Art of Yoga - Finding The True Essence Within You

Any action done with beauty and purity, and in complete harmony of body, mind, and soul is art. In this way, art elevates the artist. As Yoga fulfills the essential need of art, it is an art.

Practicing yoga in an artistic way let you turn your attention to the artistic interpretation of body, mind and soul.

The Sanskrit word “yoga” comes from the word “yuj” which means “to unite.” Yoga is the union of the individual with the whole of existence, also commonly referred to as self-realization or enlightenment.

Yoga let us discover the nature of the cosmos within us

Yoga also refers to the inner technology that will lead one to this experience – a technology formulated from rigorous inner observation, by ancient yogis over thousands of years. With their extraordinary perception and mastery over every aspect of the human mechanism, these great yogis delved into their own systems, uncovering the nature of the cosmos – a macrocosm of the human system.

It's time to deeply discover your body, mind and soul through yoga at the 3-Day Art of Yoga Retreat with Master Joyful Mukesh.

There are eight stages of yoga that will be introduced and shared with you in our retreat.

1. Yama (universal moral commandments);
2. Niyama (self-purification by discipline);
3. Asana (posture);
4. Prânayama (rhythmic control of the breath);
5. Pratyähara (withdrawal and emancipation of the mind from the domination of the senses and exterior objects);
6. Dhârana (concentration);
7. Dhyana (meditation);
8. Samadhi (a state of super-consciousness brought about by profound meditation, in which the individual aspirant (sädhaka) becomes one with the object of his meditation- Paramatmã or the Universal Spirit.

Yama and Niyama control the yogi’s passions and emotions and keep you in harmony with your fellow man. Ásanas keep the body healthy and strong and in harmony with nature. Finally, the yogi becomes free of body consciousness. You conquer the body and render it a fit vehicle for the soul. The first three stages are the outward quests (bahiranga sadhanã).

The next two stages, Pränäyäma and Pratyähara, teach the aspirant to regulate breathing, and thereby control the mind. This helps to free the senses from the thraldom of the objects of desire. These two stages of Yoga are known as the inner quests (antaranga sädhana).

Dharana, Dhyâna, and Samadhi take the yogi into the innermost recesses of your soul.
