If it's just about Physical exercises then why call it Yoga? Which Yoga Teacher is Teaching YOga devoid of its Spirituality? Also why the Spirituality of Yoga is Incompatible with the Christian Faith

I practised yoga for many years as a christian. I suffer from spinal arthritis and depression and yoga helped, but when I really looked into it, I stopped even though I had a heavy heart. I have started using pilates to help with my health problems as this has no asanas to false Gods. When I found out that goddess pose had to do with the goddess Kali, I was so sorry to have offended the Lord, even if I did not realise at the time.
There is not sruti (authentic Hindu text) that says yoga is for worshipping any gods. According to the Upanishads, where yoga is first menteioned, it is for connecting your lower soul to your higher soul or your soul to your spirit if you are Christian.
So if pilates uses the same positions as yoga, it's some how different because you changed the name? If I call a big mac the big kahuna, does that change what it is? Pilates was derived from yoga, you can google this yourself. Joseph Pilates himself studied yoga according to what he wrote in his own journals.
What you Joseph just invented all this stuff on his own, lol. Sure he made innovations with some of the equiptment, but he didn't invent pilates from from scratch.
This was sad to read
there was no such thing as christianity in india. it was brought by european invaders who themselves were converts. its a fake 2000 yr old cult.
I have never found anything better for my back than very basic Surya Namaskar sun salutation flow. I used to pray before and after to God in Jesus name to dedicate the exercise for health. But after I heard so many Priests come out against all the poses (especially upward and downward dog) I thought I had better stop no matter my intent.
Yoga is at the heart of Hinduism.
There is no Hinduism without yoga and there is no yoga without Hinduism.

yoga is a hindu religious ritual.
christians should not be doing it.
Uh, lots of exercises have names ie pilates, boxing, lifting, dance, calisthenics, etc.
Most of the people in West have no clue about any spiritual elements connected to yoga. It is mostly to look good in your lulu lemon leggings , it is also fashionable to be able to do the head stand. ..and for some people is to just do stretching and learn how to breath properly.
As a hindu, I totally agree with u, yoga teachers tell yoga has nothing with Hinduism but the reality yoga and meditation is an integral part of Hinduism
Exactly why it's so effective! 🕉🕉
@@Ar-ok1rg not really, qi gong is far better. No offense Js as a practical matter , it is far more effective than yoga is at reaching the goals yoga alleges to achieve. Yoga is an attempt to imitate qi gong and other similar exercises.
@@Redbird10 It's older than qi gong. Buddha literally was born in India and went to China. Qi gong is an attempt to imitate
@@Ar-ok1rg incorrect, qi gong is older than written language, around 10,000 years old. "Buddha" who has nothing to do with yoga or qingong btw, was not around until a long time after.

I worked in a new age store for over 20 years and was exposed to an array of Eastern practices. I eagerly embraced them then strange things starting happening in my body and mind. I developed an intense pressure in my head. Everyone I went to for advice convinced me the problem was with me. Finally, after years of failed attempts I realized the practices themselves were the problem. Jesus came into my life. It’s been a rough journey because I was so embedded in the new age/metaphysical movement. I just moved and will be attending Mass at my new Church.
I would love to talk to you more. I am trying to sort out what is truly science and what is the occult. I think with your experience you may have some incite. Do you have time to talk?
@ Jaconta Cox my cell phone tower is having maintenance so talking is an issue right now. I’m more than happy to message you! I’m pretty confused myself but I would be happy to share my experiences with you.
God bless you!
Well said
Bless you 🙏🏻
True, there is no separation of physical aspect and spiritual aspect of yoga. Yoga was actually practiced for spiritual attainment not for physical attainment. When the new age revolution broke out in west People used it as physical exercise. If you ask any true yogi not any psuedo yoga teachers they will say that there is no separation of spiritual and physical elements. As joseph brother said if People are practicing yoga for physical benefits there are many physical activities one can do, that can wage way better results than yoga. And of someone is saying they do it for mental wellness, then surely those Christians doesn't have a good prayer life or a personal connect with Jesus, that is why they are behind all the trends what the world says. I believe catholic church should make it clear about yoga and say whether we should practice it or not, and whether it is against catholic beliefs. I personally have learnt philosophy of yoga is convinced that yoga is not for Christians.
There’s no problem doing the stretches and poses. The problem comes when you start using those poses as part of prayer or makes one curious about what is further down the Yoga/Hindu rabbit hole
I can see your point but being "human" I suspect, for a,lot of people it would be hard not too. I am no expert of yoga but I have noticed that when I do it, I do feel some sort of comfort with it and I have backed right off because I could something was encouraging me to keep going back and sadness of I didnt and I'd get emotional with it. That's not normal. Not for exercise. Happy yes, but not emotional and I sense of dependency from my heart. I dropped it like a hot brick.
Slowly, quiettly, sneaky he is the devil.
The warrior pose is a murder scene.
I like the fact that they said yoga is demonic, and then when it became popular, they took it from India and made a holy version of it with Jesus, saying that yoga is not a part of Hindu culture and not giving India credit for it 😃
I l;oved this comment dude😂
1 Corinthians 10:23
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
I’m not a Christian but my mum is and she has made comments in the past about yoga and how she feels it’s demonic. I really didn’t understand why she would say something like that but this video helped me put myself in her shoes, so thank you.
I wouldn’t say it’s demonic. It’s just stretching and relaxing and going deep within. There are different streams of yoga. Eating meat is worse in my opinion. The violence of the pain the animal experiences goes into the food and makes worship tougher. But most Christian leaders say it’s fine, it’s allowed. Meat doesn’t help with spirituality.
@@aryanraina1076Plants "feel". Boise did an experiment with them. They would lean towards one who watered them & spoke kindly to them. The one who yelled at them & fiercely cut off parts of their broad leaves, they would tremble, & lean far away when he came near! Get a microscope. How many micro organisms do you consume in a glass of water? How many insects are killed when you drive a car? How many earthworms are slaughtered when carrots are dug or transplants placed in the ground? Or snails slaughtered? How much wildlife is displaced when a house is built? The entire creation cries & moans in pain from flood, fire, earthquake. After the Flood the earth was devastated. Enough crops could not be grown. Animal could forage these sparse lands & become food. Think of all the cattle that has life on ranches that would never have been born if not raised for food! There are humane ways of killing animals & these are largely practiced. Read Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon to gain a healthy view of nutrients & the human body, please. Jesus Christ ate fish. Was He not spiritual? Hindu practices cause a dissociated state. Hallucinations. Amorality.Tit for tat to "balance karma". I'll pray for you.
It's not just the spirituality of Yoga. It is the positions that one takes while doing Yoga! And therefore no Christian should be doing Yoga!
I have come to find that when many Westerners adopt Eastern cultures and customs they more often than not end up bastardizing them anyways. I see it with martial arts, Buddhism, Hinduism, along with Yoga. Stretching is good just for the sake of physical health and nothing more!
Hey brother.. All praise to God..
Let me add to this : when God says , “Let us make humankind in our image, according to our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.” in. Gen 1.26,; why should we children of God down grade ourselves to animal or demonic positions .. This could be a though with regard to various positions practiced in yoga..

