二十個重要的心靈教導 -施化難陀(Swami Sivananda)聖者
這二十個教導包含了所有瑜伽修行的精髓 。一個人如果全心全意地照此修行,將可以把行動瑜伽、虔信瑜伽、智慧瑜伽和勝王瑜伽合而為一。這些是迅速和有效發展培養人們自我身體、心理、道德和心靈各個層面不變的關鍵。
1 梵時 (BRAHMAMUHURTA)
每天凌晨4點起床。梵時(Brahmamuhurta)對修行是極為有利的 。從早晨的4點到6點30分或7點,這段時間內完成所有靈修。將使靈修獲得迅速和最大的成就。
2 體位法(ASANA)
面對東部或北部,以蓮花坐(Padmasana)、 單盤坐(Siddhasana) 或任何坐姿(Sukhasana)進行咒誦(Japa)和冥想半小時。之後逐漸增加至三個小時。練習倒立式(Sirshasana)和肩立式 (Sarvangasana)可以保持健康和性能量 。定期做些簡單的身體運動,如散步等等。做第二十輪輕鬆、舒適的呼吸(Pranayama) 。 做呼吸時不要緊張。
3 咒誦(JAPA)
您可以唸任何咒語(神聖音節) ,如唵(Om)或唵喃無那拉雅那雅(Om Namo Narayanaya) 、斯里南(Sri Ram)、悉他南(Sita Ram)、斯里南加雅南加雅加雅南(Sri Ram Jaya Ram Jaya Jaya Ram)、唵那瑪哈希哇雅(Om Namah Sivaya),唵喃無薄加伐達伐蘇得伐雅(Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya) ,唵薩拉伐那薄伐雅那瑪哈(Om Saravanabhavaya Namah),哈哩唵(Hari Om),或嘎雅特哩(Gayatri) (一種神聖的吠陀咒語) 。根據您的喜好或習慣,每天重複唸一百零八次到2兩萬一千六百次。 基督信徒可以唸主耶穌或聖母瑪麗亞的名。 帕西、錫克教徒和穆斯林可以分別從波斯古經、格蘭斯希卜或古蘭經選擇一個聖名或咒語。
4 飲食紀律
只吃純凈的食物。 不可吃辣椒,羅望子,大蒜,洋蔥,酸性食物,油,芥末,阿魏膠。注意飲食應有所節制( Mitahara) 。不要超過胃的負擔。 一年應該有一兩次,維持兩個星期不吃那些頭腦喜歡的飲食。吃簡單的食物。 牛奶和水果可以提高專注力。 正確的飲食就是保持生活健康的良藥。 享受美食是一種罪過。 維持一個星期或兩個星期不吃鹽和糖。 您必須能夠僅僅靠大米、dhal(一種帶辣味的印度菜。用蠶豆、豌豆或小扁豆製成)和不含鹹菜的麵包而生活。
不要在dhal中加入過多的鹽,也不要在茶、咖啡和牛奶中加入糖。 非素食的人應盡可能地逐步改變飲食習慣直到完全不食肉為止。如此他們將獲得極大的益處。
5 靜坐冥想
準備一間有鎖和鑰匙的單間房來靜坐。 如果做不到這一點,那就找一個房間的角落,用塊小布幔或帷幕隔開。保持房間一塵不染。
6 自修
每天花半小時到一小時,一方面得到純粹的思想(Suddha Vichara ) ,一方面系統地研究薄伽梵歌(Gita),羅摩衍那(Ramayana),往世書(Bhagavatam),毗濕奴千名(Vishnu-Sahasranama),拉利塔千名(Lalita-Sahasranama), 阿迪蒂亞利達雅(Adityahridaya), 奧義書(Upanishads) ,毗濕沙達 (Yoga Vasishta),聖經(Bible),效法基督(Imitation of Christ), 桑德可蘭經(Zend Quran),全藏經(Tripitakas),格蘭斯希卜(Granth Sahib)和其他宗教書籍。
7 心智的提升
用心記誦一些祈禱文,如祈禱經文(Slokas) , 讚美詩(Stotras)等等 ,在開始咒誦或靜坐之前,一旦就坐下後即不斷地祈禱。這將快速提升心智能力。
8 清靜梵行
非常、非常小心地保持根本力量( 開創性的能量 Veerya )。 Veerya是上帝的活動或表現( Vibhuti ) 。Veerya是一切的權力。 Veerya是所有的財富。Veerya是生命、思想和智慧的本質。 本教導不只是針對單身的人而言。 有家室的人也要盡可能遵守。他們必須盡量穩定和配偶間的婚姻關係。 這是非常重要的。
9 慈善
依據個人經濟條件,每個月、甚至每天來定期做慈善。千萬不要忘了做慈善。即使要放棄一些個人的欲望,還是要定期做慈善。
10 親近善知識
完全遠離損友、吸煙、肉類和酒類。 不斷地親近善知識(Satsang)。不要養成任何壞習慣。努力積極發展良好的品德。
11 禁食
Ekadasi日 (印度太陰曆中,每兩週的第11天)實施禁食 ,或只以牛奶和水果為食。基督徒必須在每兩週的星期日實施禁食。穆斯林則在每兩週的星期五實施禁食。帕西可以每兩週選一個合適的日子實施禁食。
12 念珠
把念珠圍繞在脖子,或是放在口袋裏或晚上放在枕頭底下。這將隨時提醒你上帝的存在。 空閑時就轉珠。不管你正從事什麼活動,應該隨時不斷地稱唸聖名。
13 專注禁語
每天花幾個小時來專注禁語(Mouna)。 保持沉默期間不要作出任何手勢或發出噪音。
14 講話的規範
無論如何也要講真話。少說話。 說好話。總是說出鼓勵的話。從不譴責,批評或勸阻。對小孩子或下屬不要提高音量及咆哮。
15 知足
降低個人欲望。如果你有四件衣服,就減少兩三件。過著幸福、知足的生活。 不要自尋煩惱。精神上脫離物欲束縛。過著樸素但內心豐富的生活。 想想那些擁有不及你十分之一的人。與他人共享。
16 愛心的實踐
絕不傷害任何人。非暴力是最高的美德。用愛、寬恕(Kshama)和同情(Daya)來控制憤怒。投入愛心和感情來服務病人和窮人。這是對上帝的服務。
17 依靠自己
不要依靠別人的服侍。 依靠自己是最高的美德。
18 自我檢討
每天就寢前想想當天所犯的錯誤(自我檢討) 。學習班傑明富蘭克林的做法,每天記下心靈日記和自我改正記錄。 如此每天持之以恒並找出解決方法。 不要念念不忘過去的錯誤。
19 做好份內的職責
請記住,死亡時時刻刻都在等待著你。 不要逃避你的職責。維持單純的行為( Sadachara ) 。
