Ahimsa- non-violence; first humility, which means diligently and diligently living and always acting in such a manner as to bring good and not cause harm to others. This is not a proposition of vain directness, but rather, that ideal life, which, in the words of the Buddha, is “like a soft wind that sweeps past.” The concept of ahimsi is extremely comprehensive; it includes not being harmed by the thoughts and feelings of others, their bodies and minds; non-violence in actions, and in promotion and thoughts.
What is Life? Chimera and zhorstok gra without a mark? Chaotic collapse of unreasonable particles in the open air? How can we find out who is the “beneficiary” of everything that is experienced and everything that is dreamed? As we know ourselves here, we understand our own buttya (cogito ergo sum) - it’s not just for that reason? And what connects us with other sources of the world? How can I lie down in my future, how will I lie down to them, to other origins? Ahimsa. The concept of ahimsi/non-violence is further supported by this question. What to rob (or not to rob) people of a hundred hundred percent of others - merchandising about this connection with akhimsa can date the deed of clarity and lead further. This is most often the first step on the road until the eternal truths are learned. Learn to appreciate Life - your own and someone else's; Understand that the importance of skin life creates a greater burden for your life and for others.
Vedic Knowledge, recorded in the ancient sacred books of India, in the Veda Shastra, and was revealed long before the Buddhist period, Zoroastrianism, Judaism and, more importantly, before Christianity and Islam, teach mercy, in addition to the principle ahimsi is the ethical basis of human life . Vegetarianism is one of the warehouse ahimsi. “It is impossible to remove meat without harming the living essence,” says the “Manu-Samhita,” the ancient collection of laws for mankind, “let’s not let the skin be destroyed by eating meat.” In another section of “Manu-samhita” (5.49) there is a message: “Remembering the way in which meat is obtained, and the cruelty of keeping living creatures in captivity that are killed, people must wait “Be encouraged by living in the flesh of meat.” “Manu-smriti” also says (6.60): “The same one who does not spare life from life deserves salvation.” "Rig Veda" (10.87.16) punished the queen to commit sin or - as it goes without saying - to severely punish a person who "eats the flesh of a horse or other creature." “Ayurveda” (12.32) says: “Do not dare to vikorist the body given to you by God for killing the creatures of Yogo - some people, creatures or other.” The Padma Purana says: “People, sense the essence of righteousness and follow it: do not force on others what you do not want, so that they may reward you.” The “Mahabharata” (an epic poem that is most respected for the duty of singing to the world) has a careless order that prevents the slaughter of animals. The axis of action from them: “He who grows his meat by eating the flesh of other creatures condemns himself to suffering, in which body he will not be born”; “The world has no cruel and selfish people, not those who increase their flesh by eating the flesh of innocent creatures”; “Anyone who wants to live a long time, preserving beauty, a strong memory and good health, as well as physical, moral and spiritual strength, is obliged to give up on creatures.”
Make sure you don’t blame anyone less than those who eat meat. No less blame lies with those who take part in the slaughter of living meat, sanction it, trim the carcass, buy, sell the meat and finally serve it on the table. Only those who do not take part in these activities (not partly the “Lancer”) can be respected by people who follow the principles of ahimsi.
Whether life is a mess today, the remains of the body are nothing but the shell of the soul, so it seems. According to the Vedic texts, there are 8 million 400 thousand types of life, although, insanely, some of them are considered to be more high-grade, lower than others. Prote zhorstoke povdzhennya s be-yak types of super-refer to the principle of ahimsi.
Ahimsa also conveys vegetarianism. This is a way of thinking, this is the main choice in life. For example, those who have chosen ahimsa as their principle of life, also do not skimp on their skin, which is detrimental to their clothing, are convinced that they are working for the slaughter of creatures, etc.
Tsikavo, long before St. Francis was recognized by Europeans as the patron saint of creatures, the sages of India recognized the presence of the soul in absolutely all living things! Confirm that the eternal soul passes from body to body, from essence to essence, until, finally, it is infused into the form of a human being, which may create the knowledge of the Absolute Truth. Tim himself ends with the people of death. The soul takes away the chance to turn to the kingdom of the Lord. The fact that Ahimsa was followed by many ascetics of Christianity, including the Orthodox, is dedicated to the topic in this section of Ahimsa.
