Lord Shiva Wants Everyone to be a Yogi

Lord Shiva is the sole light of truth and the eternal life force. He is the fountainhead of knowledge and also the best knowledge-giver. There are many stories associated with Him in which He has opened the eyes of seekers & devotees and enlightened them.

Once Goddess Parvati asked Lord Shiva, when does an ordinary human being with a seeking heart attain the ultimate wellbeing?

To this, Lord Shiva says, when a person successfully meets with someone special with whom he is separated since birth, he attains the ultimate wellbeing.

Then Goddess Parvati says, seekers are separate from their ultimate goal, God, how they can meet Him?

Lord Shiva said, for highly religious as well as detached seekers, for a self-contained and an abstinent seeker, it is necessary to attain Yog. Through Yog, only anyone can meet with his true aim. No matter how devout the person is, if there is a lack of Yog in life, that person won’t be able to achieve the ultimate aim. Beatitude, the eternal bliss is that aim.

What is Yog?

Understand that the term ‘Yog’ here is not Yogasan & Yogic exercises, rather, here Yog means ‘getting connected to God through ‘Dhyan Yog’. Yog is ‘connection’.

So, Lord Shiva wants every seeker to practice Dhyan Yog and establish a connection with God, but how?

How to be a Yogi

When you are praising God through devotional songs, immerse in it as if you have lost your consciousness. Connect yourself with that Higher Power. Nonetheless, if you are virtuous, but unable to connect with God, then understand that you are yet to get available to your inner realm. You are simply roaming in the outer world.

Through practice and Dhyan Yog, you can rise above the outer worldly affairs. This Yog is the remover of all kinds of separation, including your separation from God. To become a Yogi, consciously work on shaping your habits, lifestyle, and attitude to be more consistent with the philosophy of Lord Shiva.

This will bring you closer to God and it will also work to mend your broken heart. Yog is also a healer; it bestows the ultimate wisdom upon you; it helps your mind attain concentration.

It is Yog only that makes you fearless and enables you to move inward motivating you to seek the blessings of God.

Lose yourself and invite the miracle

So, lose yourself in the process of finding your goal which is a connection with God. Once that happens, you achieve your aim. Moreover, this should be one of the key purposes of every human being to reach the Higher Power and therefore Lord Shiva wants every devotee to be a Yogi.

Therefore, in this God-gifted journey of life, do your duties, but along with that be a Karm-Yogi. Also be a Gyan-Yogi, Bhakti-Yogi, or Sanyas-Yogi. Whatever you do with it, your life must contain an element of Yog in it. Then you can connect yourself with God.

Once that will happen, miracles will start happening in your life. For that, go deep and lose yourself. Learn the techniques to concentrate and attract those things in life that you want, including the ‘highly-rewarding connection to God.
