“But What Does Yoga Actually Do?”

AvatarHigh Priestess Lydia Coventina6 min to read

Yoga means yoke, to unite – specifically, the body, mind, and soul. Yoga works these 3 areas, bringing harmony, increased awareness, and increased self-control. It also allows for the fullest expression of one’s highest self, and the individual personality, in the best and healthiest possible manner.

Something to note: most people, when they hear the word “control”, they think of it in the negative. It has both a negative and a positive connotation, so free yourself from thinking of it in only the negative. In this sense, controlling oneself does not mean repressing, suppressing, or stifling oneself. It simply means that you are in control of how you act and when and where; you have the freedom to choose how you act and react in direct relation to the pure identity of your highest self, instead of automatically giving in to emotional or mental reactions, or psychological programmings.

The enemy, as always, tries it’s hardest to control (in the negative connotation) yoga and yoga practitioners. They advise people to do yoga without eating first in the morning, and being vegetarian, if not vegan. Starvation is one of the common tactics used in brainwashing and mind-programming, as it allows the person to become too receptive to programmings and thought-forms. Try to eat when you need to eat, and as much as your body needs.

Yoga heals the body, mind, and soul. We are not just spiritual beings, nor are we just material bodies. We are both, plus consciousness. Yoga is not like regular athletics that work only the body; nor is it like passive meditation that works only the soul; nor is it an intellectual pursuit that only works the mind. It unites and harmonizes all, strengthening all, empowering all aspects of our being. Yes, including the mind, as explained in my post on Increasing Awareness, which is to be done with as many yoga asanas as you are able to easily and conveniently do, gradually building up and expanding your consciousness throughout your body, and beyond.

To further explain what yoga does: The body has 144,000 nadis, which are energy channels and pathways throughout the entire body. They all connect to the Solar Plexus chakra. The main nadis of Sushumna, Ida, and Pingala in the spine are empowered through the practice of kundalini yoga, but the rest of the nadis need to be stretched, strengthened, and cleared. Only a proper and thorough yoga practice can do this. This is one of the reasons why people can’t advance after the death of the physical body, and why we must be incarnated again and again – the physical body is absolutely essential for spiritual advancement.

Simple stretching is a basic introduction to the physical practice of yoga. As you advance, you will utilize your mind and consciousness in each asana, using your breath to allow for opening and healing of the nadis and the circulation of your spiritual energy, otherwise known as your Qi, or bioelectricity. Don’t think this is overly complicated, it is actually quite easy and basic as you do it, much of this happens naturally. It is just what happens when you do yoga.

Yoga, as well as pranayama and meditation, increases our bioelectricity levels. When our levels are consistently higher, we are stronger in every way, and we can use our energy to improve our lives. People on a low spiritual level are subject to many curses and negative planetary influences and transits. Being on a higher level raises us to where much of this no longer affects us. We radiate a spiritual light, as opposed to the average degenerate who sucks the life force and spiritual energy from others. Many people feel like they are struggling to stay afloat, struggling like a person fighting against the tides. A consistent yoga practice will raise you up and allow you to shine brightly and have strength – strength of physical body, strength of mind, strength of emotions, and strength of spirit. This all-encompassing strength gives unlimited potential for everything good and positive in our lives; in our advancement towards Godhood; and in our benevolent influence upon the common people on our planet. And it of course makes us stronger warriors in our fight against our enemies.

Getting back to how yoga helps the mental side of our being. The benefits of a yoga practice on the mind cannot be acclaimed enough. Putting your physical body into a position, feeling the stillness of the mind as you concentrate your thoughts and mental effort into holding the pose, focusing on your breath while maintaining balance and posture… can you feel it? It calms, strengthens, refreshes, and nourishes the mind. Anyone suffering from anxiety, mental illness, or mental hyperactivity will benefit immensely. People who are weak-minded or anything of the sort will feel stronger in every way.

If you do not do yoga, as I know a lot of members here simply aren’t into it, then this can hamper your advancement. Energy/qi will stagnate in various areas of your body, and can manifest in abnormal and harmful ways. We are all individuals however, based on our past lives, inherited physical genetics, and so on. Some people don’t need much yoga at all to advance, while some other people may need a lot of yoga daily. If all you currently need is 10 minutes a day, then consider that at some point in the future, you might need to do more. And it might be that you only need to delve deeply into a yoga practice for a period of time, to work through whatever spiritual, physical, emotional, or mental obstacles you have, to reach a higher level, and then perhaps you can lessen your practice afterwards. This is all individual.

Yoga also re-trains the body and mind. A lot of people have defections in their body, and mental and emotional blockages. A proper yoga practice, combined with eating healthy food (which includes eating meat), and spiritual cleaning of the soul and chakras, will heal the body and mind. Yoga will help your muscles, nerves, organs, lungs, bones, spine, digestive system, hormones, brain... literally everything.

Certain asanas can feel unpleasant, not enjoyable for us. But as we advance in yoga and master the asanas, walls come down in the mind. Breakthroughs of all types often happen after we achieve the mastery of an asana we previously had trouble performing. Even just doing a modification of a difficult asana, held long enough, can accomplish this.

