INTRODUCTION
Live Beyond the Ordinary
The journey of life is similar to a walk through a maze. We enter the world like everyone else, but instantly separate in different directions depending on the environment and family we are born into. At certain points, we come to junctions with two or three other paths; this is when we have to make a decision, deciding which direction to take without really knowing how long the journey will last or where it will lead.
Some push on through blindly by guessing. Many impulsively choose based on how they feel or their mood in the moment. Others come to an intellectual or practical decision based on logic and rationale. But very few choose to sit, close their eyes, contemplate, and listen to what their intuition or soul is directing them to do. And then, even fewer people have the inclination to follow this inner voice completely and wholeheartedly without allowing the mind to cast a shadow of a doubt.
By this stage most of us are now lost in this self-created maze of the mind due to all our past decisions and choices. This is where the mind becomes confused or stressed, because while it thought it was making progress forward, now it realizes it has been going around in circles instead, at times even backtracking. Our minds will eventually take this state of confusion as reality, as ordinary, normal life. Instead of searching for a way out, we settle down, get comfortable, and make a home in it.
We need our higher spiritual Self to guide our way out of this maze, to ignite our superconsciousness in order to have the capacity and wisdom to make the right decisions that lead to the exitto liberation. This is what it means to take the spiritual path, a path that is not heard or seen in the external, physical sense. Rather, it is invisible and within us. Science, medicine, and technology cannot find a way to the higher Self by inventing a device or a pill. They cannot build a powerful telescope or microscope to see it. The greatest of the scientific minds, such as Dr. Stephen Hawking, have made it their lifes work to find answers to the question: Why am I? And they are still searching and will forever be searching until they turn inward. The theory of life and our universe cannot be answered by outward testing or material discoveries; it can be reached and answered through one way: yogic spiritual practices . And the one who can master these spiritual practices is the yogi.
These spiritual practices are the sounds, light, vibrations, movements, and images that form and come together in a specific and detailed manner to unlock and penetrate the higher consciousness. The yogi is the master who knows how to put these tools together in the correct configuration to make them open up and reveal the hidden secrets of our inner universe.
Who Can Become a Yogi?
The answer is anyone can become a yogi. The only difference is that a yogi not only lives by societys laws but lives and is guided by universal spiritual principles, written and taught by the ancient sagesthe spiritual scientists and philosophers of their time. While modern scientists use outer matter to conduct experiments and to do studies to arrive at theoretical conclusions, yogis use their own body and mind as a lifelong experiment and prove their results through self-realization and personal experience. Life becomes a grand science project with a higher goal and purpose.
Through practices to control the body, breath, senses, and mind, yogis can start to remove the veil that separates their mind from their higher Self or soul. These practices are so subtle and powerful that they help transcend the body and mind into superconsciousness. The spiritual practices taught in this book are the principles and codes that will unlock and reveal the pathways to the next levels of transcendence and the invisible kingdom of the extraordinary. This level is where we act from our intuitive nature and not so much from our intellectual mind. In other words, we not only live by using our body and mind but we gain access to much greater powers to put toward our lifes loves and pursuits, making them much more purposeful.
