The Yoga Sūtra of Patañjali is a collection of Sanskrit sutras (aphorisms) on the theory and practice of yoga - 195 sutras (according to Vyāsa and Krishnamacharya) and 196 sutras (according to other scholars including BKS Iyengar). The Yoga Sutra was compiled sometime between 500 BC and AD400 by the sage Patanjali in India who synthesized and organized knowledge about yoga from much older traditions.[1][2][3] The Yoga Sūtra of Patañjali was the most translated ancient Indian text in the medieval era, having been translated into about forty Indian languages and two non-Indian languages: Old Javanese and Arabic.[4] The text fell into relative obscurity for nearly 700 years from the 12th to 19th century, and made a comeback in late 19th century due to the efforts of Swami Vivekananda, the Theosophical Society and others. It gained prominence again as a comeback classic in the 20th century.[5]

Yoga of light awaken chakra energies through the triangles of lightTheotis Davis
Drawing on yoga's original teachings, Yoga of Light reveals how to awaken and energize the chakra triangles of light with the practice of asanas, breathing, visualization, and meditation. Exploring the universal web of light and our place within it, as well as the body's electromagnetic field, or aura, yoga expert Pauline Wills provides a concise introduction to the ten major and twenty-one minor chakras instrumental in forming the yoga triangles of light. You will discover how visualizing and, eventually, feeling these triangles as you practice the postures energizes the body, allowing you to connect to your own inner light. This wakes up all cells in the body and imbues them with increased energy. The triangles also firmly connect us to the sacred geometry of the universe, aligning us with the greater cosmos.

Maha Yogi, Adinath, Yogeshwar, and Adiyogi are some of the names of Lord Shiva. He is part of
the Trinity, Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesha, that controls the cosmic universe. Shiva is the
destroyer who possesses the power to eradicate all evil from the Universe. Few are aware of
Lord Shiva's deep connection with Yoga.
History of Yoga:
The history of yoga in India is rich and ancient, with roots dating back thousands of years. Yoga is a spiritual, mental, and physical discipline that originated in ancient India and has since spread across the world. It encompasses various practices, including physical postures (asanas), breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation, and ethical principles.
The origins of yoga can be traced back to the Indus Valley Civilization, which existed around 3000 BCE. Archaeological excavations have unearthed seals and artifacts depicting figures in yoga-like postures, suggesting that early forms of yoga were practiced during this time. Moreover, it is said that Yoga was developed as a part of the Tantric Civilisation which existed in India and all parts of the world more than 10000 years ago. In archeological excavations made in the Indus Valley and Harappa and Mahenjodaro, now in Pakistan many statues have been found depicting the deities resembling Lord Shiva and Parvati performing various Asanas and practising meditation. These ruins were once the dwelling place of people who lived in the pre-vedic age before the Aryan civilisation started to flourish tradition. Shiva is said to be the founder of Yoga and Parvati, is his first disciple. Moreover, if we look back to Bhagwat Gita, Lord Krishna said "He taught the original Yoga first to Vivasvan, the Sun God, who passed it on to Manu, the primal human sage, who is called the son of the Sun. Krishna states: I taught this imperishable Yoga to Vivasvan (the Sun God). Vivasvan taught it to Manu (the first king and law giver).
The earliest written records of yoga are found in the ancient Indian scriptures known as the Vedas, which were written between 1500 and 500 BCE. The Vedas contain hymns, rituals, and philosophical teachings, including references to yogic practices. The Upanishads, which are philosophical texts associated with the Vedas, further elaborate on the spiritual aspects of yoga and its connection to self-realization and liberation.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