In closing, don’t ever look to yoga as being something weird, difficult, or strange. There are endless free resources online and in library books to teach yoga. Many videos too. Try some, see what feels good for you, and let your practice grow on it’s own!

But lydia I feel very very weak ,after doing Kundalini yoga and I don't known what to do .

This is normal, you use alot of willpower and increase your energy flow alot.

It's an exercise and you'll feel drained as your soul is constantly awakening further, using energy to purify, expanding in size etc.

How do I contact expert magicians on the site?

Just browse around and get to know people. Some of us are strong, and humble. Some weak and arrogant. And a mix of both.

a good few of us have accomplished alot and are really genuine and wise. Pythia who founded the joyofsatan website wrote a page called "Satanic witchcraft" that explains alot of magic techniques.

Thank you for your wonderful words
Well, a thief came into my house. and stole some things
But the problem is that my kittens have disappeared
There are two possibilities the thief took them or they ran into the street when the door was open
I'm tired of searching and I really want to find them
I will never forget your help
It might be funny to some
But there are people who are very attached to animals
Please help, I am a beginner
Maybe a demon can tell me where they are or bring them home or something

Some of the info is a bit outdated written almost a 15 years ago, and could use some rewording and maybe rewriting but you can learn alot of great things from reading the sermons from Pythia and Zevios Metathronos.

Goddess bastet and Lilith are two who would help you to get to the bottom of this. To contact Lilith just use Satan's sigil.

You can use a pendulum with the help of a map to find their location if you are strong enough. If you were a master meditator you might also be able to see the connecting beam of energy between yourself and them. https://templeofzeus.org/Pendulum.html

I am from Egypt. Cases of sadism towards cats are rare
Hard to hold 4 kittens
That's why I think they ran away or were playing and took to the street
Or take a cat or two?
If only there was a way to find out where they are accurately ؟
As for the pendulum I will try even though it always gives me random answers

You should use the raidho rune

Isn't there a person who can communicate with a demon to find out where they are?

Some advanced members you refer to, I would call them communicative, friendly and kind. They are not humble, a superior cannot be humble because it does not make sense. Others, however, are obviously arrogant, hostile and indifferent.

I forgot to say that this depends not only on the level of spiritual development but on several factors. And so, we have both hostile and friendly inferiors and we have both hostile and friendly superiors.

I'm sorry, I'm too weak and I have my own problems right now. You're going to have to take care of it yourself.

Check all the pounds and animal shelters. Go through your neighborhood taping up wanted posters offering a reward. It's been days, who knows what has happened by now.

Do you think I didn't?

Yet often those who have an egopathic approach are the weakest, in the sense that they become defensive about qualities they lack, whereas the strong ones have no problem admitting their limitations and thus usually apply this same approach to others, without being judgmental as they don't need to assert their superiority.

Then people can have different communicative approaches, and personalities with whom they get along better as shown in their NC, but this has nothing to do with belittling others, or acting all high and mighty.

Obviously, there are many different people here -- of different ages, levels, education, etc. Besides that, our tasks and duties are not in an ideal situation and conditions, such as cold and uninvolving anonymity. However, we are okay and doing very well. Surely things will be much better for future generations but also for us when we come back.

Guys I have a few questions about yoga, and I thought it would be to write them here ... if for example I interrupt the daly section in the middle and continue after 5 or 10 min (and an example) and then continued, is there any problem ?. .. Another question is, there are three types of yoga, do you have to do all three during the day? ... How long should you do yoga, is there a specific time? And the section needs to be changed or that basic can it be used all the time?

Hello :)

Yes, you can interrupt a yoga session and start back into it. I have done this before. It is not ideal, but it's fine.

3 types of yoga? Are you including breathing exercises as yoga? Hatha and Kundalini are generally what we call yoga, although yes everything else technically is yoga but we are talking about physical asanas here.

Do what you can, when you are able to. You can build up as you advance. I like to do KY in the morning and hatha at night, but you can do what works best for you.

Some people keep it basic even after many years. I personally need to challenge myself and learn new asanas every so often, this helps with my advancement.

For how long, go with what works for you. We are all individual. 5-10 minutes daily, or more than an hour, whatever you need :)

Very interesting and nice writing. I was looking for “Kundalini Yoga Basic Spinal Energy Series KY kriyas” video where someone would show how to do it correctly, but I don’t trust those videos and I do as it showed in pictures, maybe someone knows where I can find right video of these?

Hi, there!

I know Lydia has already given you some very useful videos to watch, but I came across a video demonstration of the Sat Kriya, which is part of the Kundalini Yoga Basic Spinal Energy Series, and I thought you might find it useful.

I used this video long ago too. This dude is very informative, Sadguru has given him the nickname:"the posture master".

I am reaching towards a green apple.

Thanks Lydia you are great. 8-)
Yes, I had included the breaths😅 to include everything.
As for stopping the exercise it happened to me once and the question arose. I guess I'll keep the basic one for some time it looks good to me.
Hata Yoga is perfect for the night.