“Bhagavad-Gita,” the main sacred scripture of the Hindus and the most wise book given to humanity, says that the soul is the source of intelligence and vital force in the body of the skin’s living essence. It is well known to the Vedas that there is a living reality that, being at the lowest level of development, humankind gradually rises in evolutionary gatherings until the time of death takes away the human body. Only the soul that has acquired the body of a person can increase its knowledge of God and be transferred to the spiritual light at the moment of death. To achieve this, people must obey all the basic laws of the world. Otherwise, killing creatures enhances the evolution of knowledge, and killing will inevitably suffer from the legacy of this sin.
Lord Sri Krishna says in the Gita (9.26): “Give Me a leaf, a flower, or some water with love and devotion, and I will accept them.” Otherwise, if a person eats non-vegetarian food or does not offer vegetarian food to the Lord, it causes bad karmic inheritance. In another place, “Giti” confirms that the hedgehog in goodness, which is recommended for humans, is a vegetarian hedgehog, and the hedgehog in ignorance is animal, slaughtered (amedhyam - “underdeveloped, unsuitable for hedgehogs”). Vegetables, cereals, legumes, fruits and milk together with dairy products - this is what people are supposed to eat, since it is so punished by the Almighty Himself.
The chronicler Bardesan (2-3 centuries AD), who came from the Babylonian lands, describes the way in which the Brahmins lived in India even in recent times: “Living in the food of something else (besides vegetarian products), so just like that a dot of cooked hedgehog, is considered by them as the height of uncleanness and dishonor... Their hedgehog consists of rice, wheat bread, fruits and herbs.”
Indeed, for the high spiritual and moral development of marriage, ancient India was a land in which a significant world did not deserve the harvesting of meat and the cruelty of war with animals was suppressed. Based on the religious views of the Hindus, followers of the Bhagavat-Dharmi, all creatures, birds and fish are respected by the younger brothers of people, the remains of their fathers are the same Almighty Lord (Indian Veda confirms the monotony Izm, in contrast to other thoughts, even all girls are like gods) - these are servants The One Supreme Lord (Vishnu). That is why there is an order about the humane treatment of animals. All living things on earth share one great homeland. This principle of ahimsi (non-violence) was advocated and voted by all the saints and sages of India, as well as other wise cultures of ancient times. Ahimsa is both negligence and positive destruction. In other words, this is a matter of bringing before the world, as is necessary for the replenishment of the soul. Although there are fewer vegetarians in India these days, there were still approximately 700 million people in India who were vegetarians.
In the Sanskrit Vedic Scriptures, the principle of humane treatment of creatures is expressed in the words sarva-bhuta-hita ("kindness to all its essence"), in contrast to more general morality - loka-hita ("kindness of a human being"). The first principle naturally includes another one, which does not apply to it. The Vedas directly say that those people who commit violence against innocent creatures will be punished after death. Creatures killed by people will be collected by the next generation. The word mamsa in Sanskrit means “meat” (a Russian word and similar). Mam-sa literally means “I (im) to you, (and then you join me),” and it was part of such a saying: mam sah khadati mamsah. These words were punished to be uttered at the hour of slaughtering the creature - since he could not live without meat, he had to slaughter the creature himself, saying such words. This word “mamsa” captures the whole essence of meat. The idea of karmi is driven by the necessity of humane treatment of creatures. And the one who eats meat - presumably if he does not slaughter the creature himself - also becomes an accomplice to evil and will be liable to suffer a particularly severe punishment from both the murderer, the butcher and the meat seller.
