We human beings are in a constant search for happiness. So far we have not been successful because we identify with the material.
Is like the children in Christmas morning when the children open their presents in such a rush to quickly realize that the gift does not represent their expectations.
That constant identification with the physical body makes cosmetic surgery a multimillion dollars industry yielding the same results as the Christmas morning syndrome.
Why are we so insecure about our inner worth?
We are constantly bombarded with commercials about becoming more beautiful less wrinkles, great looking bodies and models that run between twelve and fourteen years olde demonstrating how well this wrinkles creams work. Funny wright! Of course when I was that age I had no wrinkles.
It is time to find what we are looking for but, we must change the direction in which we are looking, it is time to look inward.
The Treasure lies within. Walking the Path towards True Nature is joy, is happiness is the only way.
Inside all human beings lies, compassion, love, understanding and as we get closer to Truth we shine and emanate all of this attributes and share them with the world.
I am wishing all humanity to discover the inward journey and among all of us shine the Peace and Love that we like to see in the world.
Happy, Peaceful and Loving New Year to all Humanity.
with Love and Blessings.

Achieving the ideal state of being is the number one and principal goal of spiritual discipline. Whom do you want to be?
Do you want to be in union with Krishna? Do you wish to be an enlightened being? Would you like to be a active participant of the constant work of the Cosmic Mind or Transcendental Purusha? Some people make this decision and the effect of these decisions influences the entire humanity.
You need to dive deeper into your own heart and your own spiritual nature and there you will find your spiritual ideal. We at Sunshine Yoga Academy
guide you to find that space within your heart and to dedicate all your spiritual practices toward the achievement of your ideal nature.
You do not need to give up wealth or marriage or a good job or any other mundane objects. The road and the destination are one and the same.
What is important is what do you do with the transitory wealth and power and ask yourself if that transitory wealth will be for the benefit of those that come behind you.
The questions is, can you achieve the state of LOVE just by simply loving? The next questions is, Whom do you wish to be?
Love and Blessings to all and Happy Meditations.

When walking the path of Self Realization we encounter two aspects.
The first one is non attachment also called dispassion and the second one is practice. The more we practice the more we achieve non attachment. Our minds become more clear of imprints or memories and we are able to live a pleasant life without turmoil and egotistical reactions to what we used to believe as mine or yours.
This way we step out of the constant duality, good, bad, right wrong, pain and pleasure. This is the way in which we walk the Path of Yoga.
Abhyasa and vairagya, practice and non attachment lead us to the Truth.

Even the finest men can sink into the depths of sorrow. There are many examples of great Yogis who experienced moments of grief and sorrow during which they lost touch with the higher reality and became overwhelmed by the strong power of mundane attachments.
Sorrow, infatuation and other emotions weaken the body and take away the physical strength of a healthy person. The history of mankind is a testimony that infatuation for alcohol, an imbalanced attitude toward sexuality and other addictions weaken the human strength.
The endocrine glands react instantly to stressful situations, and so during the state of anxiety and depression, certain symptoms are noticed. Dryness of the mouth occurs when the salivary glands do not secrete sufficiently . When receiving news about someone we love , the shock can make us cry, the body might begin to tremble. Evenness of breath and the motion of the lungs , which play a vital role in the regulation of the body are disturbed. The heart beat becomes irregular and the blood supply to the brain is inadequate. These are only some of the ways that infatuations and emotions interfere with the body’s normal responses and have the power to create and imbalance in the body.
Because of such and emotional imbalance the body begins to build up toxins and the pores loose the capacity to expel toxic build up. This disturbs the equilibrium in two systems of the human body, the systems that purifies and cleanses the body ( pores, lungs, kidneys and bowels ) and the systems that nourishes the body ( liver, spleen, heart, brain ).
When we get caught up in attachments and emotions we loose the mental and emotional equilibrium and we loose touch with the source and strength within.
Human weaknesses are very dangerous and destroy human endeavor if they are not put aside and if they are not dealt with using inner strength and pure reason. Attachment and addiction both lead to emotional and physical suffering.
Many mental and physical disorders are the result of attachment to objects of the world. If the object of attachment becomes threatened, one becomes afraid and because of the fear of loosing the object , one looses mental balance. An imbalanced mind is the source of much misery and attachment is the cause of all misery.
