spiritual Vs material

Often we see life as a dichotomy - either "material" or "spiritual" and consider these as mutually exclusive... thinking these two to be isolated paths where a being has to choose only one. This is one of the fundamental errors that we make, because the fact is that we are here to experience- experience what we had desired. The so called "spiritual path" or the path of Yog in reality is an all inclusive journey... but this journey begins only and only when one finds ones Guru and finding a true Guru is possible even in the commercial times that we are in today. On the path of yog desires are not suppressed, rather one experiences whatever one desired and goes beyond,  holding the hand of  ones Guru. 

It’s a wrong perception to think that the spiritual is divorced from the material.  It is only your level of spiritual evolution that decides what you ask from Divine.”-Yogi Ashwini

difference between ‘meditation’ and dhyan?

"The difference between meditation and dhyan is that between shoonya (this is not to be confused with shoonyata, here it refers literally to zero) and poorna . Dhyan is state of complete awareness-inside and outside- it is a Poorna state, whereas meditation is a big zero. In meditation what a person does is he/she thinks of a certain thing and therefore it is basically no better than day dreaming, where as in dhyan you are aware of everything .Swami Satyananand Paramhans (Bihar School of Yog) described meditation as a ‘moodh ’ state or a lower state. Now a days, the subject of yog and tantra have been totally misrepresented. I was watching a programme on a ‘spiritual’ channel and there I saw a very elderly woman sharing her thoughts on ‘spirituality’. So I thought let me listen into what she has to say. After her discourse she made the viewers do dhyan and sat herself in dhyan as well. When it was over, she came out with some sort of jerk in her body. Anybody who knows the st

Animal Welfare Initiatives

Protecting the weak and helpless, be it a plant, an animal or a human being, is a #dharma of every single human being and #dharma is the lifeline that keeps the creation going... says Yogi Ashwiniji. thats why.. Animal Welfare forms an integral part of the many service initiatives that #DhyanFoundation  has undertaken to help aid creation. The volunteers rescue, rehabilitate and take care of any animal in need, and have started dedicated programs for cows, dogs, monkeys and birds.  Know more: http://www.dhyanfoundation.com/causes/animal-welfare.php Feed A Dog Help a Monkey Save A Cow Befriend A Bird

Gyan Vs Knowledge

"There is a huge difference between knowledge and gyan . Let me give an example. When I was appearing for my class 10 exams, I found that as it is I am bad in maths apart from that I was weak in Geography as well and in our school whoever used to fail in two subjects used to fail in that class. So I still remember that I memorised the whole book, chapter-wise and in the exam for each question I wrote the entire chapter. So ultimately the examiner must have thought that I have written so much (even though irrelevant) that he gave me passing marks- exactly 33 %. So, you may know entire chapters on Yoga but the  gyan  will still not be there. When you do yog or  dhyan ,  gyan  comes to you constantly. As you progress  Gyan  comes to you step by step. When you receive  gyan  you take one step, then you receive more gyan and move to the next step and so on and so forth. This progress is not dependent on time. Gyan will come to you only when you are connected to your Guru; without thi