20 記得上帝
從醒來到睡前都要一直把上帝放在心中,其他時間無論是否從事工作,也不能分心。
不停重複祂的名字。把自己完全交給上帝( Saranagati ) 。
這是一切靈修的根本 。 可以助你得到解脫。所有這些靈性準則必須嚴格遵守。你絕能有任何鬆懈的想法。

20 Important Spiritual Instructions
by Sri Swami Sivananda
These twenty instructions contain the very essence of all Yoga Sadhana. Karma, Bhakti, Jnana, and Raja Yoga will all come to one who follows them whole-heartedly. They are the unfailing keys to quick and effective development and culture of the physical, mental, moral and spiritual self of man.
1. BRAHMAMUHURTA
Get up at 4 a.m. daily. This is Brahmamuhurta which is extremely favourable for Sadhana. Do all your morning spiritual Sadhana during this period from 4 a.m. to 6:30 or 7 a.m. Such Sadhana gives quick and maximum progress.
2. ASANA
Sit on Padmasana (lotus pose), Siddhasana (adept's pose) or Sukhasana (any pose you like) for your Japa and meditation for half an hour, facing east or north. Increase the period gradually to three hours. Practice Sirshasana (headstand) and Sarvangasana (shoulderstand) for maintenance of health and Brahmacharya. Take light physical exercises as walking, etc., regularly. Do twenty rounds of easy, comfortable Pranayama (breathing exercises). Do not strain yourself while doing Pranayama.
3. JAPA
You can repeat any Mantra (sacred syllable), such as pure Om or Om Namo Narayanaya, Sri Ram, Sita Ram, Sri Ram Jaya Ram Jaya Jaya Ram, Om Namah Sivaya, Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya, Om Saravanabhavaya Namah, Hari Om, or Gayatri (a sacred Vedic Mantra), according to your taste or inclination, from 108 times to 21,600 times daily. Devotees of Christ may repeat the name Jesus or Hail Mary, Mother of Jesus. Parsis, Sikhs and Muslims may select a name or Mantra from the Zend Avesta, Granth Sahib or Koran respectively.
4. DIETETIC DISCIPLINE
Take Sattvic food. Give up chillies, tamarind, garlic, onion, sour articles, oil, mustard, asafoetida. Observe moderation in diet (Mitahara). Do not overload the stomach. Give up those things which the mind likes best for a fortnight once or twice in a year. Eat simple food. Milk and fruits help concentration. Take food as medicine to keep the life going. Eating for enjoyment is a sin. Give up salt and sugar for a week or a fortnight. You must be able to live on rice, dhal and bread without any pickle. Do not ask for extra salt for dhal, and sugar for tea, coffee and milk. People taking a non-vegetaraian diet should try their best to gradually give up flesh-eating as completely as possible. They will be immensely benefited.
