Shivpragyam: Using the term “yoga” in conjunction with anything in the tradition denotes that it is a whole path in and of itself. The difficulty is how to approach it, assuming it is a full route in and of itself. You might take a different tack if it was only a routine procedure. There would have been various ways to approach it if it had been an exercise. A different approach would be appropriate if it were an art form. Another angle might be taken if the purpose is just amusing.All of these things have been stated about yoga and are still being used today, therefore I am offering them as examples. “Recreational yoga” and “health yoga” are terms used to describe the practice as if it were an art form. They consider yoga a service since they refer to it as an art form. No. The very addition of the term “yoga” makes it seem like a whole course in and of itself. The usual use of the term “Mudita” in various Indian languages denotes adamancy. This is the standard you should aim for. Your body is telling you, “I’ve had enough.” You, however, remain unwavering. Your thoughts tell you, “I’m done. I’m not going to continue.” However, you are so determined that you just do it. There are limits to how far we can push the physical form at this point. Mudita yoga is a way of life that encourages you to broaden your comfort zone. As things are, the majority of people only have a narrow radius of comfort around them. If you can expand your comfort zone to include everything, you can feel at peace no matter where you are or what you’re doing. You won’t even bat an eye if I force you to stand on tiptoe. Because you are stubborn enough to annoy the devil, hell will not accommodate you. When one is on the path to realizing his full potential, his physical form is no longer an obstacle but rather a stepping stone.