They want Catholics to stay not knowing. I believe its just not for some and that's ok! Yoga poses change your vibration and opens your chakras and releases your kundalini energy. Wether you believe or not is your choice. Doing yoga is now my physical and spiritual go to. Not everyone is on the same journey some are better off not knowing honestly. I now pray when I do yoga to mother Mary Jesus st Germaine quan yin shiva, ECT I felt always detached when I went to church and knew it was only small part of something so much bigger! Ultimately you decide your choice! I know everyone's path isn't yoga and that's ok! Take care of each other.
simple solution for Christians is just don't call it yoga do whatever you want to do , anyways being a hindu I do many things which comes from Christian faith , I celebrate Christian festivals but I never thought in this way , that is the difference between a monotheistic religion and a religion which has many gods I guess , in monotheistic everything is black and white ,
No, there are gray areas. But Hinduusm is the balance of opposites. There is no right or wrong. Only negation.sad😢
yoga is indeed a integral spiritual and physical practice of hindusim, yoga is 70 to 80 % spiritual, in west they do hatha yoga only which is just stretching and breathing exercises, the spiritual yoga is all about meditation 🧘♀️ ,achieving stable conscious which is hard
Thats why its dangerous to our religion and we will fight you heidens till the last complaint
Not true. There are Hindu Ashrams in America & Westerners go on retreats there. The poses themselves are connected automatically with deities & the breathing is designed towards a meditative state. One does feel energized & calm but towards the direction of these deities, towards Brahm, the Hindiu highest region. Which is still being stuck in this creation! The goal is the problem because it is these deities who give temporary peace. Not Eternal Supernatural Oeace. And that is the trick that has caught you.
Great explanation!
i use yoga cushion to sit because it helps my back pain. is that bad for my christianity? there are also a couple of yoga poses that relieve my bacj pain that i want to do for my ciatica that i learnt as a dancer but i know they are yoga but at the same tiem i suspect it can be any other streching exercise. i have never taaken aa yoga class and necver will-

Of course real yoga is all about the Hindu religion. This fact must not be hidden and then one can make an informed decision.
Hindu word is itself not yours nor it is mentioned anywhere in your scriptures be it Gita/Upanishads/puranas etc.
So you should find out what's your religion true name is then bark here.
@@Manoj-vp5in What is your religion? So you have read the Hindu scriptures? Of course not for you would know that the word (H)indu and Hindu are found there. Are you perhaps anti Hindu or Hindu phobic?
Loyola Marymount University was the first to establish Masters of Arts degree in Yogic Studies. Is there big dissension within the church about this?
This is an interesting question as LMU is a Catholic university and the programs delves deeply into the religious/spiritual aspects as well as exercise/health.
I think it's important to remember that what the typical Western person thinks about 'yoga', is something very different than the yoga as a spiritual practice/discipline. Most people think about exercises and postures and that's it. It's a workout for them. The danger is that there's philosophical things creeping in, also because many Western people are empty of spirituality, so if you add some 'spirituality', it sells better. So in this sense, it's a problem. But many postures were taken from the Western gymnastics in the 19th C. Originally yoga in Hindu culture was more about the discipline of the mind. Also non-Christian cultures, especially pagan ones, don't really understand the secularity, that is the division between the sacred and the profane, instead it's all mixed and intertwined. So for pagan cultures even dress, items, medicine, science, all of these is not independent from the religion, but always viewed as connected with spirits, etc. Early Christians were characterized not by their dress, so wherever they lived, they lived according to the customs of the place, but they were different in their love to each other - at least according to the letter of Diognetus. This is very unusual approach when compared to pagan cultures, where all those external things mark you spiritually as well (eg you need to pray in a special way, or do special gestures, etc.).
Yoga is eastern culture for Hindus, if you don't like don't practise
That's because the 'typical western person' involved in Yoga is a straight white woman; the most suggestible demographic in existence so much so they will straight up consider themselves evil for the way they are born. They are racist against whites, sexist against men, and heterophobic against their own sexuality enough they usually pretend they're bi to escape their own innate 'sin' of being 'born wrong'. In brief, they're idiots. And thus they are useful idiots for religious cults like Yoga.
Yoga will destroy your family because it is about connecting to Shiva which is the god of destruction and the lotus position is transexual just like Baphomet. Under the influence of demons of this kind you can not keep your husband or wife in the long run. Spiritually that will be impossible as a husband and wife relation needs protection from evil spirits and it needs a blessing from God.
Yoga is linduism shit, so don't practice it as it will destroy lindus in no time.
Also since 1492 90 million people have killed in the name of Christianity!!! How many have been killed for not converting in other religions??!!!
Have you ever looked into I$lam lady? What is this 90m.ur talking about....as you speak there are several Christians being attacked unprovoked in India....
Cite your sources & statistics! The most persecuted religion today are Christians!
Cite sources! Bhagavad Got a: Krishna instructs Arjuna to annihilate an entire people in war & Hindus have been forcing conversions ever since! Hindu wars against Muslims & Christians continue. That split India into Pakistan. Traditional Hinduism has warriors like Samurai! Calling Hinduism a religion of tolerance & peace is a joke. It is about Death. Suti. Yogic suicide by "kicking the frame" through willful stopping breathing. Hindus attacked the 19 Commandments as not of God because it says no murder & this is against Hindu negation of karma, for for tat! Being murdered is justice because Hindu fantasy says you simply got what you have in a past life!
This is very true! I have a friend of mine that is a Yoga Instructor 😂. Im gonna share this to her perhaps this can make her think about it as a Catholic 👍👍✝️
If you’re just exercising then it’s fine
I mean there’s Yoga then there’s spiritual practices in Yoga

