Welcome to Yoga Kalyana

“My Mind needs peace, needs happiness”

This is the cry of the mind of every individual in modern society

All over world, every human being, be black or white, brown or yellow, African or Asian, European or American, tall and short, fat and thin, women or men, all human being are after two things:  

They are in search of happiness or joy

and secondly

They are in search of how to avoid suffering.

This two are the search of every man and both are related to the internal aspect of the life, which means they are concerned with the internal body, the finer body, what you call Mind. Life is not only in the mind, the inner aspect, it covers external aspect also. For both places, basic need is peace of mind. Ultimately success of the life is seen in the form of “What is the level of peace of the mind”. Again, peace is also concerned with internal, so quality of life, failure or success of live is directly measured at the level of mind. But because modern man, majority of modern people are living one sided life that is only external life or material life or senses life, they take their search with respect to external aspect. Peace, happiness, joy, bliss everything are stationed in internal body, Mind. Pleasures, another aspect of senses, they are dependent on the material outside. You cannot be successful in external world in procuring wealth and everything if you don’t have peaceful mind.  

Ultimately peaceful mind is the instrument that is dealing both worlds. 

So, mind should be peaceful whether you go after external world,  

or whether you try to search in the internal world. 

Peace is the minimum need of the life. 

Now what ultimately comes to me whether I search in the name of happiness or in the name of joy? Peace of the Mind. Peace of the mind means this mind doesn’t have any agitated movements water flow in the river but is flowing very slow that we cannot see the movement on the surface. 

We can say that the river is very peaceful, but water is not moving. Water is moving there is not movement seeing with eyes on the surface, but water is moving. See sea water, is going nowhere but how much agitated it is and how much movements we can see on the surface? So, we say hey man you are going nowhere why you are moving so much I’m very agitated is like that mind will moves, mind will do everything but without any visible movement on the surface and it is performing every duty.  This state of mind is called: Peaceful state of mind. That we are searching. Because in this state of mind, mind sees the things as they are, mind acts in knowledge we say. When agitation starts, what you will see in the things in this agitated state will not be real, what really is, like it starts seeing the snack on the rope, we say ignorance has come to him, he has not knowledge this illusion is came to him. This is synonymous words. It is shows agitated state of the mind. When this happens, when mind comes under illusion or ignorance, intellect is never, intellect knows that we have to search for happiness, joy, peace, but conscious mind who is living is carry this ignorance of this things. Intellect is saying we are searching happiness, remember, because finally living part, the execution part is done by the conscious mind, and he is saying we are searching for happiness remember, don’t get lost, but this agitated mind it will approach I’m searching my happiness and an agitated mind is always external oriented mind, whatever it will try to get it will be outside. So, it is searching his happiness outside, it wants to be joyful and is finding his joy outside, this all are state of mind. If I have a lot of wealth with me, I will be happy does who have wealth are they happy? This proves that happiness is a state of internal body, so if I get lot of wealth I will be happy, and when I will be happy I will have a peaceful mind, this is a common man those who are living under illusion or ignorance, this is the basic concept. That is not truth. How I can understand? First, we have to come to a state of peaceful mind, then you will see the reality. How I know this thing, go to a man who is living in this state, then tell him you are peaceful? And start asking questions, and he will tell you this thing, how I do? He will tell you how he did. Follow it and it will come to you.
