Kundalini Yoga versus Investment

Friends, Kundalini Yoga and investment seem to be opposite subjects to each other, but there is also a deep connection between them. Just as a man wants to get maximum profit immediately with a short-term investment, Similarly, with Kundalini Yoga also, but both are accomplished with long-term practice. Just as investment fails due to uncontrolled mind, similarly Yoga can also fail due to uncontrolled mind. For example, due to greed, a person can invest more in the wrong company. Similarly, in the greed for more yoga benefits, a person can do yoga in the wrong way or beyond the tolerance limit of the body. There can be loss in both the situations. Just as investing without adequate information can result in losses, similarly practising Yoga without basic information and etiquettes can also result in minor losses. Just as long term investments bear fruit after a long time, so does Kundalini Yoga. Just as short term investment can be successful very quickly only with proper information, time, power and good opportunity, in the same way Tantric Kundalini Yoga also proves fruitful very quickly only if done with adequate knowledge, time, power and good opportunity. Just as if a short-term investment is not always successful, and a person can lose his capital and become a pauper, in the same way, if Tantric Yoga is not successful, a person’s old bodily power can also get weakened. Just as successful short-term investment takes a lot of man’s money at stake and returns even more money in the form of profit, similarly successful Tantric Kundalini Yoga also takes a man’s more power at stake and returns it amplified in the form of Kundalini awakening. Just as in short term trading the risk is also high despite the potential for high profits, so too is the case with Tantric Kundalini Yoga. Just as money gradually increases money, similarly the practice of yoga also gradually increases yoga. Just as wrongly spent money is destroyed, similarly wrongly used yoga power is destroyed. Just as money invested in the right direction keeps on increasing, similarly the power of yoga invested in the right direction keeps on increasing. Just as increased wealth helps in increasing itself by forcing one to perform religious activities and with this also helps in attaining God, in the same way, increased Kundalini Yoga also helps in increasing itself by forcing one to perform religious activities and in this way also helps in attaining God. Just as the desire for more money makes a man do all kinds of good and bad deeds, in the same way the desire for more Yoga-happiness i.e. perfection i.e. God makes a man do all kinds of deeds. Just as a person does innumerable deceitful things to attain wealth, in the same way many people do sinful Panchamakarika type meditation or work to attain the best Tantrik Yoga. Just as growth of wealth is the main goal of life, similarly growth of yoga and happiness is also the main goal of life. Just as money increases by investing in good companies, similarly by sharing the knowledge of Yoga among deserving people, Yoga increases. Just like investing money in a bad company leads to loss of money, in the same way, sharing the knowledge of yoga among undeserving and negative people can also lead to loss of yoga. Just as moving away from everyone else and investing by one with his own personal understanding and style increases his wealth, in the same way, tailoring yoga to one’s needs can also increase his Yoga benefits exponentially. Just as money neither belongs to anyone nor it has enmity to anyone, but its purpose depends on the person who uses it, in the same way, someone can do good deeds through Yoga, and someone can do bad deeds like Tantric black rituals through Tanta Yoga. Yoga itself has nothing to do with these. Just as the common people increase the wealth in the treasury by paying taxes, but only a few people can claim their rights on it, not all, similarly all the gentlemen have a hand in creating a yogic environment, but only a select few people have the facilities of a yogi, not all. Just as the common worldly man attains satisfaction and happiness in his silence, similarly the common gentleman attains his true Yogananda within his own mind by staying away from the desire for fame etc.