Please educate yourself
I have done yoga. Its postures, stretches, and breathing exercises can be a very effective tool for developing overall fitness, developing discipline and stillness, and reducing anxiety and stress. The problem for Catholics is not the movements but probably 99% of instructors and probably an overwhelming number of practitioners are into new age spirituality, and they inject it into the practice. I would also say that many instructors overstep their expertise and will specifically say certain positions or movements will alleviate specific physical and psychiatric ailments. There is a good deal of pseudo science and spirituality associated with how westerners practice yoga. All of the instructor certification schools for yoga instructors are required to learn the spirituality. If in doubt, just do Pilate's. It exercises the body in many of the same ways. Or, instructors that are fitness trainers and aren't specifically "yogis".
Well said!!
The problem is and not just for Catholics, but all Christians, Jews and Muslims - obeying the first commandment. Which, by practicing yoga, breaks gravely. Stop doing yoga, go to confession, seek the Lord.
I had so many mystical experiences brought on by yoga and my teacher really didn’t understand it was a problem for me. During yoga, I would feel linked to my teachers mind and also different people body parts. I would see things in meditation that would leave me unable to return as the same person again. I watched for a couple months as a new world invaded my universe and shattered my understanding of reality. I really shouldn’t have been delving into this without somebody qualified to teach it. I was raised in a fundamentalist Christian house and had zero understanding of what was happening and still have not been able to find anyone I can relate with. When yoga works, it’s actually so powerful you NEED a qualified teacher.
@@macintoshimann9892 I actually stopped doing yoga since this post. I think it focuses the person too much inward as opposed to God. I think it makes the practitioner hyper focused on feeling good/self love that is not necessarily good for spiritual development as a Catholic.
@@johndastoli8572 really? That’s really interesting as what I like about it is I feel tuned to the others in the group. I’m not really motivated to do it alone even tho it does seem to really help my brain and body
Both are actually correct. Exercise, meditation ect all of that is very good for you, directly mentioned in the Bible as well. But anyway, say you happen to go to an actual "yoga class" then yes it is likely that they will be teaching OTHER things as well, most people who practice yoga are of the Hindu religion and do incorporate the "exercise" into aspects of their religious practices. Which of course you should not do. However exercise, meditation, spiritual development are all extremely good and half the purpose of studying scripture as well. Which those who do will see these things explained within scripture anyway.
Likely? Show me a chakra on a scientific anatomy chart. It's a straight up woowoo religious belief.

@@himachalarana3454who are the gods of yoga?
@@rebn8346 Namasthê. There is only one God. Hindus subscribe to the form, many forms, but underlying concept is 'Forms are many, God is one'.
The answer to your question is to say the question is wrong!. There is only one God and it is formless. It is with this formless that Yôga gives path to join. The Yôga âsnâs (poses) are a part of the process.
If any one tells you there is/are Gods, it is the starting first step of worshipping Sun God for instance, with the underlying concept that the physical sun is a representation of the ultimate God, who will illumine our minds and dispel darkness that we are separate from God.
Answer to your question is therefore, there are no Gods in Yoga, but the only one God that is the ultimate. Form (of any God) is a stepping stone to us, Hindus, not to Christians who will go to Heaven regardless of anything, for raising our level of consciousness.

