請問你為何瑜伽?是為了健康還是靈修?若是為了健康,你在做的應該是阿育吠陀。
阿育吠陀Ayurveda;一個來自不同國度的語言,看似很難理解,其實我們生活中像是對身體屬性,藥草特性等觀念,在阿育吠陀中也有類似的架構,而像是使用精油按摩與舒壓、瑜伽等,在阿育吠陀中都有相關的應用。
阿育吠陀Ayurveda是梵文;生命Ayur 與知識Veda 兩個字的結合,其內容就跟梵文原本的意思一樣,是關於生命的知識,結合飲食、藥理、心理、心靈、哲學等探討如何使人健康的科學。
其中對於健康的看法,認為身體與心靈是一樣重要的,身體的病痛無法使人快樂有活力,相對的,心理狀況不好時,也會造成外在身體的不適,只有在身心都健康時,才能使人的靈安穩的在身體這個容器裡面。而人不舒服;是因為身體的元素失去平衡了,到底哪些是基本的元素呢?
Why are you doing yoga? Is it for health or spirituality? If it is for health, what you are doing should be Ayurveda.
Ayurveda; a language from different countries seems to be difficult to understand. In fact, Ayurveda already there in our life. Such as the use of essential oil massage, essential oil for relaxing, yoga, etc., are part of applications in Ayurveda.
Ayurveda is in Sanskrit; the combination of the words Ayur and the word Veda, the content of which is the same as the original meaning of Sanskrit. Ayur means life, and Veda means knowledge. It is about the knowledge of life. Its science combines diet, pharmacology, psychology, spirituality, philosophy, etc. to explore how to make people healthy.
Among them, the Ayurvedic view of health is that the physical body and the spiritual mind both are equally important. A healthy person is on a good balance of both body and mind. The illness of the body cannot make people happy and energetic. In contrast, when the psychological condition is not good, it will also cause external body discomfort. Body is like a container for the soul; only when the body is doing good, the mind will be calm. When people are uncomfortable; that is because the elements of the body are out of balance. There are five basic elements.
