The contemplation
Finding the right medium of contemplation
Interestingly, the notion of contemplation in yogi philosophy is that it is more complex to grasp than the almost simplistic image we have of it. It is part of a halfway point where there is neither a question of passivity nor a question of intellectualization. It is, in a sense, on the side of letting go and emotion.
Freshness
To always think new, to perceive the new brings us closer to our soul.
A new thought is like an invigorating liqueur for the soul.
Rethinking action and the need for control in our contemporary world
Do well without falling into perfectionism
To act is a central notion of yoga, and to force oneself to “do well”, in the sense of doing the best, is concomitant with it.
Develop attention and concentration
Being in the present: letting go of past and future to find oneself
Attention and concentration are two essential notions of yogi philosophy. They are intimately linked to temporality, to our ability to stay in the present, in two ways.
Meditation: free the mind
Yogic meditation
Meditation is an integral part of yoga. Called “Dhyana” in Sanskrit, it is one of the fundamental elements that make up yoga.
Breathing: a philosophy of living and letting go
The importance of good breathing
Yoga makes it a point of honor to remind us of an element that is often forgotten despite its vital role: breathing. We can go several days without eating or drinking, but only a few minutes without breathing, because breathing is the natural and essential movement that gives life.
Daily yoga: take time
Daily yoga: time to act
To enjoy the benefits of yoga, it is necessary to take the time to take care of yourself fully. Because in the philosophy of yoga, letting go is indeed an action.
The yogi philosophy: history and principles
The origins of yoga: the peaceful spirit
The oldest traces of yoga date back to around 3000 BC. In the 1920s, representations of figures in positions appearing to be yoga postures were found in the ruins of the city of Mohenjo-Daro, located in present-day Pakistan.