@@Kumara1008 Good point well made - you just perfectly underscored my point for me - thank you!😉
Yoga is the missionary arm of Hinduism. The seemingly innocent postures are a form of worship. There are people that have become demon possessed simply practing Hatha (Physical) yoga. Sometimes the yoga mantras are names of certain deities. Sometimes just bringing in books on yoga can cause demons to manifest. There is a book called "The Autobiography of a Yogi" which is very popular. I have discerned that this attracts demons. The teachings inside this books are diametrically opposed to the teachings of Jesus Christ. The idea of reincarnation is opposed to the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. YOGA IS A BIG FORM OF IDOLATRY. 11738

@@Concerned_onenot everyone. But yoga with it's spiritual connection can be a portal. That's the discussion here. You never know what's going to come in, cause you don't live in a spirit realm.
@@Concerned_oneThere is an older video called "Pagan Invasion" with Matriciana narrating. This shows it.
I'm from India. Yoga is demonic What is Yoga?
The word yoga from the Sanskrit language means "connection". Yoga is the human endeavor to connect man with the Lord through body postures and breathing exercises.
Yoga is essentially considered by many to be an individual discipline, a way of life, a tool for self-improvement, a scientific art of maintaining physical and mental health, and a spiritual device. They say yoga is a good weapon to combat social challenges such as depression, stress, anxiety, workload, polluted food, environmental and media impacts.
Many of us think of yoga as a simple exercise that relaxes and tightens muscles. But it also focuses on the principles behind the gym.
Circa BC. Yamam in Yoga according to the Patanjali Yoga Sutra which originated in 150 years. There are a total of eight types of methods such as Niyama, Asana, Pranayama, Pratyakaram, Dharana, Meditation and Samadhi. But later in the 15th century katha yoga, which incorporated only two aspects of asana (a particular sitting position exercise) and pranayama (breathing exercises that inhale and exhale), became popular all over the world today, somewhat cleverly avoiding the philosophical logics that confront other religions.
Philosophical background of yoga:
Yoga is clearly against Christian philosophy. We learned that yoga is an attempt to connect man with God. There is a big difference between the two in their view of God.
According to the Hindu concept of thirty-three deities, all that is seen is God. It says that the Lord pervades everything in the cosmic average as a spiritual object without a dominion. But Christianity makes it clear that God is the one who created all the cosmic averages, including man, by His Word.
There is a difference between the two in the concept of manhood. The idea of yoga is that since all that is seen is God, man also attains the divine state through physical asanas and breathing exercises. It is as if Satan deceived Eve by saying, "You will be like the gods, knowing good and evil" (Gen. 3: 4). The Holy Bible is a creation created by God in his own image; Says that creation and creator cannot be one.
The idea of yoga is that man's inability to realize his superiority in the matter of his basic problem and its solution is the cause of all his problems and that he can achieve it by his own efforts. According to the Holy Scriptures man's sinful condition is the cause of all his problems; The blood of Jesus Christ removes all sin and cleanses him. It is a gracious gift from God; It is something that cannot be earned by effort. Yoga teaches one to focus on oneself instead of the true deity. It encourages him to seek his own conscience, preventing him from seeking Scriptural answers to life's difficult questions.
What's wrong with that?
That's right, yoga somehow benefits itself. Then what's wrong with that; It sounds to my ears that some people say that there is nothing wrong with just taking a yoga position and exercising, leaving out the philosophy behind it. That is unlikely to be right.
All forms of yoga are spiritual practices. Every yogasana position is the worship of Hindu deities. Physical asanas and exercises are inseparable from their spiritual involvement. In this regard, the journal Hinduism Today (April-June 2003) stated in its own words, “Separating Gautama Yoga from Hinduism is a deceptive act. Many yoga teachers do not know that its roots are in Hinduism and its spiritual purpose. ”
When diseases are cured by the grace of the true God, it is only by accepting that diseases can be cured by the power of evil forces. That is not surprising; Because Satan also disguises himself as an angel of light (2 Cor. 11:14). So one cannot become a deity by eliminating disease. But, because our God is the true God, He bestows not only bodily pleasures, but a perfect divine bliss on the whole soul and body. So do not believe all spirits, but test whether those spirits are from God (1 John 4: 1).
How it does that job is very important. Is it driven by magical power contrary to Scripture? Then it will ultimately bring about slavery, not liberation. So you have to have the mindset to test everything before accepting anything. Only then can the good catch up. While it is not easy to clearly define what is good and what is bad in alternative therapies such as yoga, one must embrace the mantra of "abstain from all that appears to be evil". Everything that does not come by faith is sin (Romans 14:23). So it is better to stay away from dubious activities.
Christian Yoga?
In recent years a new form of Christian yoga has sprung up, combining physical and breathing exercises with biblical meditation. Christian yoga is basically a word paradox. Can we describe someone as a Christian Hindu or otherwise a Hindu Christian? Does it secrete bitter and bitter water from the same fountain? (James 3:11). A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit; Scripture clearly teaches that the bad tree will not bear good fruit (Matt. 7:18). So it is very important to consider the root cause of the tree of yoga.
Preach the Gospel… Heal the Sick This is the sequence of the command given to the twelve disciples (Matt. 10: 7,8). Spiritual well-being is far more important than caring for one's physical well-being. Because, physical effort is of little use; Godliness is of value to all, because it promises promise for this life and the life to come (1 Timothy 4: 8).
Let the scriptures be our meditation; Let prayer be our training:
Biblical meditation refers to thinking about and embracing the truths revealed in the Scriptures to what extent they are relevant to us. David's Meditation Song. 119 are clearly repeated throughout. All Scripture is inspired of God (2 Tim. 3:16) and we are certainly worthy of meditation.
God speaks to us through the Scriptures; We communicate with Him through prayer. We know that even in difficult circumstances, Daniel knelt in his attic three times a day, kneeling before his God in prayer and giving thanks. Prayer is the best exercise in taking our problems to the Lord and seeking a proper solution.
Like Paul, who concluded: “If food makes my brother stumble, I will not eat of my flesh forever, so that I may not cause my brother to stumble.” We will lead the way.
Therefore I beseech you, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. This is the kind of worship you can do (Rom. 12: 1).
Well said brother 🔥✝️
Christians cannot tolerate anything outside their written bible. It's absolutely nothing wrong to practice Yoga
Yoga is to me is like a stretching program with a Hindu API.
Stretching existed in other cultures, so why not just model one with a Catholic API. Like really all it is stretching with rocking, wiggling, focused mucsle contraction/expansion and breathing out of different passageways with some mental imagery
Good creation on their part...but life goes on and so does the creating!