The saints and sages of India worked richly for the protection of creatures and awareness of their rights. The stench, in fact, far outstripped the moral awareness of Europeans and peoples of other continents. These ideas, which try to convey to the knowledge of the common humanity of our era the last three hundred years, have already been on the agenda of the people of sacred India for nearly a thousand years. The first sadhus (devotees), who came from India to the farthest lands, used to say for an hour: “Begin killing the meat (that is meat, give the sanction for killing animals for your life), and only after this truth and possible discussions on the deep nutrition of spiritual and religious philosophy " Today's advanced civilization and official Christian religion do not recognize that creatures have souls, but it is not easier for creatures - they are mercilessly slaughtered in slaughterhouses in the thousands and millions, so that people And (at the center of the world) life was “pleasant and joyful.” Is it possible that at the moment of death in the eyes of these creatures there is no expression of grief, fear, or pain? The signs appeared to them and it seemed like the stench was “soulless”? Those who sanction such a massacre can only be called soulless.
Vaishnava Dharma will not want to bring back the religious animal sacrifices that were practiced in ancient times. In his instructions to King Pracinabarhi, who was choked with luscious sacrifices, the sage Narada Rishi, one of the great Vaishnava Readers, revealed the karmic inheritance of meat: “O ruler, marvel at the heavens - and you will find creatures there , you sacrificed them - without pity will sound like the murderers. Wonder - all these creatures are counting on your death, in order to pay you for the suffering, the task to them. As long as your days are ruined, the stinks will attack you with anger, pierce your body with slimy horns and take hold of your meat” (“Srimad Bhagavatam”, 4.25.7-8).
It is clear that we are not bringing all these hostile quotations from the sacred scriptures of India here for the sake of bitterness. Fear is a strong threat, but it is impossible to force someone to accept ahimsa. Particularly on the right side of the skin - continue to chew and eat the meat far away, or else still get stuck. Let us step by step, at will, or go out on the paths of enlightenment.
True adherents of Vedic knowledge never changed their commitment to vegetarianism. It is significant that the idea of universal mercy occupies a central place in Vedic literature, in terms of ethical value. Keep in mind that a person is obliged to bear in mind that in all living organisms there is a single living organism, regardless of the fact that the soul is “fidgeted”. Those who do not know how to teach the little brothers of life, do not understand that the essence of life is the cob - and for such people it is important to pay attention to humanity. One of the greatest ethical ideals of the Vedas was the desire to do good to all living beings. This ideal, as before, is one of the main commandments of the Vedic religion.
Sanskrit manuscripts confirm that in certain episodes of the soul, transformed into the bodies of creatures, they achieved salvation through rebirth. This is where we show how high the level of equality of people and creatures reached in the eyes of the Vedas. Every other secular religion does not deprive the souls of creatures of the right to reach the Kingdom of God! Similar to the Vedic sacred writings, the soul of a creature reaches liberation if the creature is worthy of the friendly status of the great saint of the Lord. Such items are not used often, and thus acquire special significance. The most recent example is from the life of Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the last life of Lord Krishna Himself from hundreds of years ago in India (Bengal). It seems that the hour of pilgrimage to the Holy India of Shri Chaitanya is approaching through the forest of Jharikhand. “Shri Chaitanya-Charitamrita”, a Bengali sacred text of high spiritual poetry, composed by Krishnadasa Kaviraj Goswami and dating back to the 16th century, reveals that at this hour, walking through the forests, Shri Chaitan Ya, embraced by divine Love, and began to dance. And then the elephants, tigers, deer and birds came up to this song and began to dance together with Him. So great was the divine love of Shri Chaitanya, who spawned the voiceless creatures to realize the glory of the Almighty - every one of mine. Dali has a beautiful writer “Chatanya-Chartamrit”, it was said, the vsi tnvarini zgoda Buli Buli Vryatovanі, the Tobto is too much in the nestyle in the new TILALS of the MATERIAL SVITI, I joined the kingdom of God.
