Practising Asanas from Vep
A yoga practice moves from stillness to dynamic movement, integrating precise alignment with collective rhythm. Begin in Śavāsana, lengthening the neck and stabilizing the lower back. Simple movements prepare the body, emphasizing synchronized group action over individual stretch. The practice progresses through leg lifts, spinal rolls, and postures like Śaśāṅkāsana, which calms fear and aids digestion. Dynamic sequences in Vajrāsana and variations like Uttānapṛṣṭhāsana strengthen the trunk and spine. A forearm Marjari variation mobilizes the thoracic spine. The session concludes with guided relaxation, allowing any comfortable position before rehydration. Synchrony and mindful breath are central throughout.
"Śaśāṅkāsana reduces the fear in our heart, the stress and fear."
"This will strengthen our whole trunk muscles. It will make the spine straight."

Pure faith can melt a rock
The human life is a precious chance to purify karma through dharma and faith. Inner purification depends on positive feelings and faith in oneself, which extends to faith in God. Without faith, nothing progresses. Lucky are those born with spiritual guidance, and liberated are those who cultivate spiritual qualities. The ultimate blessing is meeting a true Satguru. Non-duality is the path to self-realization; see all as yourself to dissolve jealousy and ego. We fail by clinging to liking and disliking, a thorny bush trapping us in suffering. To live, you must die to the ego, like a seed in the ground. Faith is the candle in darkness; with it, everything is possible, including enduring necessary karmic suffering. Doubt hardens the heart. Trust yourself; negative thoughts are your own mistake. Be like the sun, bringing light.
"Lucky are they who have got a human body, lucky are they who have got good spiritual parents."
"Where there is faith, there is God. Where there is faith, there is success. And where there is faith, there is liberation."

The Essence of Yoga in Daily Life
Yoga in daily life is the integration of spiritual discipline into every action. You must know your purpose. I taught yoga abroad and required a commitment to vegetarianism, refusing to teach those who ate meat. In India, some who never ate meat now do. Upon waking, affirm "I am a human being." Water is divine; a few drops remind you it is within all. Apply it like an injection to feel Jagadīś in your body. Do not let animals into sleeping rooms, though a cat or goat is good. Protect animals and India. Sanātana Dharma exists only in India. Many Indians abroad worship and have left meat. Practice yoga daily. Protect animals, protect India. Do not let animals into the house. The alternative to mobile confusion is to say Om when using the telephone.
"Water is Jagadīś. Jagadīś, Sarveś, Jagadīś, Bhagavān."
"The alternative is to say Oṃ. Say Om whenever you pick up the telephone."
