A person who is limited to a vision of <em>yoga<\/em> in only one category, is unlikely following the right yogic direction. While modern styles of &#8220;<em>ha\u1e6dha<\/em>&#8211;<em>yoga<\/em>&#8221; sin even more, they often lead away from the main yogic goals, they are feeding people&#8217;s ego instead of giving liberation from it. They create confusion in the people&#8217;s minds, instead of freeing oneself from it. And this mass situation is paradoxical, as often what is called <em>yoga<\/em>, on the contrary, leads away from the yogic path. <em>Yoga<\/em> is the integrity of own nature, and how you will come to this and call it is a secondary importance think. It is no coincidence that the term <em>up\u0101ya<\/em>\u00a0can be translated both, as a method, as a ruse or a trick.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is an interesting book in Hindi published by Gorakhnath-mandir (in Gorakhpur), its title is \u0917\u094b\u0930\u0915\u094d\u0937\u0928\u093e\u0925 \u0914\u0930 \u0928\u093e\u0925 \u0938\u093f\u0926\u094d\u0927 \/ Gorak\u1e63an\u0101th aur n\u0101th siddh.