But for this young man, NO ONE will be saved unless we acknowledge Jesus Christ and EVERYTHING He taught, especially the Eucharist. Many Protestants, as well as Catholics, will acknowledge the Eucharist at the time of death, or they will not see God's eternal glory. No purgatory for a final purification, this spiritual prison Peter writes about in his First Letter Ch. 3. For Jesus Christ IS LORD!
Yoga is not stretching. It’s a spiritual practice that comes with a whole bag of spiritual concepts and believes. The purpose of yoga is “self realization”. Yoga is also inseparable from Hinduism. Physical yoga asanas are just a tiny fraction of what yoga really is. What is really upsetting is that they were teaching (at the ashram I received my training) that Jesus was a yogi himself and that his teachings were based on yoga, they presented such a distorted version of Jesus, different from what the Bible really says (they even had a picture of Jesus among their gurus and deities)…
We can enjoy the benefits of stretching/physical therapy and low impact exercises, we don’t need to practice yoga for that.
Jesus didn't learn yoga from Hindus as there were no Hindus existing in his time.
Jesus learned it from samanas(Buddhists) when he comes to Kashmir during the region of Gondophernes (A Zoroastrian dynasty which adopted Buddhism).
Unfortunately Christian religion inherited the Semitic creed of the ‘jealous God’ in the view of Christ as ‘the only begotten son of God’ so could not brook any rival near the throne. The Christian religion, in spite of its own broad humanism, it accepted the fierce intolerance which is the natural result of belief. Hinduism at large does not contain that type of intolerance because doing so would convey possessiveness over the divine not reverence to it. As a Hindu, I have no problem accepting Christ as manifestation of divinity. I have a problem with Christian scripture that demands strict devotion to only a single manifestation in the Latin tradition.
Then why do Hindus & Muslims slaughter each other? Why is the Bhagavad Guta about a war annihilating an entire people with Krishna directing Arjuna to conduct the slaughter? Why is there a Hindu warrior culture, as deep as Samurai? Why Suti? Why Hindu slaughter of Christians? Why indifference to suffering instead of compassion? Why Yogi suicide by stopping breathing?
I've practiced yoga for many years and it has helped me tremendously and has made me a better person.
So you have been practicing the Hindu religion and it works for you!
@@dharmayogaashram979indus didn’t invent sitting quietly and observing your kind. Wisen up! The name is a Hindu word that’s it!
You have connected your brains to your genitals to be more snake-like and invited the Kundali spirit (the spirit of the snake) to take control of you. Am I right if you have divorced your husband or quit your relationship with your boyfriend since you started getting involved with the Kundali spirit? This is so common. First thing this spirit attacks is human relations, especially family.
The toxic relation with the Kundali spirit through yoga will most likely destroy your family.
Yoga makes better person? How can if it's just an exercise make you a better person.
@@foodmaniac9339 By purifying you of negative emotions such as anger. It helps to improve the self regulation of thoughts, and helps to reduce impulsivitiy. Yoga is exercise combined with breathwork, and meditation (mindfulness).
So it works on the body and mind together, not just the body.
Yoga is exercise for your spiritual body. Just as there is weight lifting which strengthens the muscles, cardio to strengthen the cardio-pulmonary system. Yoga is to exercise / strengthen our spiritual body.
Spirituality is just a scam and there is no spiritual body that actually exist it's just a stupid creation of your mind which you ignorantly believe to be real.
Yoga stays in this creation. The goal is the problem. What you see as "spiritual" is still in the body, the Chakras which are connected to body organs. Each has subtle lights that can be seen through developing the psychic senses but these are still physical manifestations, like Krylian photography & monitoring brain waves. Jesus Christ is way above Brahm. Even Sant Mat, which absorbed a lot of Catholicism in it, and does speak about the Supernatural Region, [which hardly anyone gets into!!!] also accepts it as being the creation in typical anti- Aquinas logic of the Union of Opposites, which in reality only destroys. God is transcendent & also precipitated creation out of God, an oxymoron concept! Mix hot & Cold & you get Warm, the destruction of both hot & cold. There is no union of opposites. It is a trick.
@@elisehougesen6871 The goal of yoga is to unite the soul with the spirit and ultimately to Brahman according to the upanishads, yoga means union, it's not all about the body. The reason we work with the body, to purify it, is because the desires of the body often lead to sin, yoga's aim is to purify these desires, to consecrate (sanctify) the body as a temple for God's spirit.
The goal of mukti isn't brahm, but to the God beyond God as Miester Eckhart would put it. The goal is the ground of being which we call Brahman or what some call the God head.
Jesus fasting, which is a process to physically purify the body as well, fasting is also a yoga practice. Baptising the body in water also has a similar purpose, just because these processes use the body, doesn't mean they are completely body centered. Humans are a union of opposites, we are a union of a physical body, with a non-physical soul, is this not true? The spirit is a part of us that wishes to serve God, and the soul wishes to fulfil the desires of the body, the goal is to unite the two, so they work in harmony together.
If God is a union of hot and cold, isn't that a union of opposites? So is God is a trick, by your definition?
I don't know why you guys all think yoga is some sinister practice, it's really judgemental. Dozens of studies have verified the healing power of yoga. The devil never heals anybody, not one time in the bible is the devil shown healing.
Healing is a product of love, that's why Jesus was the supreme healer, the devil has no love in him, so he cannot heal anybody of anything. You guys always want to compare one religion to another, like it's a competition. As Hindus we love Jesus. My guru taught me to meditate on the Lord's prayer.
I'm not here to say who is better than who, or who is higher than who. I'm here to bring us together, as a family, beyond our differences, because that's what love does. These false idols of divisiveness have cause much blood shed, I'm not here for that. The world has enough of that.
Sir,the core of Abrahmic 3 sibling faiths is to create a basic difference between its monotheistic formless God and humans/creation.
The analogy is with an artist/creator and his art work/humans or creation.
And this is the basic hypothetical conflict between God and human with which Abrahmic 3 sibling religions are inflicted with since their inception resulting in perennial conflicts since their inception.
There is an impermeable unbreakable wall between God and humans/creation. That is why the most important characteristic of Abrahmic Gods is Judgemanship.which can be beneficent and merciful
yet punishes severely in hell but offers heaven too.
The simplest another analogy is Master-Slave.
I'm Christian from birth. I've studied yoga from the spiritual perspective. I no longer practice any of it bcz I was experiencing feelings of being in like an uncharted territory. Nevertheless I object to calling everything outside Christianity a strictly demonic thing. There's other ways to think about things some of which may be beneficial vs strict Catholicism which is going thru life with the horse blinders on until at some future point something that was once thought of as bad is realized to not be so. Remember the intention plays a very significant role in how we think about things. Therefore many things are neither evil or bad in and of themselves so much as how we think of them. Remember a knife is neither good or bad of itself but rather how we intend to use it
