a role model, is painful, but adults base their beliefs on decades of experience. Let us look for solutions to keep our integrity intact.

Recognize the guru within. If you practice yoga on a solid basis for more or less time, you start to hear a voice from inside. There will always be a point in life when our guru, Swami or teacher yoga is not there for advice.

This is a critical point where we must seek answers from within. There is nothing wrong with finding another yoga teacher, but we're not as young and impressionable as we were. When we were young, we want to partner, and that the risk of psychological manipulation.

Not in the light of youth, but the need to belong and find meaning in life, could be abused by a teacher who does not have your interests at heart. Therefore, it would be prudent to search for the guru of your own being. Each of us has the ability to self-realization state.

There is some room for discussion on this point. Yoga In some quarters it is an enlightened guru is the only one who can self-knowledge (Atma Jnana) to go to his supporters. If this occurs, each of us, our lives have to find a guru lit with a pure heart.

Have you ever met a perfect guru, Swami, or a yoga teacher? If so, you managed to answer one of the few enlightened people who live on this planet at this time. It really is like finding a needle in a haystack. "

There is a simple way to go, and it is based on logical reasoning. Who knows more about you than someone else? The answer is: you and God. Atman Jnana literally means knowledge of self or soul.

You can find this knowledge through meditation, self-study, prayer, pranayama, study, application of the principles of yoga in the sense of everyday life.

It is true that a person is not mentally balanced, will not be able to achieve Atma Jana. For example: If we spend our lives doing harm to others and other creatures, our level of consciousness is "handicapped".

Is unfortunate, because the first Yama (restraint), we learn is "Ahimsa" than most of us forget quite often. If we make a constructive step forward, it is to avoid harming others with our words, thoughts and deeds.

Finally, if we make a mistake in our actions, or failure to do we do our best to catch up, forgive us, learn from our mistakes and continue without harming others.
