NITHYA YOGA🔗

Raghupati Yogi is the inspiration behind the creation of the new yoga system that I am introducing to you all. It is called Nithya Yoga.

We are bringing forth all of the basic truths of yoga as originally revealed by Patanjali. I don't mean only from Patanjali's verbal language. Everyone has that from the Yoga Sutra. Nithya Yoga is being delivered from Patanjali's body language. It is the body language that can be expressed only by a person who has experienced the inner space of Patanjali, the consciousness of Patanjali. We are trying to express yoga according to Patanjali's body language, according to Patanjali's inner space. We call that experience Nithya Yoga.

The purpose of Nithya Yoga is to experience bliss. With Nithya Yoga, your body will start working towards bliss, experiencing bliss and expressing bliss. With Nithya Yoga, the capacity to experience bliss will explode in your inner space. The capacity to radiate bliss will start happening to your body. Your bio-memory will be rewired for bliss.

Everyone does experience bliss. In some part of our life we are experiencing bliss otherwise we cannot be alive. Unless we experience bliss once in a while we can't keep our body alive. We can't keep running. The very truth that we are alive proves that some time, in some part of our life, we are experiencing bliss and joy. The problem is that our system is not prepared to stay in that bliss space. Our system is not ready to radiate that same experience continuously. Nithya Yoga prepares our body to experience, stay in and radiate the inner bliss, the eternal bliss. The whole purpose of Nithya Yoga is enlightenment; un-clutching and enlightenment.

Nithya Yoga is not simply just to achieve physical healing or physical health. Even if you are physically healthy and live for one thousand years, what is the use if you have not achieved enlightenment? After one thousand years you will still be the same person and you will feel dissatisfied in the same ways if your consciousness is not expanded or if you have not had the experience of enlightenment.

If you have lived one thousand years and not grown spiritually, there will be no other difference in your inner space. Besides, one thousand years is too much. The world has become so small. Even being her for thirty years, I feel that I have been staying here for a very long time. There is not much to do here. What will you do - same house, same car, same spouse and same routine day in and day out. For how long will you do that and feel fulfilled?

If you don't have the inner experience, life will become boring. You all saw today how excited and happy I am to see this hill that looks like Arunachala. Some devotees came to see Bhagwan Ramana Maharishi. He is a great, enlightened Master who lives in Tiruvannamalai (the place where Arunachala stands). When these devotees came to see him, they were excited to see the Arunachala hill. They told him, 'Master, what a wonderful place! What a beautiful place. It is so peaceful here!' Then in a very nice way, Bhagwan says, 'Stay here for one week and this idea will disappear'.

You will be shocked to know that Ramana Maharishi himself expressed so much devotion to that hill. He composed at least one thousand hymns in praise of that hill. He describes the whole hill as an embodiment of Lord Shiva. He was such a great devotee of that hill and here he is saying, 'Stay here for One week and all this idea will disappear'.

The reason for why this happens is that our mind is not capable of staying in bliss or excitement. Our system is not capable of staying in that high excitement. We have neither trained it nor is it capable. Through Nithya Yoga we train seekers to not only experience the bliss, but also to stabilize the experience in them and continuously radiate that experience in their life.

The purpose of Nithya Yoga is to help people to un-clutch and experience the eternal bliss. Physical healing may be the side effect but it is not the purpose. Let us understand deeply that yoga cannot be reduced to a mere physical exercise for health and meditation cannot be reduced to techniques meant only to give you a little peace. No! They both have a deeper and more sacred meaning and purpose.

Yoga is for much more than just physical health. Physical health is one side effect happening through yoga. In the same way, meditation is not just for mental wellbeing. Mental wellbeing is one side effect that happens with meditation. Yoga and meditation cannot be reduced just for physical or mental health. They are meant for a deeper purpose totally. They are meant to help you experience a different space. It is meant to transform the body and mind to experience eternal bliss, nithya ananda.

We are bringing this truth to life through Nithya Yoga, this new, or I can say, the oldest system of yoga on planet earth. I can't say it is a new system. It is the oldest system as Patanjali originally expressed it.