@Jennifer D'Ambrosio for the longest time early Christians adopted & used works of of the ancients, like Plato, Aristotle. This helped the church to grow & prosper. Do a little research and even you too may learn something more than nothing...
Amazing how someone with an Italian sounding name wouldn't know this, of all people. Where did you grow up?
@Jennifer D'Ambrosio So you want to decide for everyone how it all should be? Questioning not allowed? How nice of you. When I'm questioned I feel compelled to respond to see where there problem is.
Catholic hierarchy themselves are doing this constantly
I pray several rosaries a day for many years & attend mass when I can. I do spiritual reading often but do not limit myself to spiritual reading only. A wide knowledge base is needed to live but n this world. The .more narrow way is for the dedicated religious.
@Jennifer D'Ambrosio Alright then
You all commenting on this person who is giving their point of view.....are completely brainwashed.
If you truly believe in GOD, well then you need more of GOD/JESUS.
True to a certain extent but wrong if it goes into the Church of All Religions as CCC 836-845 does. Compare with Baltimore Catechism #3 of 1949. I.D. The "new and strange doctrine" condemned by St. Paul.
yeah, the fact is that yoga was desacralized before it came to the West. I've seen that the warm-ups in kung fu from China are identical to many of the movements in yoga. So I guess people in India adopted them from China and not the other way around. So I do not believe that yoga postures are forms of devas, that was probably what happened they adapted the postures to deity forms.
Kung fu was taught to the Chinese by an Indian Buddhist monk named bodhidharma
Yogis will tell you that the exercises were developed by Yogis living in caves in order to exercise in a small space to stay healthy. Hindus originated Yoga.
I’m a Christian and I practice yoga but during my classes when it is meditation time I pray to Jesus. When I end I pray to Jesus I don’t buy into any new age or put any meaning behind poses besides stretching.
He contradicts his whole point when it comes to surya namaskar. If yoga is worship to demons according to them, then is sun a demon, is moon, earth, water? It's just a cheap attempt to stop people from doing yoga. And how can Christians say that hindu gods are demons? These are baseless assumptions.
He did not say that. Dont put your words into his mouth. No one is calling sun a demon. The act of worshipping a son is not spiritual, that's what he is saying. I think u can't understand what he's saying.
@@foodmaniac9339 so sun is not demon but if we pray to sun then it becomes demonical. So according to christianity worshiping sun, moon or even earth becomes demonic, then why do churches are made why is there holy water. The commandments are just basic rules, not anything special, and how insecure is gid to say there is no god other than me rather than other may see differently. There is nothing special in christanity like yoga that is why priest attack yoga. Wake up abrahamic religion is man made, to control people by scaring them. If you don't follow us then you will go to eternal hell.
Sun is neither a demon nor a god.
What is it yoked with? That is the issue!
Amen. A lot of people are missing this essential point.
What about just guided meditation. I have social anxiety and meditation helps me. But for many years I was not able to practice it. Is meditation a worship of another god? I am Christian.
Who is guiding? The problem with Mantra is it shuts out the constant impulses of God because the "I" predominates in its Will. Consult with a Traditional Catholic priest for guidance. Novus Ordo has absorbed Eastern meditation practices to suit it's all religions church, as CCC 836-845 states. This is a new doctrine condemned by St. Paul.
So I’m in the military and some of the stretches that they have us do before PT are actually yoga stretches . They call it something different like not by any yoga name but it is the same stretch. Also when you look up stretches in general on UA-cam the stretches that these personal trainers have you so are also yoga stretches but again called something different. So how is it different if stretching like that just stretching as people naturally so certain of those stretches to loosen their body and the yoga version ?
Additionally I think a lot of people using who are former instructors just in general tell people to stay away from it who for example maybe someone wanting to turn to Christianity and not knowing much about it they won’t know how to discern from a exercise style yoga class and a the new age spiritual centered yoga they have going on right now, where the instructors will use a lot of new age language like finding your center
, inner self along with chanting yoga matras , burning incense, banging gongs. Etc
Because particular yoga named poses worship particular demons. Also youre opening your body up to welcoming demons. Research kundalini
Are they doing the ritual sequences? For example, the warrior poses are a sequence of a murder among the gods of yoga, and dedicated to them.
Stretching random stretches is another thing.
There are many kinds of Yoga. You should check out BHAKTI YOGA since it has more in common with Christianity.
Also practice the ones that work for you as some are not safe.
There is maybe different kind of yoga but it's still taking source in the same root. It all brings the same fruit.
I agree “why call it yoga” however a lot of home workouts have “yoga” in them. The instructors are not “yoga” teachers but they are doing what they are calling yoga. Generally there is no
spirituality involved but I would always avoid sun salutations and programs with the namaste at the end.
I have been avoid “yoga” workouts specifically Les Mills Body balance which is labeled a yoga fusion. Yoga is such a buzz word in the fitness industry but are these exercises divorced from hinduism? My child do “yoga” at school is that yoga safe? I have been researching this matter for months.
You dont do namaste.. you just do amen.😅
Don't do yoga nobody is forcing you to do so 😂😂😂😂
I think it's important to know that the demonic doesn't care about your intensions, remember these practises come straight from the demonic (Hindu Gods) so if you do it, by default you are worshiping them...
Why yoga posture.. maybe because behind the postures is some logic and actual knowledge behind body mehanics... I mean you can walk only the right way.. so there is only the one way to keep some balance. Well I was walking on the hill and when I stoped the body automatically adjusted legs in a warrior pose..
If you did yoga before and you realised it’s wrong go for confession ✝️
Well i think its much more better than any stretching scientifically
It's absolutely alright to do Yoga. The only thing Christians wish to see is an entire world believing in Christ. Who is the devil, demon or evil is very obvious, just read the world's history and you can see how Christians are unable to tolerate practices or faith outside their religion. Look at how Native Americans are systematically reduced and their culture completely destroyed.
You know almost the poses Name in yoga is related with an animal and the pose itself shows an animal like figure ,animals are sometimes infected with demon ,demon likes to be with animals if they can't possess humans ,
Dude u need treatment mental treatment but congrats as earth is flat

