Spiritual International Yoga Day – Get Enlightened by Chanakya Ganguly  on June 21st (International Yoga Day)


Indian epics show the benefits of Yogic Practice to face Life’s reality
https://www.fitnessadvisory.org/2014/05/02/character-building-yoga/
In Indian epics, it is depicted that King Harishchandra never lost his cool when his kingdom was
lost and he had work in a crematorium. RaMa (Consciousness like the Sun), for whom all praise
and criticism get burnt down, never lost his cool, when he faced a million adversities. Yogic
Enlightenment is the solution to understand the reality of (un)certainty, confidence, and justice.

Yogic Transformation can open our breadth of interests like Penrose
http://nautil.us/issue/47/consciousness/roger-penrose-on-why-consciousness-does-not-compute
Oxford mathematician Penrose said his interest in consciousness goes back to Gödel’s
incompleteness theorem. Yogic transformation can take us to the root of a transformation of
human consciousness and its connection to psychology, philosophy, physiology, social sciences,
management, classical music, dance, poetry, literature to make us fulfilled multi-dimensionally.

Yoga can prevent suicides, provide positive self-concept and mental strength to people
https://www.lexiyoga.com/yoga-and-suicide
Modern education has still kept us stuck in the endless cycle of immature talk, social media,
fragile psyche, consumerism, indiscipline, and deculturization. We still have issues with
empathy, tolerance, human injustice, unstable marriages, me-too movement, gun violence.
Yoga & Ayurveda can provide a path to ‘Have muscles of iron and nerves of steel’ –Vivekananda.

Civilization not founded on Yogic Mind Sciences will find it difficult to fight hedonism
http://usbengalforum.com/yogic-practice/
We are still missing mental health education, and trying to teach everything else – sex, race,
secular. Not understanding these are just the side-effects of not having mass yogic education in
a scientific formal way. And we are tolerating it, in spite of having a diamond within us, looking
for coal everywhere, thus perpetuating violence, instability poor self-concept, and mediocrity.

Yogic way of non-egoistic consciousness can transform human ethics, mind and health
http://usbengalforum.com/yoga-can-make-us-immortalize-the-higher-common-ground/
The egoistic notion of success to be an exclusive performer doesn’t really help. Instead, an
inclusive non-egoistic notion of success in developing character, concentration, consciousness
to be a Yogi helps all. The so-called modern Man is a Machine model is destroying lives and
should instead be replaced by The Yogic Mind & Spirit model to restore Ethics, Mind, Health.