5. MEDITATION
Have a separate meditation room under lock and key. If this is not possible then a corner of the room should be set apart with a small cloth screen or curtain drawn across. Keep the room spotlessly clean.
6. SVADHYAYA
Study systematically the Gita, Ramayana, Bhagavatam, Vishnu-Sahasranama, Lalita-Sahasranama, Adityahridaya, Upanishads, Yoga Vasishta, Bible, Imitation of Christ, Zend Quran, the Tripitakas, the Granth Sahib and other religious books from half an hour to one hour daily, and have Suddha Vichara (pure thoughts).
7. ELEVATE THE MIND
Learn by heart some prayer – Slokas (prayer verses), Stotras (hymns) and repeat them as soon as you sit in the Asana before starting Japa or meditation. This will elevate the mind quickly.
8. BRAHMACHARYA
Preserve the vital force (Veerya (seminal energy)) very, very carefully. Veerya is God in motion or manifestation (Vibhuti). Veerya is all power. Veerya is all money. Veerya is the essence of life, thought and intelligence. This instruction is not for bachelors only. Householders also must follow it as far as possible. They must be extremely moderate in their marital connections with their spouse. This is very important.
9. CHARITY
Do charity regularly, every month, or even daily according to your means. Never fail in this item. If necessary forego some personal wants but keep up this charity regularly.
10. HAVE SATSANG
Give up bad company, smoking, meat and alcoholic liquors entirely. Have constant Satsang (association with holy people). Do not develop any evil habits. Deliberately exert to develop positive virtuous qualities.
11. FAST
Fast on Ekadasi (11th day of the Hindu lunar fortnight) or live on milk and fruits only. Christians must fast on alternate Sundays, Muslims on alternate Fridays, and Parsis on a suitable day every fortnight.
12. JAPA MALA
Have a Japa Mala (rosary) around your neck or in your pocket or underneath your pillow at night. This will remind you of God. Twirl the beads during your leisure. You should repeat the Name at all times, whatever task you may be engaged in.
13. OBSERVE MOUNA
Observe Mouna (vow of silence) for a couple of hours daily. Do not make gestures and inarticulate noises during the period of silence.
14. DISCIPLINE OF SPEECH
Speak the truth at all cost. Speak a little. Speak sweetly. Always utter encouraging words. Never condemn, criticize or discourage. Do not raise your voice and shout at little children or subordinates.
15. BE CONTENT
Reduce your wants. If you have four shirts, reduce the number to three or two. Lead a happy, contented life. Avoid unnecessary worry. Be mentally detached. Have plain living and high thinking. Think of those who do not possess even one-tenth of what you have. Share with others.
16. PRACTICE LOVE
Never hurt anybody. Ahimsa Paramo Dharmah (Non-injury is the highest virtue). Control anger by love, Kshama (forgiveness) and Daya (compassion). Serve the sick and the poor with love and affection. This is service of God.
17. BE SELF RELIANT
Do not depend upon servants. Self-reliance is the highest of all virtues.
18. HAVE SELF-ANALYSIS
Think of the mistakes you have committed during the course of the day, just before retiring to bed (self-analysis). Keep a daily spiritual diary and self-correction register as Benjamin Franklin did. Maintain a daily routine and resolve-form. Do not brood over past mistakes.
19. DO YOUR DUTY
Remember that death is awaiting you at every moment. Never fail to fulfil your duties. Have pure conduct (Sadachara).
20. REMEMBER GOD
Think of God as soon as you wake up and just before you go to sleep, and at all other times whether engaged in any work or not. Repeat His Name always. Surrender yourself completely to God (Saranagati).
This is the essence of all spiritual Sadhana. It will lead you to liberation. All these spiritual canons must be rigidly observed. You must not give any leniency to the mind. c MMVII Privacy Policy

Judy老師
很慶幸在瑜珈的修行路上有你的身影
要修正自己的行為真的好難…..
今天下午學生跟我反應
她來上課時,好像是個不受歡迎的人
而且這個感覺來自我….
那個當下,我像個被抓到把柄的小孩
極力的否認我心裡有這樣的想法
在放下了不願承認的心後
我確實有傲慢態度與自我膨脹的心態
我很幸運對吧!!!!
她願意說出她真實的感受
另一方面卻也感到慚愧
在修行的這條路
我似乎還沒準備好要上路…..

恭禧你,已經正式踏上瑜伽之路,學習瑜伽最重要的是培養對身體的覺
察力,這是第一步,其次,是培養對心性的覺察力,這點最難,因為人的習
性太重,很難察覺到自我這個小我,和內在純淨的本我,有何不同,這是
一條漫長的路.
等到心靈的覺察力愈來愈敏銳時,大我,就油然而生,這是與天地合一的
我,也就是三摩地的境界,這是一條更漫長的路,但只要種籽埋下,時間
到了,就自動會開花結果,呵,我們一起等待花開的日子吧.((>_*))