“Chaitanya-Charitamrita” has another very good story about Shri Chaitanya and the dog tamed by Him. The manuscript reveals how the people who came to bow down to Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, told the dog to lie down on His feet. The Great Teacher and Avatar of Krishna gave the creature the pulp of coconut peas. “Praise the holy name of Krishna! - Chaitanya said to the dog, and he said loudly and expressively: Krishna! Krishna!” Such was the spiritual power and mercy of Shri Chaitanya – that all creatures could spontaneously realize the Name of God. The text tells about those who have received the great blessing of the soul of this creature to emerge from the light of suffering and to embrace the spiritual light (Vaikuntha). Do not mean here that “Sri Chaitanya-Charitamitrta” is recognized by the Gaudiya-Vaishnava part of the Vedic canon as manifesting the very essence of the Vedas - Divine Love. (This is one of these great books of the Goudiya Shastras, which continue and explain the cob Vedas (Sruti), as well as the Smritas - Purani, Pancharatra, Itihasi etc.)
Thus, the Vedic Dharma and the Vaishnava tradition, in essence, directly voice ahimsa and spiritual jealousy of all living essences. How can you raise your hand to the lions and elephants, who dance in spiritual bliss, or to the dog, which has become a source of understanding the Name of God and going to His Kingdom?! And how can you save the lives of those who are the same as you yourself want to live, want to give up your Blog? If you are going through your evolution of knowledge, don’t forget to tell and don’t understand yet what your eternal good lies in. But only those who follow ahimsa can be affirmed that you truly respect the ears of God’s creatures as equals and love them.
Undoubtedly, it is also unkind to drive in any growth. Don't kill anyone unnecessarily. Roslins can also feel the pain, the stench haunts their minds, and experience the past in their own way. However, people cannot eat in the wind, so they have to choose the less of two evils. It is said in Shastra: jivo jivasya jivanam, one living essence lives for the sake of others, and that is inevitable. For Vaishnavas (people who are devotees of Lord Vishnu), the main problem of this problem is this: only those who are sanctified by the glance of the Lord survive, which is initially associated with Yoma. And Lord Vishnu in the Shastras (the original Scriptures of the Earth) tells us that Yoma can only taste pure vegetarian food, and not meat, fish or eggs, along with other products that are considered unclean in the Vedas in the eyes of God Himself. Therefore, Vaishnavi, who preaches vegetarian hedgehogs to God, is not responsible for killing the weeds, since Vishnu blesses such pure hedgehogs as Vishna preaches. And since you can completely support your life as a vegetarian, without suffering from the more guilty creatures - creatures, then why not indulge in such a rank? Vegetarian food is healthier, less meaty, and has no scientific evidence. Is it really bad to live with the least pain for others and the least harm for yourself?
Ahimsa is one of the central principles of yoga, Jainism, Buddhism and impersonality of other religious, philosophical and practical systems. In the eight-stage yosi of Patanjali, ahimsa goes up to the yama stage, which is one of the fifth stages, next to asteya, sateya, aparagraha and brahmacharya. The essence of ahimsi lies in the unforeseen harm of any living essence, in the form of killing, suffering and primus in three planes - thoughts, words and actions. In the most extreme cases, ahims dictates vegetarianism, the appearance of germs from the skin, and a variety of special devices that prevent the rapid death of other living creatures. hundred These, for example, are special graters for lamps that can cross the fires that fall into the fires, and the waters of the Jains, with which they sweep the road in front of them, so as not to offend anyone. In more mild cases, ahimsa seeks to avoid mindless violence and orders one to organize one’s life so as to inflict less suffering on those who are absent.
Ahimsa be kind to yourself
Who is responsible for the establishment of the ahimsi principle? Mostly to yourself. Health and security are all necessary and at the same time a fundamental need and an invisible right of every person. That way of living that poses a threat to one’s health and well-being is a violation of the principle of ahimsi for oneself. How can one discover such a way of living? First of all, these are bad things, such as chicken, drinking, gluttony, addiction to drugs, improper eating, failure to follow the rules of hygiene, etc. estranged. Thirdly, there is a lot of re-construction to extract self-sacrifice from different options. For example, the same Christian cry should be turned on the other cheek, if they hit one at a time, and the broken principle of ahimsi in relation to oneself. A mentally healthy and adequate person cannot, for any good reason, tolerate violence against himself or sacrifice himself for the sake of his fantasy.