@@meenapatel1648 he never spoke that. He is warning Christians to be careful about it. Not to get involved into its spiritual aspects. Most Christians don't know it and just follow what is thrown at them. He is not asking Hindus to stop yoga. He is asking Christians to stop if it's beyond exercise.
Cite your sources. I have a teaching degree, studied Hinduism/Sikkism/Lutheranism/Novus Ordo/Traditional Catholicism for total of 60 years & he gave an accurate definition if Hinduism. Those without facts resort to insults.
@@foodmaniac9339He defined Hinduism accurately as well.
Yoga is not just an exercise. Body stretches in yoga is not harmful. But those twisted body postures make you to draw high energy and you move out of paradise. Thats how demons formed. They became greedy and wanted to become like God. And learned many ways to draw high energy or life force from the cosmic field. This create confusion within and chaos outside.
First of all people misunderstand yoga and then blame it when they have bad experiences. To name one, no the Kundalini at the base of the spine is *NOT* an actual serpent. And the worship of the sun is not an actual worship. The sun embodies strength, perseverance, boundless magnanimity. These are virtues that benefit us. Should we turn away from them? Webalso gain strength from foods. Should we stop eating bc God Himself didn't put it on the table? From thes yoga discourses I can see that "Christians" are just as full of nonsense as anything else
Yoga and Hinduism do have a lot of emphasis on the self or self-realization. But, it’s a fine line. It is about seeking God and becoming one with God. Christians become one with God through Christ (Eph 5:22-33).
All of your so called knowledge about something including yoga or Christianity is collected from something you heard or read and almost nothing is based on your own experience. Thats the reality for majority of people and yet everyone is trying to present them self as knowledgable insted of just saying I don't know.
@@andrejfranjic5059 Yes, and one can only say so much in a short comment. I’m not sure where you are coming from. The Christian side or the Hindu side. Are you a Hindu or a Christian?
@@DannyTrussell Raised Christian but I dont know what exactly makes me one.🤭 That's the point. Before someone speaks you can't say who is who.
@@andrejfranjic5059 LOL. But a person can know if he/she is a Christian or not. It’s clear in Scripture how to become and be a Christian. There is clarity if one wants to be a Hindu, Muslim, etc. Each “religion” has their distinctions on belonging. They have their differences from the others as well.
To be a Christian is to confess Jesus as Lord and believe that God has raised Him from the dead. To believe is not just mental ascent. It is to adhere to and devote to Jesus Christ. It’s to be saved by Grace Ephesians 2:8-10.
Any ideological diversity, “Spiritual ideological diversity” in this case, within the church or outside the church should not be opposed as long as they bear evident fruits of love and forgiveness. This is the simplification Jesus gave us to avoid conflicts, and injustice to the God created Beauty of Diversity, which is very evident throughout his creation.
Does yoga bear love and forgiveness. What nonsense are you talking.
Jesus was able to eat and was touched by St Thomas, yet he walked through walls and ascended into heaven.
U can practice whatever you like but calling other religions or aspects of religion demonic is just stupid….shows how tolerant u r

