Yoga has simply meant moral control of thought .This definition has lost its significance to modern understanding of asanas .
The simple truth of life that no matter what we do we are always in the state of communion with the lord is what yoga actually meant .However to the changing times it was lost to the way we look .
The physical beauty is all that people think of yoga .
Yoga also teaches you many other things like independence .You may ask or feel how ?
Well the answer is that yoga practise is actually practising to be yourself .To be you , which means to be able to stand up for your view point and to be able to speak up your mind .If your mind is governed by morality or greed let it be .The ability to accept it and work with it is yoga .
As a yoga instructor the job is to be able to make people believe that no matter what you do its okay if you feel low of yourself .This is because you are looking at yourself from point of view of somebody else .And the fact is that somebody else is not you .
Sometimes people come up and share some of the personal experiences that leave you devastated also making you think that how can any human bear so much of pain .But somehow whaen you return to the class you see actually those people alive .They are not wrong .They are living just under pain .
Asnas are good to remove the physical cause but not the moral or philosophicial cause of the pain .
Falling in love or making love before marriage is not wrong but often this is considered wrong .
Sometime you find females phobic to relationships ,marriage as a custom is also Yoga .Joining is yoga but never have people felt that way.
Our bodies or morals go out of shape in a life .We are often running towards or away from something .In all these cases we find people doing yoga .Yoga is mergence .Merging with your goal or desire is Yoga . So technically run ning is also not wrong .You are just doing yoga of some other kind.The mere difference of realization about the act you are doing is yoga .But often yoga is restricted to asanas and then yoga looses its essence just to the physical nature of human mind .Whereas the actual essence of the yoga is to make you spiritual .The place where you have love for all the beings both animate or inanimate .
