[EDITORIAL]
Editor's note
S
ilence and Yoga have gone along together since
eternity. We have all listened to stories of sages
of the Vedic times who would sit quietly in
Siddhasana in the forest and do nothing for the
whole day. They'd just observe. Some of these
sages went on to observe things that no machine has
been able to do so far. Obviously the power of the mind,
body and spirit can be tapped and totally harnessed
through the tools of Yoga. Inner Silence plays a huge role
in this. One has to use it to know its power just like
Gautam Buddha or Mahatma Gandhi did. In this issue,
we get to understand about the power of silence, its
correct interpretation and implementation. In the
travelogue section, our crew of Travel takes us to a
remote and unexplored village inside the Binsar forest
which is completely virgin and lies in the leopard
territory. An experience of a lifetime and a great piece of
information that can be turned into an opportunity
by our readers.
US based Yog Guru and Acharya Girish Jha writes about
the origin of Yoga and its journey to USA. We cover Yogi
of the East Shashi Kumar from Patna performing Yoga
asanas and pranayam under a banyan tree for inspiration.
This issue features Interviews of noted celebrity and
activist Milind Soman, and also India's award winning
Naturopathy practitioner and Yog Guru Dr. Anil Jain who
has performed 88 Yoga asanas at Lake Mansarovar near
the legendary Kailash Parvat. In this issue, we have tried
to bring to you a good mix of spiritual features, Yoga
illustrations for practitioners and guided experiences of
some remote meditators and Yog Gurus. This apart, we
have news and info about events from the world of Yoga
that you might like to attend.