Ahimsa before other people
Ahimsa, like other people, manifests itself as non-violence in thoughts, in words, and in actions. This means that it is recommended to arrange your life in such a manner as to inflict a minimum of suffering on other people, as well as to avoid the primus, the imposition of powerful thoughts and the destruction of the world. Moreover, the primus is understood as a direct threat, and manipulation. The method of achieving one’s goals through deception does not seem so terrible, but it still results in the destruction of ahimsi. Because, without being deceived and drilled, a person would have made a completely different choice. Children put the blame. The child’s peculiarity has not yet been formed, and the fathers themselves are burdened with the burden of their future specialness, forced for the supreme purposes of force and manipulation (within reasonable limits) until the children are not damaged by ahimsi.
Ahimsa for creatures
Ahimsa when animals appear in the vicinity of slaughtered hedgehogs. If the decision about switching to vegetarianism has not been made, then the replacement of the slaughter of animals in today’s minds will still be a singing world for the ancient ahimsi. Whose sense is the law about the kosher slaughter of thinness. A Jew can eat only the flesh of animals that do not show signs of calcification, and those killed by cutting the carotid arteries with a special, especially sharp knife without a sharp notch on the blade. And this is the Jewish saying: the more God-fearing people are, the sharper they are for shchit. So far, in living nature, yoga recommends adhering to the principle of minimizing the possible control of harm, be it a mosquito, a plant or a creature.
Inheritance of stastosuvannya akhimsi
What are the inheritances of the untrimmed and untrimmed ahimsi? A simple fact: in social circles, the most active and popular participants are those people who were not leaders in school, but rather were in the middle class. And those who occupy leading positions in adolescents tend to lose both their status and their profitability in adults. Why so? Because the leader has the most aggressive children. The boys' authority rests on their fists, while the girls' authority rests on plotting intrigues and manipulating a huge mind.
Both models of behavior sharply violate the principle of ahimsi, which, as it seems in yozi, creates black karma. The mature person's first plan is to be diplomatic and to continue to have normal human interactions at parity ambushes. All the great leaders, having matured, continue their activities without interruption, becoming more and more attuned to themselves. And over time they become overwhelmed by the social vacuum and the poor way of life. Life puts everything in its place. Guys who continue to solve their problems by violence are bound to face the antidote that breaks them themselves. And the girl, who goes to her death by cunning and deception, at the right moment faces the cruel revenge of those whom they deceived. Adulthood is a subtle understanding, and everything becomes clear.
On the other hand, the Yoga Sutra affirms that in the presence of that which is affirmed in ahimsa, the beasts are consumed. That's logical. Calm, good-natured and peace-loving people are the natural center around which all healthy marriages are grouped. Therefore, the mastery of the philosophy and practice of yoga will be more correctly expressed from the beginning of ahimsi.

Initiators of the presentation ahimsi on the p'edestal central they became honest, first for everything, ajivikas , and then Jaini і Buddhist , which gave a dubious brownness Vedic ritual, being concerned with the mortification of the absurdity of sacrifices (many of them involved creatures kneecap ) with the principle of disregard for perceptual sources.
Ajivikas - The most important directive of the Scaran hour - they have broken down a whole hierarchy of people who are distributed behind symbolic colors, in which stay the place has been occupied "Chorni"- myslivtsi, butchers those others who take part from killing creatures .
About those who already in the Shraman era there were debates about the foolishness of ritual piety and ahimsi, reconcile the transfers Mahabharati about the sages of old, one of them, the leader saṅkhė Kapila, ruin Lead for those who stink sanction slaughter sacrificial creatures. Up to 3 tbsp. BC concept ahimsi The table is becoming popular, because the king Ashoka, which, having made the first and only test of ideological unification Indian culture, which is dedicated to it first two of the celestial edicts, declaring a dharma that is acceptable to all “confessions.”

