Hatha Yoga for Health

Having declared then that Hatha Yoga can help you towards better
health and calm your mind so that you can solve your personal
problems, I do want to stress two facts. Firstly, that the aim of
Hatha Yoga is not the acquisition of a superior muscular physique
but the discipline and the purification of the body that we may
forget our earthly shell enough to reach a state of heightened
awareness through the control of the mind. Secondly, that Hatha
Yoga is neither the easiest nor the fastest system of physical
culture to show results.

Why then Hatha Yoga for your health? Why not weight lifting, club
swinging, athletics, or even dancing? All of these will improve
the circulation, the figure, and strengthen the muscles. What has
Hatha Yoga to offer in addition to this? Simply that Hatha will
provide an extraordinary control over the body and awaken the
mind and spirit, the higher self if you like, as no purely
physical culture system could possibly do. Also, the
above-mentioned activities are beyond the capabilities of a large
section of the community, the aged, the infirm, the lame, and the
physically frail. Those activities involve violent movement
whereas Hatha Yoga is essentially a static science.

Basically one gets into a Yoga posture or asana and remains so
for as long as possible. Stress is laid on pressure of certain
organs, glands and muscles rather than on movement. When movement
is necessary in Hatha Yoga it is always gentle and graceful,
therefore anyone can benefit from Yoga regardless of age, sex,
race, walk of life, or religious belief. It is a universal
science. It can lead to more abundant living and a new awareness
of higher things through ridding your body of the pains and
diseases which drag your mind back into the earth when it wants
to wing its way upwards towards the light.

It is reported that Lord Buddha, whose philosophy is based on the
Veda from which Yoga was evolved, said that the first step on the
way to spiritual freedom and salvation is perfect physical
health. So if you are drawn towards Hatha Yoga do not be put off
by others who might tell you that you will never reach a state of
heightened consciousness by turning your body upside down or
sitting in various leg-breaking postures.

Tell them that if the blood is impure then the brain, the nerves,
the psycho-spiritual life, yes even the thoughts, cannot but be
affected. Tell them that a man cannot control his mind until his
body is made pure and healthy. Even if you do not aim at mental
discipline, and many of you I know do not, you can with
persistent practice improve your general health beyond belief.
