Ok, so yoga helps you realize your god-hood, become more god-like, whatever.
The point is, Rik, you use the practice of yoga (a regularly repeated ritual) because you believe it has something to do with you and God (or you being God, or whatever).
Rituals + God = Religion.
Your religion is a religion, Rik. Stop pretending your religion isn't a religion.
You state that yoga is a ritual.
I state that i am Santa.
I state that beanie is a cretin that judge without having the slightest clue of what is talking about.
Look beanie now i haven't time to waste but one day i will teach you what is the difference between
ritual and realization.
Have a good day anyway.
Man, I wish you knew how words and definitions worked. You act like you're the smartest goddamn person alive, yet you repeatedly demonstrate that you have no concept of how to properly use language. It's like your brain is a big soup of words that just fall out of your mouth with no rules, rhyme, or reason.
Any daily routine performed with spiritual intent is a ritual. Again...ANY DAILY ROUTINE PERFORMED WITH SPIRITUAL INTENT IS A RITUAL.
That means if you're doing yoga just for exercise, it's not a ritual; it's just a routine. If you're doing it to realize that you are part of the god-mind, then it is a ritual.
If you're brushing your teeth just to clean them, then it's not a ritual; it's just a routine. If you're doing it to realize that your teeth are one with the tooth god, then it's a ritual.
Your religion is a religion, Rik. Stop acting like your religion isn't a religion.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
