There is yoga and there is mystic yoga, an expanded journey into the spiritual beating heart of the practice, from death cult origins to reinvention in the quantum age. This is not the postural yoga of looking and feeling chilled but something far more vital and challenging - a mysticism that challenges who we are and where we are in the universe, nothing more or less than an exploration of conscious,tracing the evolution of yoga, referencing the earliest classic texts of Indian philosophy and Buddhism and the Gitas. From the early Indian sub continent, passing through Europe and the US, expounded by gurus, intellectualised and sanitised by academics, the history of Yoga has always been permeated with a mystic essence that is too often neglected in our secular consumer age. This is true yoga, the unity of mind and matter, that takes us to a place where nothing exists apart from existence in its purest essence where everything is both known and unknown. Forget the dire politics of our age for a while.Tune into mystic consciousness and experience the essence of timeless Yoga.
