TIP FOR TWO WHEELER RIDERS
TO AVOID BACK PAIN:
SIT with your back bone bent forward like this
this avoids jerks to discs directly! keep your
lower abdomen as far back on the seat
as possible. Keep yr legs straight, if possible.


 

 

 

 

Note: For those who do hard physical work, bending , twisting, turning, every day, untiringly, and for those who has symmetrical work for all the parts of the body, YOGA is NOT required. If the mindset is good nothing is required said Bharathiar, poet of Tamilnadu.

To make your body ready for Yoga, You have to have
a fruit diet atleast onetime a day, for one week atleast. Othewise
if You are fat and rigid Your body will not cooperate. Easy method
is to go in for fruit diet as above, reduce your fat, scientifically without
harming the body. This will help you to achieve better results.Yoga is slow and
is not like Aerobic exercises which will produce sweat. You stay in these postures,
atleast for a few minutes, allowing blood flow to various parts of the body.


 KRIYAS
They are for cleaning of body thru bodies' exit points.
                                                                                                                                                                  
 

**KRIYAHS in Sanskrit are actions performed by the Yogi of at least 1 year performance
and good experience in Yoga exercises and are advanced yoga actions performed to cleanse the body of its toxic collections periodically. These help the organs which are idle and ineffective otherwise
to assume importance in their role performance in the health of a person.
**
1.Kapaalabhatee: This means bringing light into the brain's interiors. That is to be understood as bringing new oxygen and new blood flow into the brain and its parts. This is done by a fast and deep breathing
exercise done with supervision and the blowing of air out with force and inhaling is definitely an effective method producing some good changes inside the head. However this is to be done with supervision. There is
nothing wrong in trying for people who know about yoga and who have done it for some time.
When you blow out air, you stomach and lower lungs part goes in in compression.
When you blow in, the reverse happens. So while doing it fast you will find the yogi's stomach going in and coming out at a faster rate, say for a stretch of 3 minutes. Then one should take rest by lying down.
**
2.Draatakam: Concentrating your vision on one spot, without blinking or without closing eyelids. It will help in concentration of the mind, for persons with disturbed distracted minds.
Yogis also sit in vajraasana or padmaasana and keep their vision looking at the tip of the nose,under this krea.


**3 NETHI (JALA NETHI OR
SOOTHRA NETHI)JALANETHI  :
Cleaning Nostrils with Water

Nostril and the passage is to be cleaned every night or morning so that the remaining phlegm, waste will not contaminate and cause health problems like sinusitis, head ache, etc .
Cleaning this passage will help enhance the vision also.
By tilting the face sideways, cooled warm water with a little pinch of salt is poured by a special jug nozzle into the nostrils one after the other slowly. After doing the right, the head is tilted back normally and the water is blown out gently by the nose. The same is done to the other side also. This is repeated many times, say 3 each side. Before retiring to bed, 2 hours after food if this is done by persons with cold, headache, sinus, this will really help.

Soothra nethi,



PLEASE DO NOT TRY IT WITHOUT A GUIDE !

In Soothra nethi, a rubber catheter of very thin diameter and 133cm longer,
is washed in warm water and
applied on surface with some coconut oil. It is inserted into the nostril by tilting the face towards the roof/sky and it is gently thrusted into the nostril and further so that it is reaching the throat portion from where by our sterilized (washed clean ) finger tips, it is pulled out gently. By pulling its two outer ends by both the hands,GENTLY the passage is cleaned by the catheter. Breaking bleeding the inner mucous membranes should be taken care of by using coconut or gingelly(sesame) or
olive oil over the tube and doing it GENTLY,GENTLY,GENTLY.

This should not be done by juniors as blood may come and needs supervision. The method is given only for  competent amateurs and yogis of some experience.
 

A WORD OF CAUTION:

 WEBSITES CONTAIN MANY ACTIVITIES BUT ARE NOT FOR CHILDREN or ADULTS, TO FOLLOW IMMEDIATELY OR DO ALONE WITHOUT ADULT SUPERVISION. ITEMS CONNECTED WITH HEALTH SHOULD NOT BE DONE BY CHILDREN OR UNINITIATED ADULTS ALONE.  

 

***DHAUTHI

Yoga emphasizes spiritual, intellectual, mental (psychological) cleanliness and without it no one can achieve the real benefits of the yoga culture. Yogic exercises and Kriyas are  highly intelligent cultural gifts to the world from India And are Physical Cleaning & Strengthening which is a preparation for higher goals.

Dhauthi is cleaning of the waste eliminating organs in the human body by various methods scientific and rational. 
BY AIR:      the air is taken in and stored and with EXPERIENCE AND UNDER SUPERVISION,. it is used to clean the stomach, food pipe, and up to the large intestine. 

BY WATER, one drinks more water as much as possible in empty stomach, some times with a little salt  added to the water that is warm. The person moves stomach so that the water cleanses the stomach. Then by putting a finger deep into the mouth , one brings forth vomiting which comes with entire water while cleaning the inner. (AS IF WITH AN EMETIC)

BY INTERNAL FIRE that is generated by breathing out and emptying the lungs and by certain difficult exercises.  It is expected that the body produces a heat inside that cleanses the body.

