Swamiji: Yes, but a great restlessness must already have come upon them; long enjoyment of the objects of the senses must already have created in them deep disgust. Ardha Matsyendrasana is an intense deep stretch and is beneficial, which helps to get rid of any stiffness between the vertebrae. This asana helps to stretch your pelvic regions, which secretes the stress hormone and increases the supply of blood, nutrients, and oxygen to the reproductive organs, which improves your reproductive health. It is especially beneficial for reducing stress levels in addition to symptoms of anxiety, like trouble sleeping or difficulty focusing during the day due to racing thoughts. With yoga, we can clear our minds of unnecessary thoughts and align them with our bodies and soul. Swamiji: As I said just now, Sannyasins are on the path of renunciation, they have taken the field, at least, to fight for the goal; but householders, on the other hand, having no knowledge as yet of the danger that comes through lust and greed, do not even attempt to realise the Self; that they must struggle to get rid of these is an idea that has not yet entered their minds.

For their whole minds are set on these two things. Whenever you do anything, do it with your whole heart concentrated on it. Their concentration and sense of calmness and relaxation improves and, by doing yoga, children exercise, play, connect more deeply with the inner self. It teaches children about nature, their environment and inspires their imaginations. Being again and again entangled in the intricate maze of delusion and hard hit by sorrows and afflictions, the eye will turn of itself to one's own real nature, the Inner Self. Ask the people of that part of the country to visit him often; that will do much good to them. The country from end to end is being bored to extinction by the cry, "Don't touch", "Don't touch", of the non-touchism party. Why do we again and again run into the jaws of death, being decoyed by this worthless snare of lust-and-wealth? Disciple: If it is so, and if we are really of the essence of the Supreme Brahman, then why do we not exert ourselves to gain that Bliss? Disciple: Why? May not world-weariness come, after enjoying the objects of the senses over and over for a long time?

Disciple: Will mere renouncing of wealth and lust accomplish everything? This will surely bring real good. Swamiji: Whenever such thoughts come in the mind, discriminate within yourself between the real and the unreal. Swamiji: Do you know, Shri Ramakrishna used to speak of Nag Mahashaya as a "flaming fire"? If anyone wants to be a householder, let him be like Nag Mahashaya. Let your head hang freely as you breathe sincerely 10 to 12 times. Close your eyes and as you breath let your body go heavy and let yourself relax. 2. Reach behind your body and grab the soles of your feet (if you can). Perform the asana while keeping your spine erect and it can help in releasing tension and can have a calming effect on your body. Then focus the gaze on the tip of nose and visualizing the reflection of the moon inhale while mentally chanting ‘thum’ 16 times, Fish pose in yoga retain 64 times chanting ‘vam’ and exhale 32 times chanting ‘lam’ while also visualizing the the nectar from the moon is flowing into the nadis. Purification of nadis is of 2 types-samanu and nirmanu. 4. If your head is tilting back, this pose will get uncomfortable fairly quickly.

Release the posture by lifting the head and bringing the back of your head on the floor. Point your toes. Your arms can rest by your sides, palms facing up or bringing your arms up over your head so your forearms reach toward the floor. Lift your pelvis slightly of the floor and slide your hands (palms down) underneath your buttocks. That Supreme Bliss fully exists in all, from Brahmâ down to the blade of grass. That you have taken service and work so hard for the sake of your wife also shows that the aim is ultimately to attain to that Supreme Bliss of Brahman. You are also that undivided Brahman. Swamiji: Sannyasins are at least struggling to make themselves ready for renunciation, whereas householders are in this matter like boatmen who work at their oars while the boat lies at anchor. One who has not gained renunciation, know his efforts to be like unto those of the man who is pulling at the oars all the while that the boat is at anchor. Swamiji: One day in the temple-garden at Dakshineswar Shri Ramakrishna touched me over the heart, and first of all I began to see that the houses -rooms, doors, windows, verandahs-the trees, the sun, the moon-all were flying off, shattering to pieces as it were-reduced to atoms and molecules -and ultimately became merged in the Âkâsha.
