QnA with Sri Sri
Q: What is Yoga? How can it help bring peace?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Yoga is a technique which unites the
body, mind and spirit. Yoga relieves you from stress and tension. It is
stress that causes weakness, anger, jealousy and all the negative
emotions. When you get rid of stress using breathing techniques,
meditation and some simple exercises, it helps your body and mind and
creates a sense of well-being and happiness from inside. If you’re well
and happy you will not be violent. When someone engages in violent
activity, know that behind the violence there is anger and frustration.
We have all done yoga as kids. If you watch a child from the time it is born to the age of three, it would have done all the yoga exercises. The way a child breathes is different from the way an adult breathes. Breath is the link between the body and emotions and by attending to the breath you are able to soften the emotions and get rid of negative emotions.
