So many yoga online videos available and for free now, makes me very happy, compared to ten years ago, when references are very limited. I still try to learn everything new about Yoga, even after ten year of being interested with Yoga my interest is not satiated. Yoga teachers and Yoga class now abound these days, and so many books, and websites that are very helpful in my quest to learn more about it. All were schooled in India in the traditional practices of the Master Yogi’s, I also learned that there are so many Guru’s in Yoga. Yoga has a lot of branches too, but all of them lead to one thing, to reach a kind of balance in a person’s life to maintain peace in oneself in day to day dealings with the outer world. I am more inclined to the modern practices with variations that suit a hectic modern life, with progress and diversity of one’s life, though staying true to the original practices and poses is still the best. Abstinence of meat in the diet is one of the main principles of Yoga, there are a lot of people that could attest that this practice is healthy, it’s very difficult for someone to completely follow, if resources like vegetables aren’t readily available in the local market. A modern variation for this, is to stay away from red meat, and go for chicken or sea foods instead, and if vegetables are available then it should be always the first choice. I have not eaten any red meat, like beef , pork and lamb for about seven years now, and I have not missed them at all.