In the treatise Umasvati Tattvarthadhigamasutra (1-2 tbsp.), the reduction of violence over the essences, which they perceive, takes perche the place between the five components of the monastery and the laity and the disciples (brahma); violence is considered the first cause of harm for the future life and for the future people and identify with the sufferers as such; The youthful commandment is seen as the basis for cultivation kindness, good humor, good humor and tolerance.

Authoritative Brahmajala-suta middle perevag Buddi In front of many readers at this time, this means greater attention to both creatures and plants.
U Buddhist schools tried to clarify the relationship ahimsi with other related concepts.

THE POWER OF AHIMSI
There is no force pushing ahimsi .
Won recreate people into the Divine.
Practice ahimsi The heart develops in a wondrous manner.
Ahimsa develops strength souls, strength will, strength spirit.
Practice ahimsi to frighten people fearless.
The one who practices ahimsu you can change the whole world. You can calm down wild animals.
Practice ahimsi - this is the practice of Enlightened Living.
Ahimsa - this is the greatest honesty. Vaughn is fussing not just Hindu-Buddhists.
Kozhen, whoever you want Please inform Life can be practiced ahimsu .
Competence is easily lost in practice ahimsi .
Before you blame yourself only qiu honesty - ahimsu , all other honors attract yourself.
Ahimsi's law is as strict and precise as the law of gravity.
Ahims or non-violence is linked to the Yams (essential behavior) of yoga.
Ahimsa is respected by the weariness of the worst harm, whether it is a living essence, not only in thoughts, but in words and thoughts.
Thus, the practice of Ahimsi is a process of self-control, awareness and awareness of what is happening to us. If you deliberately harm other people and lose control of your mind through these actions, you will create an imbalance in yourself. Violence means separation from one’s natural nature; Ahimsa means closeness to pure spirit.
When a practitioner establishes himself in Ahimsi, he develops a kind of magnetism that attracts anyone with whom he interacts. In this manner, people are exposed to violence and witchcraft. The practice of Akhimsi wonderfully develops the strength of the soul, willpower, and strength of spirit; bestows fearlessness; Agility is easily controlled in the practice of Ahimsi,
The Patanjali Yoga Sutri is an ancient text of yoga, it seems:
In the presence of one who has established himself in non-violence, all the magic is added.
Non-violence, the suppression of harm, evil, the appearance of aggression, the appearance of images - all these rules the great practice of Ahimsi, which underlies not only the faith of yoga, but also such light religions as Christianity and Buddhism. Why should you stand in the first place? Why did the prophet Moses and Jesus Christ begin the commandment “Do not drive in!”? Why did Buddha place this shrine in the first place? The answer is quite simple: complete ahimsi brings us closer to Absolute Knowledge, and non-trimmed moves us further away from it. It helps us to overcome the beast, the creature that is inherent in us by nature, and to rise above the primary instincts, which reveal the most beautiful jaundicities in humans, and it seems.
Kozhen, who, regardless of style, is directly responsible for understanding the importance of this woman. You really need to start making changes for yourself. This is the basis of all fundamentals, the “golden” rule. Without any difficulty, twist yourself around the folding knot and try to leave before meditation. I won't be successful. Without ahimsi there is no yoga!
Non-violence must be pursued ABSOLUTELY: in action, in words, in thoughts, in ANY circumstances, at any time. Besides, uninflicted mischief may be directed not only towards oneself, but also towards oneself. These two vectors give us the energy of getting closer to the Center, to the Truth. The force of ahimsi is similar to the force of gravity: it is just as strict and precise in its action and results.
What is important to the respect of Ahimsa on a special plane? We are aware of negative thoughts, emotions, feelings, such as frustration, condemnation, anger. Imagery, aggression, hatred, enchantment, passion, vengeance, etc.
These seem to be our enemies - vampires, who drink the energy of the mind, which we need to direct in a different direction, for different purposes. If negative thoughts seem to persist and do not agitate us, then the power of will, soul, and spirit accumulates and gives us even more potential for self-realization. All these enemies need to move vigorously out of the flow of information in order to cleanly, effectively absorb other energies.
