How can I coordinate my body, mind and spirit?
Body mind and spirit is already coordinated. That is how we are here, and that is why we are listening and understanding. If there is no coordination between them, we would be gone. Body will be under the ground, spirit will be somewhere else and mind s ... -

The whole commercialization of yoga is making it lose its original purpose, which is spirituality.
Commercialization has to do with people and not with yoga. Wherever there are people and there are arrangements to be done, commerce becomes a part of it. But if yoga is denied to people because they do not have money, I would say that is wrong. ... -
I have never practiced yoga, but I have always been impressed by the relaxed state of Gurus and yogis. Speaking as a Catholic, what do you say to those leaders of monotheistic religions, senior clerics in my own faith who say that yoga has its origin in Hinduism and Pantheism and being focused entirely on the physical aspect of the body can undermine Christian prayer.

Who is a yogi and what is a yogi’s way of life?
A yogi is a child. A yogi is becoming a baby again and again. If you look at a baby, from about 3 months to 3 years he does almost all the asanas. It can even teach you pranayama. You don’t need a yoga teacher if you observe a baby. Similarly, all anima ...
