The Yogi Way of Life

We too can radiate the tranquility, warmth, and joy attributed to the spiritual masters.

The word “yogi” means “to realize the wisdom of pure awareness.” To do this, many yogis from around the world have gained a deep level of mastery in meditation, spiritual development, and yoga. From years of dedication, they have cultivated an extraordinary ability to focus their complete attention on connecting with spirit and gain a profound level of control over their minds and bodies. Although we may not wish to dedicate our lives to becoming a great yogi, we can learn and find ways to apply their beneficial principles to our lives.

Like all yogis, we can make it a priority to connect with spirit. A few moments spent focusing our attention inward can allow us to see life with fresh eyes. We also can expand our view of the world by educating ourselves like the yogis do before they attain yogic mastery. Yogis study more than spiritual disciplines, such as philosophy, the arts, and medicine. Another way to emulate a yogi is to practice the science of yoga, which has the power to support both our physical health and mental wellness — and cultivate greater mind-body harmony. In addition, yogis chant prayers for the well-being of the world. Through the mindful practice of chanting, positive thoughts, and meditation, we learn to have compassion, feel empathy, and look for the good in every situation. We also become aware of our ability to create change in the world with our actions and intentions.

Yogis have been called "supreme artists of life" for their ability to treat every situation like a spiritual endeavor. As we aspire to express patience, compassion, and peace in our lives, we too can radiate the tranquility, warmth, and joy attributed to these spiritual masters.
