Yoga - Union of souls

He woke up right before the alarm rang. The new routine had gifted him some blessings. Having a quality sleep and waking up early in the morning without having regret was one of them. While playing football, improvement in coordination between his eyes and legs was miraculous. 'Is Yoga really a magic?' He exclaimed sometimes. Soon after he took part in Yoga Summer course organized by Yoga Vidya Niketan, he realized it's a lifestyle that everyone should follow and the aftereffects would be magical.

He remembered on the very first day he was able to enjoy only relaxation position. Every other posture was too much for him. But the magicians - his yoga teachers helped him and the entire bunch of disciples enjoy even the most difficult yoga postures. They taught the art of feeling the sensation of 'Chaitanyasana' in every yoga postures. Teachers were motherly who with affection and care enabled them to control their body mind and soul with the techniques of Yoga.

By enrolling the course he knew he was paving the stepping stone to be a yogi - according to Swami Vivekananda - "who, in the midst of the greatest silence and solitude, finds the intensest activity, and in the midst of the intensest activity finds the silence and solitude of the desert."

The kriya demonstration session he attended in Yoga Vidya Niketan struck him with amazement. There he could find a secret door to his soul through meditation. The youngest person he met there was the founder of Yoga Vidya Niketan - PadmaShri Yogacharya Sadashiv Nimbalkar. What a personality! How perfect was the saying 'Someone's age is defined by his own mind', he thought. Even at the age of 94, he himself felicitated other yoga teachers, delivered speach. Mind-blowing!

Everytime a senior techer visited their yoga center students got something new to learn.
The last day of Yoga practices was held in a different  location combining individual centers. It was like a journey of a water drop from a pond to a to a river to an ocean. A lot of people were flowing in the same direction of Nirvana as if a stream of water flowing to the great ocean. Everyone became part of the flow, not a single drop stood out.

He experienced from his own life that Yoga was a single shot answer to a healthy body, a peaceful mind and a free soul.
