If the body is healthy then everything is healthy. When the body becomes unhealthy then everything goes wrong.

THE BODY IS CONNECTED TO THE MIND, intelligence, pride, etc. If any part of the body is in pain, the mind’s attention will go there. There are some Siddhi Masters who are able to keep the bodily pains and the mind separate, but this is not possible for the ordinary man.

Therefore it would be better to keep the body and mind free from ill health?

While there is still time. And so, not for others, but for the sake of your own self and good health, by paying some daily attention regularly, not only will one gain a strong, healthy and beautiful body, but we will also help in creating a strong, healthy and happy nation.

Surya Namaskar – Sun Salutation

The cyclic energy is dependent on the Sun. Without the sun, no human being can stay alive, and that is why we pay our respects to the Sun. The Surya Namaskar not only helps in KEEPING THE BODY AND MIND HEALTHY AND STRONG, but one also gains spiritual benefits. Chanting of mantras as one does the Surya Namaskar also allows the inner pure energies to be awakened.

In the Shastras, it is also written that by doing the Surya Namaskar one can become free of untimely death. Sins are forgiven and goodness is protected, and also those who do the Surya Namaskar are never lacking in wealth. Therefore everyone must do the Surya Namaskar, every day. Just as Lord Shank Bhagwan is pleased when one pours water over the lingam, in the same way, the Sun God is pleased Just by us folding our hands together in the Namaskar.

And so the greatness of Surya Namaskar in unmeasurable☀
