The aim of our life philosophy is the realisation of the human potential by opening one's awareness to that which is usually dormant in oneself.
When one experiences the joy of being in the present or in the Self, it leads to experiencing the underlying Unity of All. Yoga gives us various paths and practices that lead to this realisation.
It can be by adopting the selfless attitude of Karma yoga (service without expectations), the worship and service of Bhakti yoga (devotion and surrender) or detached analysis of Jnana yoga (wisdom without attachment).
Hatha yoga gives us the practical advice on how to purify our body and the body's energy system. Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads or Patanjali Yoga Sutras point us to the inner wisdom which we have the potential to discover in ourselves by disciplining the mind.

Quote of the Day
Gurudev O. Sharma
The difference between intuition and reasoning is that, while reasoning is a gradual process, intuition comes all of a sudden without planning, like a flash of light.
By means of this flash, you come to understand the whole problem at once.
In intuition solutions get revealed to you.
We can say that reasoning concludes and intuition reveals.
