Human is for God
Yoga in daily life is the essential practice. It must be integrated fully and forever, not kept as a separate exercise. Many learn the physical practice but then reject its foundational principles, like abstaining from meat. This creates a division. True yoga means unity in action and principle, not compromising for convenience or money. Observing a pure lifestyle, free from harming any being, is what elevates a human towards the divine. This is the human purpose. Some teachers and students, even in India, practice but then eat meat at home, which is inconsistent. The discipline must be exact and unwavering. It is not about religious labels but about being a true human. Those who indulge in meat and harmful actions are moving away from this goal. My disciples worldwide who live this integrity are holy. This unity is what we must uphold.
"Meat and other things must be given up."
"Only these two or three things, if we can keep them out, then we are in heaven."
