Ashramaa

ncing the true bliss of life which is already there. There is no Path to Freedom. You are Freedom. Until our freedom is manifested biologically, psychologically & emotionally, it remains simply an idea but life is not an idea. It is a vibrant reality in the here and now. Mukta Ta**ra Yoga makes us aware of the subtle energies of chakra frequencies, spiritual bodies, pranic breath bodies, sounds, visualizations and the five senses which are connected with the pure consciousness to untap the free flow of life, which is called Kundalini in Ta**ra. To understand and freeing these energies, we use practical philosophy inspired by Kashmiri Shaivism or Himalayan Ta**ra, the essence of The Heart Of Shiva. What is the difference between Mukta Ta**ra Yoga & normal yoga practice? Practical Implications of Ta**ra Yoga are very different to normal yoga as it has evolved in a non-dualistic way. In normal yoga practice, we are using our body, mind & senses to achieve self centered goals, which are always based on hopes and desires somewhere in the future, so our present is sacrificed for the future. It is dualistic. Just Body-oriented yoga is usually concerned with the alignment of the body but ignores the spiritual alignment of an individual which is the main purpose of all Indian Mysticism. Mukta Ta**ra Yoga is non-dualistic and goes beyond body,mind and senses. We are using our body, mind & senses to express our true freedom (also called Pure consciousness by Shiva), which is already inherited in the present moment. The moment you start looking or searching for happiness or freedom outside or inside it just becomes an escape. Mukta ta**ra makes us aware of this freedom which is already there. We just get distracted with the objective world. In Mukta Ta**ra Yoga no worldly, spiritual and emotional escape exists. Mukta Ta**ra Yoga does not believe in following blindly any system, Guru and ideology, it rather supports self awareness born out of direct observation. Awareness makes us present to face daily life as it comes and responding with the fresh intelligence of the moment. What is the difference between sexually inspired ta**ra and Mukta Ta**ra Yoga? Mukta Ta**ra Yoga is not dependent on the other for love or transformation, because it will create dependence that eventually creates slavery and sufferings. Mukta Ta**ra unfolds your true love and freedom which is already there and it naturally gets shared in daily life without the idea of sharing. A person who has love in his heart does not seek for it in others. All seeking and searching for happiness, love and freedom shows that it is not there and how can we share something we do not have. True love is love for all. When love gets directed to only one person it becomes lust. Sharing lust can be mistaken as love. Mukta Ta**ra is complete freedom from dependence of other. When you are not dependent on others emotionally, physically and mentally then you truly can love. That love will not have a shadow of sufferings. There is no true relation between two isolated egos but two freedoms always meet naturally. When "I" is not, life is. Love is not an idea and the idea of love is not love. When all ideas disappear love appears. Love is not a skill and it can not be learnt. It is our true nature. Shiva calls it pure consciousness. How can it help us? Mukta Ta**ra Yoga is choiceless awareness in the moment. Ta**ra is not against the senses, it uses senses to experience life in its all colors. It doesn’t teach us to control our mind, but rather makes us aware of it, so we can use it to support our true nature. Ta**ra helps us to feel our own presence in order to live harmoniously. How does it work? We express our freedom through a range of carefully developed Ta***ic asanas (yoga postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), mudras, bandhas,yantras and mantra (the science of sound). Mukta Ta**ra Yoga is not used to gain or achieve freedom – through it we can express the freedom we already have. How has it evolved? Jivan Mukta, the founder of Mukta Ta**ra Yoga, has spent his life exploring and practicing many systems and philosophies of spirituality. He noticed that most of these systems are there only to expand themselves financially, not the individual. They always try to form you into something you are not. Systems should support the individual, not the individual supporting the systems. Other systems are created to attract followers, in the hope they will set them free somewhere in the future. Mukta Ta**ra Yoga is about the present. Instead of following it, you can use it to sustain yourself physically, mentally & emotionally in daily life. Inner order is born out of your real intelligence and creates the outer order in your daily life naturally.