For a friend, this is a great kind of violence to oneself, to one’s body, to one’s mind. People who begin to practice yoga often resort to fanatical asceticism, not realizing the harm they cause to themselves. They overexert themselves, and now they have the right to torture themselves with complex cleansing procedures and super-strict diets. This is extreme! We need to remember that the most successful path is the middle one. There is no need to strain, torment your body and psyche. Changes may be made step by step. You need to work on yourself reasonably, without stress, without aggression, without pain, without haste. It is necessary to relax and give your body and mind time to re-adjust and transform.
Practice without effort, without pain, with respect and awareness. The one who does not love himself cannot love others. However, we need to approach love with ourselves carefully, otherwise we will again be drowned in paste and turn into cruel egoists.
The power of ahimsi is very great. Establish yourself in the spirit, and you will see how the world around you becomes less of a bewitcher, less angry and aggressive. I can't wait for the dogs to stop barking at you :-)!
Regardless of the usual philosophy with which we come to the practice of yoga, Patanjali gives us a miraculous solution. When there is a naughty thought that haunts you and others, and that screams out a feeling of greed, anger, mercy, then you need to call out a protracted thought, based on the fact that the skin is a negative thought and create a lot of misfortune and suffering in our life.
To put it in simple words, you need to catch yourself in negative thoughts, words and the main thing and put them down: turbo, love, respect. If you are being teased when you are pregnant, then don’t be nervous, calm down, let yourself go. If your child is afraid of stupidity, then do not beat her, but become aware of the situation and try to explain everything. If you want to work harder for you at work or in your family, then you don’t need to give them so many problems, get them out of the way. The more often you do this, the more natural it becomes for you. Those for whom you have no respect grow in size and develop negative instincts. Today we have the opportunity to change our minds in ahimsi. The fact is that you have the ability and ability to experience pain, but you choose not to do it with proper practice, which is true yoga.
It is obvious that the practice of asanas, pranayamas, meditation, etc. is the first step in the history of yoga (Ashtanga, Raja yoga, classical yoga of Patanjali). - as well as any other asceticism, including vegetarianism, ideally can be based on the inner understanding and acceptance of the ancient principles, reinterpreted from the codes of “ethics of yogis” - Yami and Niyami. What are these rules?
The five rules of Yami give recommendations on the behavior of people in marriage, the five rules of Niya are the principles of self-discipline. In principle, there is nothing extraordinary, such is the biblical wisdom: do not kill, do not steal, do not lie, etc. It’s a paradox: for rich people, and among those who have recently started doing yoga, and among those who save money, the relevance of the ten “commandments” of Yami and Niyami is not at all obvious. It seems illogical to follow them, and seems unsafe - as if to say, “our hour is not easy” and I feel like “our climate is in trouble.”
Let's figure it out a little. The skin believes it is food for itself, but according to the logic of speeches, the “commandments” of Yami and Niyamy have not become “outdated” and stagnate in our climate, like anyone else, like the biblical commandments. There will be no such reductions, no concessions, no compromises, neither in the New River nor in the period of global warming. These rules have not become outdated in our time, but on the contrary, they have become more and more relevant, and it worries not only those who do yoga, but also all people. However, again, you can think and develop ideas yourself - and lead them to disappointment, collapse, or, finally, to success, internal and external.
In order to become aware of the real relevance and practical validity of these theories, which are more than five thousand years old, it seems logical to first take a good look at them and understand their real significance , those as they stand in our specific situation. Once again, various commentators disparage the provisions of the codes of Yami and Niyami almost diametrically; The principle of Ishvara Pranidhani - “concern with God” has become a “stone of stumbling”, and Brahmacharya is “ill-fated”, and perhaps everything can be confused ambiguously! It is logical to assume that a person who wants to reach the understanding of these commandments informally must become such a “commentator of his own”, and according to the literature, take the power puzzle, and then meditate for a little while - and so, lkom perhaps, disappear from Svidomosti correct the camp of speeches.
