Basics of yoga

The human body has 11 doors. These doors are zones through which the soul departs. 2 of the doors lead to perfection. 6 lead to the soul making spirtual progress If the soul leaves the body through the other 3 then it goes through hell and does not get a human body for a long time

In Gita, in chapter 6 Lord Krishna explains the circumstances in which the soul finds it easy to advance Paramhansa Yogananda gave a detailed description and yogic interpretation of favorable circumstances

Similarly Vishnuturthji Maharaj gave his explanation on the matter also. Both are correct

The secret of the 11 doors is mentioned in some of the greatest Bhajan or spiritual poems.

This basic knowledge is a must before the reader can embark on making progress. However the modern day Guru, different religious “institutes” make fools out of the ignorant seekers and using jugglery of words and labeling capture the attention of less knowledgeable citizen

Be careful of these swindlers.

Here is an example how people can take a beautiful road of yoga and bastardize the process by giving people a Medical turn and IMPRESSIVE words like research. Sadly more recent studies show that meditation increases ego and failure rates.

The reason is obvious. The meditation was improper. The methods, the fundamentals wrong. However they will give meditation a bad name rather than confess their ignorance of yoga

I maintain yoga is beautiful and gives incredible results ONLY IF DONE PROPERLY AND DONE WITH GUIDANCE FROM A PROPER GURU
