Do Goddess Yoga

Goddess Yoga means to pray to the Goddess, visualize the Goddess, identify with the Goddess and realize the Goddess within oneself. To visualize and to meditate on the Goddess awakes the energy of healing, happiness and enlightenment (Kundalini energy). Women become a Goddess. Men give up their ego and become a cosmic consciousness.

In Buddhism we have the Goddess Tara, who appears in various forms like the Yoga Goddesses, who are at least one Goddess in different forms. In China the Goddess Tara is called Kuan Yin (Guan Yin, Quan Yin) [1]. There are many wonderful pictures of Goddesses in the internet. Maybe you will find your personal Goddess, who leads you to your self-realization. [2]

The four main Goddesses in Yoga are Durga (the Goddess of power on a tiger)[3], Kali (the black Goddess with a sword)[4], Sarasvati (the white Goddess with a book)[5] and Lakshmi (the Goddess of luck with giver hands)[6]. They embody the four properties strength, peace, wisdom and love. If we want to be happy in our lives, we need all these four properties.

Steps

  1. Familiarise yourself with Durga Durga. She is the Goddess of strength. She rides on a tiger (or lion). She has the force of a tiger within herself. When she decides to reach her goal, she reaches it. She is a winner. She has many weapons around her, meaning, that she uses creative energy to realise her possibilities to reach her goals. We shake both fists near our head and think the word "power", until we feel the power of Durga in us. What are the goals in your life? In which way you can reach them? "My goal is ... My way to be victorious is ..."
  2. Familiarise yourself with the black Goddess Kali. She has a sword. She is able to sacrifice her ego and thus to get peace in her mind. We put our hands in the lap. We rub the earth with the feet, we feel the ground and think: "I let go of my false desires. I take the things as they are."
  3. Learn about Sarasvati. She is the Goddess of wisdom and creativity. She holds a book and a rosary in her hands. She roots herself in the holy books and in her own wisdom. What is your wisdom today? Track the index finger beside the head to the sky, move it a little and think, "My wisdom is ..."
  4. Understand Lakshmi. She is the Goddess of luck and happiness. Beside her head are two flowers. She sees the beauty in her life. She recognizes her world as a paradise. She is enlightened and has a paradise view of the cosmos. In her lap, she holds a pitcher full of gold pieces. She has inner and outer wealth and spends it on her followers. What is your wealth? Recognize yourself as the Goddess of wealth. Rub your hands on your belly and think the mantra: "The wealth in my life is... I am grateful for. .. "
  5. Be a mother of the earth. Consider all beings as your children. Identify yourself with them. Wish them luck and happiness. You are now Lakshmi with the giver hands. Move your hands and think, "I send light to ... May all people be happy. May the world be happy ."

  • Then the inner happiness awoke in her. The people felt the light and wanted her blessing. Anandamayi Ma from now on lived as a Karma Yogi, and traveled through India. She gave everyone her vision and inspired the people to lead a happy life and to practice spiritually every day.
  • Ananda means happiness. Anandamayi Ma [7] is the mother of happiness. She lived from 1896 to 1982 as a yogini in India. By her nature, she was friendly, calm and serene. She was a beautiful woman. She could tell wonderful stories. She loved to dance. She taught her followers to laugh, "Whenever you have the opportunity to laugh, lough as much as you can." We can see Anandamayi Ma as the incarnation of the Goddess of happiness Lakshmi. As Lakshmi she was happy in herself and gave consistently light to her fellow men. As spiritual head technology, she taught the 15 minute exercise. Who practise spiritually fifteen minutes each day, will receive her blessing. He will grow into the light. It does not matter what religion and what master one follows. So do Yoga, meditation, praying or reading in a spiritual book every day, and your life will be blessed. Anandamayi Ma was a great master of Hatha Yoga. She gave us the way of the comprehensive Hatha Yoga. The comprehensive Hatha Yoga consists of physical exercises, mental exercises, meditation and the path of embracing love (Karma Yoga).
  • As a young woman Anandamayi Ma practiced several years the physical exercises of Yoga, visualized herself as a goddess and lived three years in a great rest. She practiced her body postures (asanas)from her inner feeling. She practiced creative and intuitive Hatha Yoga. She visualized the Goddesses she needed. One after another the various Goddesses flowed through her mind. She visualized their forms, identified herself with them, said their names as a mantra and thus activated the kundalini energy in herself.

Warnings

  • The Goddess Yoga is the highest form of Yoga. With him we can awaken the kundalini energy (the inner happiness). We can quickly get into the light. The kundalini energy can be activated by two forms of Goddess Yoga. We can see ourselves as an enlightened being (Buddha, Angels, Goddess). And we can visualize the universe around us (nature, sky, stars) to get a cosmic consciousness.
  • Important in Goddess Yoga is that we are always well in touch with ourselves and our inner wisdom. We should never practise formally (without internal involvement). We should find creative our personal form of Goddess Yoga and practice with perseverance every day.