Research it more deeply & you will find there are no Tibetan records of Jesus visiting there. These lies come largely from Blavatsky, a Russian occultist active in overthrowing the British Raj. Brits were cruel Anglicans but at least they stopped Suti & built a railroad & legalized Christianity & suppressed the horrible cast system. Unfortunately, they were also anti-Catholic. Hindus claim Jesus as a Yogi simply because Hinduism absorbs everything in its path. They claim to have originated everything which they have simply absorbed

And also the 3rd point of your 1st example video saying that hinduism tells to focus on oneself, this is correct but you also have to see your first point of the same video where you say God is in creation which what we mean is God is in us also.

Lifelong Catholic here.. there is an enormous amount of ignorance about the physical benefits of yoga in the whole video and comment section. Yoga is extremely beneficial for the body while not hurting joints as other workouts provide. It "feels" good to practice yoga because it opens muscles/tendons/etc in ways that help the body... man I wish people could enjoy yoga without immediately thinking "is this devilish"... the devil has won if that is the thought we immediately jump to given the physical and cerebral benefits by stretching the body.
Small addition - any habit without a strong faith background can turn into an evil endeavor. Yoga can be evil just as being a glutton is evil for eating food.

ouais, le fait est que le yoga a été désacralisé avant son arrivée en occident. J'ai pu constater que les séances d'échauffement dans le kung fu de Chine sont identiques à beaucoup de mouvements en yoga. Donc je suppose que les gens de l'Inde les ont adoptés de Chine et non l'inverse.
So why not just practice western gymnastics? I think it’s interesting how Yoga studios are popping up all over the place, but gymnastics doesn’t seem like it’s been embraced as much by the mainstream. I’m not a gymnast, but it seems like even basic gymnastic forms and exercises can benefit development of the body in terms of strength, flexibility, and aesthetics.
I will admit though, that as a 27 year old getting into any form of gymnastics seems daunting and it often seems exorbitantly priced. I don’t want to go to the Olympics I just want to get stronger and look better.
Yoga is very much more accessible to the average person while gymnastics is very demanding. And the short answer is not many people want to do anything physically demanding

THE TRUE RESURRECTION AND OTHER FALSE RESURRECTIONS. END TIME SPIRITUAL BATTLE IN INDIA VIDEO.
Many years ago when I was a youngster and had many indiscriminate reading habits, I read anything that came to my hands. I advise Christian parents to pre-censure reading and viewing material for their progeny.
At that time in the early 1970's, a book on yoga came into my possession. This book was "The Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahansa Yogananda. In this extensive autobiography, the Hindu mystic, Mavatar Babaji the false Christ of India. raised a man from the dead. I often wondered about this for years. I later on - through spiritual discernment - discovered that these Indian mystics did not resonate with Jesus Christ or the God of the Bible (Genesis 1: 1). In 2 Corinthians 11:14-15 it reads - "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light."
There is heaven and hell which they do not explain. Thousands of people are having outer-body-experiences and near-death-experiences of heaven and hell, yet these mystics bypass it completely. They are having them all through youtube and the books that are written about it are voluminous. The Bible talks more about hell than heaven, and Jesus says that there is no reincarnation for the Christian. The Bible states that it is appointed once to die, after death then the judgement (Hebrew 9: 27). There is only salvation through Jesus Christ. His blood cleanseth us of all unrighteousness. I believe is was Sri Yukteswar that said salvation come thought self effort. No, that is not right, it is through the blood bought death and resurrection of Jesus Christ on the cross. It is not by self-effort, it is by grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross (Ephesians 2: 8)
In a video, there was an occurrence when this Hindi Guru performed a miracle similar to Jesus. When the person died the soul wandered on earth and the demons involved made it return to the body when the Guru gave it life. They are able to perform counterfeit resurrections, great miracles and healings many under the power of demonic principalities. Sai Baba and MaAvatar Babaji are able to materialize objects out of thin air and affect teleportations. Some are able to materialize and dematerialize into thin air. Read "The Latent Power of the Soul" by Chinese Christian author Watchman Nee. They do this to win souls to their false religion of Hinduism with 330 million gods (Fallen angels).
In the presence of two Christian missionaries, this did not work for the dead woman went to hell. She could not be resurrected by the Guru because God did release the woman from hell. It was only when the Christian missionaries prayed that she was able to return to her body. This was the true resurrection in Jesus Christ. Remember what Jesus said: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live (John 11: 25). Remember that the magicians of the pharaoh were able to turn their rods into snakes. But Moses' snake eat up the other snakes.
Jesus requires a life of holiness (Leviticus 19: 2) and constant repentance (Acts 3: 19). Sanctification was thrown out of the window long time ago in the churches. It has to be practiced for it gives you power. Prayer also raises your voltage, fire and gives you power as well.
Yes, Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life. Only every born again Christian has the resurrection Spirit in Him. In 1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17 your dead bodies will be recreated, upgraded and glorified and be taken to heaven by Jesus (1 Corinthians 15: 52). Remember that Jesus' blood washes you of all sin (Hebrew 9: 22). Reincarnation goes against the Rapture and the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.11468

One major problem is saying yoga comes from “Hinduism”. Yoga is a spiritual practice that comes from India. And of course there is a wide range of philosophies. The dualists and nondualists have been arguing for centuries and yet you claim all of Hinduism in nondual.
Its like saying Christians are crazy bc they believe in Joseph smith.
Anyone speaking of god should hold themselves to a higher standard when talking of other faiths
yoga comes from the Hindus. India is a country--duh.
Sorry but the catholic church, The original true church of Jesus has always condemned yoga. If you have practiced it you MUST go to confession to wash away the demon invited in. It may severe but Hindus who turned to Christ have said themselves they felt demons come out of them after absolution from confession.
Yoga never helps christians to unite with their creator jesus christ...
Because jesus never said in the bible " Do yoga and unite with me "
But in John 6 : 56 Jesus said "Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them"
That means the only way to unite with christ is by eat and drink his body and blood...
Yoga never helps a person to unite with jesus christ...✝️
13:08 those "other gods" ...those "Hindu gods" are actually *DEMONS.*
You have clearly no idea what Yoga means or is. Yoga is certainly comatible with any true religion.
Religion are themselves not true. So your arguments is baseless.
Ask the priest how many young boys he keeps company with!
