what i realize, that when we practice yoga & meditation regularly for the long time,like
traditional hatha yoga method
the eternal power (Chakra) of our body and brain boosts intensely, and we consider our self more
superior then others, the word “I” strongly rises in subconscious mind, thats why yogins wrote
Yoga Vandana (Yog Prayer) in Hath Yoga Pradeepika. A simple meaning of yoga Prayer is, i bow to… See More
the divine science of Yoga which lightens all the human beings equally, which make my body strong
and keeps me close to that almighty.
yoga prayer has not any relationship with dreaming…!

Alexey Yogi:
Sanjeevji, I’m not saying your practice or the prayer you use are dreaming. I’m not questioning Hatha Yoga Pradeepika. I think you misunderstood my words and my intentions.
