Authentic Yoga Tradition is achieving excellence in SHREYAS and PREYAS. There are two beautiful words in Sanskrit, used in all yoga and spiritual literatures over 6000 years. They explain the quality and quantity in human life. Preyas indicates quantity in human life and Shreyas points’ quality in life. During the last 300 years, modern man has abundance in the outer space but his inner space is the same or has even gone down in quality. There is inner bankruptcy at the cost of outer riches (quantity). At AYT we aim at discovering the Shreyas (Spiritual or Inner word) to allow the manifestation of all material riches (Preyas) with honesty, integrity, creativity , harmony and happiness.
Choice is there?
Authentic Yoga Tradition is at the center and a creator while Preyas is at the circumference and the creation. Shreyas while creating (Preyas) entered into what it created like ocean while creating waves, entered into every wave. But wave can only realize that it is an ocean when it merges and become one with ocean. Shreyas is the path of self-discovery that allows us to discover, experience and become one with the ultimate reality that manifests in peace, love, harmony and drops all sufferings and problems.
The choice is there – either we live, move and act in this world with Preyas (personality or body, life, mind, intellect, ego, possessions, Sex, Authority and Money etc) and ignore, reject, and suppress what is at the center of our Being(Shreyas) or live, move and act in this world with Shreyas ( Real Self, Peace, Wisdom etc) and allow it to manifest in Preyas at all the time.
Pleasure or peace
Authentic Yoga Tradition is good and quality. Preyas is pleasant and quantity. Goodness and quality are eternal while pleasant and quantityalways changes. What is eternal transcends space, time, and causation. Whatever changes takes life into pleasure, fear, duality, anxiety, and violence. Nevertheless, when man chooses SHREYAS and allows PREYAS to manifest and vibrate with theSHREYAS, life discovers the ultimate reality, peace, harmony, love, and wisdom.
Buddha, Krishna, Shiva, Moses, Jesus, Lao tse , Socrates and over 3000 yoga and spiritual masters and many more in the present world had consciously chosen the path of SHREYAS and allowed it to manifest in PREYAS. Their message, inspirations, teachings, guidance are relevant even today as it were when they lived. Further, if they could discover the SHREYAS within, why not intellect, outer world and we as we have been offered the same body, life, mind.
Conscious evolution at every moment in life – Authentic Yoga Tradition
Authentic Yoga Tradition is evolving from falsehood to truth; from ignorance to wisdom and from death to immortality while Preyas is avoiding, rejecting and ignoring the “reality” within and accepting all that causes sufferings.
There is always a choice before man – good and pleasant. Goodness is a state and pleasant is a movement. A state is eternal and never changes. Pleasant is attractive and always changes. What is attractive is short-lived and changes. An attraction that brings pleasant experiences in life is simply a pointer to what is good. It shows that some goodness that dwells deep within. However, what is beautiful today does not stay beautiful tomorrow. Wealth pleases one day and brings displeasure the next day. Further, it also brings fear of losing it but because it is power of exchange, we have to lose it to secure another pleasure. However, we can use this wealth to secure what is good, eternal and reality that dwells within. Shreyas is quality while Preyasis quantity.
Self-Discovery is the Goal
Authentic Yoga Tradition is discovery, experience and realization of what is eternal and good. It is an experience of what is permanent that dwells within. It is realization of “what we really are”. It knows the “real self” hidden behind what is pleasant, attraction, passion. It is the center. The center is seldom visible or manifest in life. What is visible is termed as Preyas. Preyas is the material world including body, life, mind, intellect, ego and all what we have and own. Shreyas is what we “really are.”Shreyas is a state, center, innermost presence, Real Self, ultimate reality. The attributes of this real self are
Truth, Wisdom (non-dual consciousness), pure awareness, Spiritual Ecstasy (Ananda), and Eternal love.
