Yes! Do Marjarasana everyday? Yes! Do you do Janunasana everyday? Yes! Do Utkatasana daily? Yes! Look, we do at least five to six asanas daily. Housewives get slightly more seats. You already know some names of these asanas. But you must have thought that when we do this asana… see! We do shavasana every day which means we sleep. After getting up from sleep, standing, stretching the whole body, raising the arms, spreading the legs, laziness is called Tadasana …

Body is needed. But do we do Shavasan right… the answer is yours. Do you feel refreshed when you open your eyes after doing shavasana? If the answer is no, you have missed the funeral. How it says Shavasana means to calm the body. Deep breath. So full that oxygen reaches from the toe nails to the ends of the hair of the head. Baba talking to every part of you, I am because you are, so if you are being neglected, tell me immediately, Baba. If I am believing you, then hurt me and tell me, Baba… Breathe in the air that is giving you, Baba… Connect your mind to each and every part. Give thanks to every part. Take a deep breath With each breath, merge the negative thoughts, the negative events of life into infinity. See if you feel refreshed when you wake up.
Do yoga as a passion, not as a fashion. Do it as an integral part of life, not as part of work. Exercise daily like you breathe daily. If you want to be successful in life then do yoga. As I say, do shavasana.