                                                                                                

BY  CLOTH, of very long size like a cord, soft to the inner sides of the food pipe is taken IN BY MOUTH  by the yogi and TILL one end of it reaches the stomach. The cord is then after sometime pulled out of mouth slowly.  It brings out all the toxic substances and this cleanses the insides.

There are also cleaning actions of the TEETH, and the cleaning action of the tongue, mouth insides, ear cleaning  by warm water.  THE MESSAGE IS :

CLEAN  YOUR BODY TO GET GOOD HEALTH

 

UDHIYANA  is emptying the lungs by exhaling and pulling in the stomach muscles so that the lungs can be kept empty (vacuum) for a few seconds only. These actions bring strength to lungs and the stomach and provide us with very flexible  muscles around  the stomach.

NAULI  is performed by yoga experts ONLY, by pulling in the stomach and moving it or rotating it clockwise or anticlockwise so that the stomach is cleaned. This stage is reached only by experience and much practice. One should have  rubber like muscles in the stomach for this which comes by years of practice ONLY.

ENEMA is allowing  clean water to enter the rectum through the anus into large intestine and it is retained there for some 10 minutes and then it is allowed to be naturally expelled. This is done in allopathy also but with soap water.  In naturopathy or yoga  soap is not used and only clean water is relied upon. It is interesting to know that in the good old days our forefather- yogis used to enter the river and pull in the clean  river water into the intestine by sucking through the anus and used to expel it as a way of cleaning the intestine. The stomach muscles are not as elastic today as they were centuries back perhaps. The stomach is the  seat of all diseases generating in the body. A Bird called IBIS ? is known to do this enema taking, in rivers by itself.The intellectuals of the east always said : 
Good minds stay in Good bodies 
Hence the need for good bodies.

PHYSICAL FITNESS 5BX THE 11 MINUTE EXERCISE PLAN FOR MEN

AND THE 12 MINUTE EXERCISE PLAN FOR WOMEN

as developed by the Royal Canadian Air force, the internationally used program for getting fit, feeling fit and staying fit    

PENGUIN BOOKS PHYSICAL FITNESS

===this is a good book worth following to enhance our body condition.    With out exercise, and diet control diseases will take us over and cannot relieve us.

MEDICINES   with out the individual's intervention and physical and mental efforts cannot cure, beyond an extent. It is not a myth. It's a fact, whether you or I  like it or not.

 

This book has the right type of movements for the stomach muscles to keep a flexible stomach!  and give you  A broad chest with a healthy lungs! It is a pity that after centuries of schooling  no school with responsibility has got this in its daily routine 10 m exercise and no police force has  enforced it, probably, around the world. This was done in an office by me with 4 other employees  for 6 months and there was enormous output of work  and Good Health.

Children who do this will get a good and strong body with more immunity for ever. 

I  should thank                                                                     

THE YOGA BROTHERHOOD

-- KAIVALYADAMA YOGA CENTRE ,

 and Mr T P Srikumaran, Anna Salai,Chennai 2 for my introduction to  scientifically taught, Yoga and teaching me for a few years at Chennai when I was young.

They teach scientific yoga which is distinct from many many schools of yoga. They have a head office and centre  near Pune at Lonavla., started by Swami Kuvalayananda in 1924.

         

also....     

 THE INSTITUTE OF NATUROPATHY AND YOGIC SCIENCES    JINDAL NAGAR TUMKUR ROAD BANGALORE 560073 INDIA

has done honorable and excellent work and contributed to society in the field  of HOLISTIC HEALTH  . THEIR STARTING OF THE INSTITUTION IS WHOLESOME SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION FOR WHICH THE FOUNDERS WILL BE HONORED IN ALL THE MINDS OF THE PEOPLE WHO VISITED THERE AND OBTAINED GOOD HEALTH. THERE ARE VARIOUS SOCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS A PERSON DESIRES TO GIVE BUT FALTERS.

THIS IS A MIGHTY REAL CONTRIBUTION INDEED!!  

You can get very useful books from them to get rid of many minor and major health problems. However these are not marketed and if you desire to follow a life of discipline without laziness and are hence known to lesser people. There are many schools of Yoga to mislead the people. It is difficult to make a wise choice. There are also millions of asanas!.   All that you need is a few according to your health problem or features

What are the important asanas every one can learn easily ?

These are postures in which the blood flow is regulated and supplied to a particular part to rejuvenate it fully and this is not possible so evenly so symmetrically in any other exercise. There is no touch of religion in this.  

This is a science. 
PICTURES FOLLOW                            

schools  are narrowly missing a chance to strengthen and rejuvenate and freshen  their children's health, by NOT following a daily routine or by following a wrong routine. A FEW SCHOOLS SHOULD MAKE A NEW BEGINNING TO TEACH YOGA WITHOUT THE RELIGIOUS STRINGS ATTACHED TO IT