Two important words. First of all, you don’t need to forget that the codes of the rules of Yami and Niyami are not some abstract philosophy (“I’m an Advaitist, so I don’t need to do yoga,” or “I read a mantra, and the pig goes straight to heaven”), but practical sayings Before the fact, and, in other words, we need to know that these rules were created not for any kind of cultural and social prosperous people, but for the sake of nationality (“for the ancient Hindus-Brahmins”, etc.), and not the Laws of Manu! Yama and Niyama, in truth, are not dogmas - but simply knowledge, discovered by wise people of the patterns that are true regardless of nationality and climate, like E = mc2. As a result, they are suitable not only for yogis, but also for people who live in society (one of the traditional six schools of Yoga - Karma Yoga, adherents of which, with little respect, are obliged to lead an active social life, teach this family too) . Evidence of analysis and testing of “initialization” into our reality of one of the rules of Yami and Niyami. Perhaps the most important rule of Yami is Ahimsa, “non-violence.” How do you need to understand? Don’t kill people – that’s all? Perhaps, that’s not enough. (The evil “Ahimsa kshatriya” comes to mind...) Why also not harm the creatures, and not infuse their meat into the hedgehogs? It seems more plausible. Have you decided not to inflict violence on anyone or anyone?
In truth, we respect that we are guilty of no one and no one to commit harm in action, not in words, not in thoughts... In order to understand, we need to know that it is practically impossible not to commit violence at all - simply by the fact itself Our dreams are ruinous for countless people Other living things - just before microbes in our body, as well as other comas, growths. When we follow a vegetarian diet, we eat vegetables, grains, and they are also alive! This book of yoga is overlaid on a paper, the paper is cut from wood: in order to make it, it was necessary to cut down the tree. Therefore, if you accept the principle of ahimsi thoughtlessly, with fanaticism, then you can’t talk about any kind of yoga, but you can’t talk about life. It is necessary to simply die - without being the least evil (actors especially adepts of Jainism tried to do so).
However, such understanding clearly leads us away from the classical yoga of Patanjali. I’ll start again - but what can we take as an axiom, that the principle of Akhimsi will stand, first for everything, to itself? Can you give me the key to this correct understanding? How can you dare to destroy Ahimsa “in your daily life” to benefit yourself? If a person has a lot of strength (energy), he has a problem: many people who practice yoga don’t have a daily routine, regularity, they have the right to practice incorrectly - and the body “endures” every hour, and illusions are created. I, everything is Miracle, practice collapses like a trace.
In fact, tensions “accumulate” in the body, and there is also a popular concept that the more you strain, the better, the more you push to the right, the better. Physically it is not difficult and subtle practices become ineffective if the work in asana is not complicated. It seems that this will bring you a quick and reliable result. The concept of victory at any price. Obviously, it doesn’t work like that – it will lead to distortions in practice. The main concept on Earth is this: “I’m not strong enough to commit violence, but I’m not strong enough to stagnate.”
This principle should be used both in meetings with colleagues, friends, and before eating meat - as it is impossible to harm the body of the strong, and to oneself - in the practice of yoga: “I’ll get myself some pain and bad - then as a result, melodiously I’ll become flexible and strong, with a strong pose like in the picture, and then I won’t be far from payroll!” For newborns, this often results in minor injuries - people do not realize that they themselves need to worry, going ahead. Zastos forces violence to itself, and comes out even worse. The knees, the back and the practice as a whole suffer. Having simply overworked in the first classes, people can say: “Well, everything hurts, I feel bad, yoga practice is not suitable for me - the body is clearly talking to me about this!”
In these cases, we first realized that the practice of yoga is a priori respectful of Ahimsa, non-violence - and began to impose this principle on oneself. It is important to listen to yourself, to consider the influx of various factors into your body - and honestly, without compromise, to follow the best path - the axis of practical application of one of the principles of Yami in practice is accessible to everyone. But let me admit it: the principles of Yami and Niyami are like the classic koani of Zen: they need to be taken into account further, returning to them at different stages of one’s development, in order to understand everything more deeply.
