Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The practice of yoga provides many physical benefits, but its core is the integration of all the layers of life. It is a science of balanced living, a path for realizing full human potential.

#2

The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga program will raise your level of physical vitality, clear emotional blockages from your heart, and awaken your joyfulness and enthusiasm for life.

#3

The Western scientific model of a person is primarily physical, and it focuses on the material aspect of life. However, this approach can be extremely effective in the short term relief of symptoms. It rarely promotes a deeper understanding of life, and the side effects of medications are often limiting.

#4

The game of hide-and-seek that spirit plays with us is the process of uncovering the layers that mask our essential unbounded nature. These layers are called koshas, and they are divided into three primary divisions: a physical body, a subtle body, and a causal body.

#5

Your physical body is just one part of your extended body, which is the environment around you. Every sound, sensation, sight, flavor, and aroma you ingest from the environment influences your body and mind.

#6

You are an environmentalist because you recognize that the rivers flowing through the valleys and those flowing through your veins are intimately connected. The breath of an old-growth forest and your most recent breath are intertwined.

#7

The mind, intellect, and ego are the components of the subtle body. The mind is the repository of sensory impressions, and it cycles through different states of consciousness. The intellect discriminates, and the ego seeks control and approval.

#8

The causal body, or the domain of spirit, is the underlying field of molecules that makes up your physical body and the field of thoughts called the subtle body. It gives rise to your thoughts, feelings, dreams, desires, and memories.

#9

The Seven Spiritual Laws of Yoga is a program that aims to shift your awareness. It provides the technology to support this journey, whether you are new to yoga or have been practicing for some time.

#10

The eight branches of yoga help you shift your internal reference point from constricted to expanded consciousness. As you move from local to nonlocal awareness, your internal reference point spontaneously transforms from ego to spirit, which allows you to see the bigger picture when facing any challenge.

#11

The questions you ask yourself are directing your choices in life. When you begin to recognize that your essential nature is unbounded and eternal, life becomes joyful, meaningful, and carefree.
